Why is the show Enlightened still on?
There are times when I turn to HBO and see the show Enlightened. Yes it is true that I watch the show, but not because I am a big fan of it. It is not a show where any one could be a big fan at all. It is a show based on a protagonist who is a divorced white woman who is obviously in her late thirties to early forties.
She has a nervous break down and goes to a get away camp in order to reclaim her life. Yet in doing so becomes a hippie who wants to take down corporations, and the so called man. Yet when looking at her character it does not seem like anything has changed about her.
There has not been any real evolution of her character in two seasons. In all honesty she is a major narcissist who continues to get worse and worse as time goes on.There is always this soothing music in the background when she thinks, but all her thoughts are not worth anything.
To be honest it is just a show about someone who has not agreed to live in the world around her. She wants to change the world for the better, but lives in a suburban neighborhood. All of the major characters are white, and middle class.
I give this show a rating of an F because evolution of the character is none existent. If you enjoy shows with the same script for an entire season than this program is for you. I recommend that HBO cancel this program immediately because there is no saving it. How it got renewed for another season is beyond me.
