TV Review. Paul T Goldman. Series. Stan.

This was really weird, like the weirdest thing I have seen for a while.

A misogynistic anti-social personality disordered man is prey to a con woman . He goes on the war path and his fragile ego leads him to invent a huge international organised crime conspiracy rather than saying to himself, "I was a foolish idiot and got ripped off because I am a hater who will believe anyone who panders to my prejudices". And then he write books and a screenplay, makes himself to be James Bond. He becomes a bit pathetic and it's more and more obvious he is not all there.

The last half hour is like that episode of Married With Children where the Bundys try to sell a story and the tv producers see through them easily.

It's easy to pity Paul, the disordered are often pitied because it is so obvious they are broken, until you remember he stalked people and slandered people causing real harm. He saved no one.

hobbits?? as a portrait of a personality disordered person, 4 hobbits

I watched this a few weeks ago and my thoughts were exactly the same as yours. It's like he didn't want his story to end and the production company thought "fuck it. We're getting paid for this shit regardless".

5/5 hobbits for weirdness.

This is what you get when a personality disordered person writes the story. A story that is hard to comprehend.

The last 30 minutes are when reality lands as the producer tells the real fact based story with actual proof.

I don't think I got to the end cos I thought it went on too long as it was. Maybe I should finish it.

These are my thoughts: Wife #1 wanted a Green card and not to be a stay at home maid to a controlling, pedantic, weird little man.

He makes out that this could happen to anyone with wife #2 but shit there was red flags flapping loudly with her. No dude, you just an idiot.
