Did you know that a big, famous Game of Thrones actress made a splash with her new show?
The show is called "Joan", a new series that just came out on The CW. What's most special about it, is that it’s all about real life! The entire series follows the fascinating and sometimes difficult journey of Joan Hannington (played by the incredibly talented Sophie Turner). We see a "Joan" that looks to rise from humble beginnings as a housewife with a very "un-superhero like" back story!
It starts in London, England back in 1980! "Joan" follows her adventures and even more her crimes as she makes a real impact, and it may not be in the world of being a hero!
With this fresh start, the series shows a really special aspect to this woman and her growth as she rises from a victim to a person of "remarkable ambition," ultimately becoming the most notable and powerful diamond thief in Britain.
For those who are super invested, and always pay attention to critical acclaim, this is the news you have been waiting for! There are only a few reviews out right now! However, the current score for the show is 85% on Rotten Tomatoes! The score also means it received a rating of 6.9/10!
As new reviews keep getting added, the rating will likely shift, and many fans have strong opinions as well!
For those who are super curious, this series seems to be full of compelling storytelling, showcasing its time period of the 80s with plenty of cool looks!
Critics gave high praise and appreciation!
However, as you can see with other critical feedback there are a few criticisms and shortcomings!
If you're not really looking for a true-crime show that dives deep into every detail you might miss some special elements.
The big reason?
There is no need to wait! The show takes on all of those great elements of that special decade that everyone enjoys.
From a very cool look for all those in this decade, and how everything is a throwback from music, clothing to everything else you might be expecting!
That doesn't stop there either, and includes how it is possible to really bring that era to life with specific elements to this time, and make it so remarkable. The actors are so cool too!
For those of you that are always paying attention to casting you'll recognize some major stars. Frank Dillane is the co-star in this series, and Turner doesn't stop there. If you're looking to find some talent it’s worth giving this show a chance.
As the show's audience increases, it will likely keep moving up in its Rotten Tomatoes rating!
This might be one of the shows that you check out!
It will not only make you appreciate "Joan", and the fantastic acting that takes the series to new highs, but will also leave audiences wanting to explore new and exciting crime shows.
