Exactly. I see a lot of "woke" posts all around that condemns the show and calls it dangerous. I think that those people are being severely condescending towards the show's audience. Hollywood is so over the top, that no one in their right mind would think that it reflects reality in any meaningful way. Claiming that the show is dangerous is not far from claiming that The Sound of Music is dangerous towards our understanding of holocaust survivors. And this is exactly the point. Hollywood is not only trying to mimic the style, clothes, music etc. from that period, but also how stories were told. I think that the key was when they discussed whether to rewrite the ending of Peg/Meg. This was a discussion that pointed back on the show itself. They said they were doing it because they thought it would be more empowering for women in Hollywood. Obviously everyone is painfully aware of reality (and in this context: the real story of Peg), so rewriting history isn't the same as deleting it, it's a tool to inject hope into people and battle cynicism. This was also the function that movies had during that time and during the great depression, where reality was exceptionally bleak.

Camille deserved so much better. While the other main characters (Archie, Jack and Rock Hudson) have MANY insight in their lives, where they are from, their conflicts and motivation (all of the men show their passion, why they wanna be in hollywood, and how long they are willing to go to achive their dreams for MANY times in the show), camille has just a few scenes developing her character. Until more than half of the show they really just don´t show enough of her. They say she is the best actress in the studio but they don´t show that, she only is shown acting 2 times before the casting (the 2 maid scenes). They cast her as the protagonist of the movie but until half the show she is NOT a protagonist in the show. The show portrays her more like an idea ("we want a black woman in a lead role") than a human character that the audience roots to overcome racism in hollywood and achieve the goal of being a successful actress. I really wish they have invested in her character development as much as with the men.

@KC Woolsey it's not about "agreeing" really, no one is denying the actual history of hollywood and how it actually was back then. It's a reimagining though, a complete fantasy with realistic rules to see what would happen if these things had happened. Either way, a lot of these people existed and were who they were in the show. So even if they made a realistic show about Rock Hudson or Anna May Wong, he'd still be gay and she'd still be Chinese American.

Pink panda: The perception of Steven Spielberg on THE COLOR PURPLE by Hollywood was that he should be satisfied with the monetary success of his films so that the Oscars could help lesser known films. Judy Garland did give a better more emotionally involved performance but the film cost $5.4 million, double than it should. As a result, it would unlikely break even; it was a small story told on a big budget. In addition, she had no studio behind her and was not too well liked professionally. She and her producer husband should of been better.

There may also have been a minimalist costume design and so he was being tested. The film might have a specific audience target in mind. Since the executive fit the profile, the encounter was part of the entire audition process. And lastly, acting as a professionactor

I don’t think that the story is made for a second season

Hollywood is still tough on Asians even today, 2020.

Monkey Face yup. Much of the reason for Darren Criss’ success is that he does pass for white, and almost every “Asian” part is given to mixed-race actors anyway. I wish it didn’t have to be this way.

I read some really bad critics for this show. I wasn't sure about it in the beggining but by the end I was crazy about it, a beautiful story that got me sobbing in the final episode!

Camille is an amalgamation of Lena Horne and Dorothy Dandridge.

One of the greatest throwaway lines of the show, for those who know their Eleanor Roosevelt: “I’m meeting Hick for dinner.”

Oh shit, I had to google it but “Hick” was Lorena Hickok female journalist Eleanor Roosevelt was involved in romantic relationships with.

Avis was my favorite 🥰

I want to just shake the writers hand this felt like a big movie the way I binged this was amazing art .

Who else got really anxious towards the end of the show always expecting that something really bad would happen? All so good to be true... so much that in real life it really was. At least we got to keep this beautiful story on the show S2

Agus yup. So much of the experience of watching this series came from dreading what might happen, but surprisingly didn’t.

The show was good, but I STAYED for Anna May Wong. She ripped my heart and put it back together.

If you haven't already seen or read about the real woman please do so. Amazing, beautiful actress, with a low pitched sensuous speaking voice.

this video helped me a lot. I had such a hard time with this series. I loved it, it was fun and captivating, but something irked me. I think it was that all these characters get happy endings that didn't happen in real life. Especially the Women of Color. It makes sense, after seeing this video, that Ryan Murphy and the others wanted to redeem Hollywoods power player and give the people a happy ending.

*Hey, Netflix **7:33** you’ve got an editing mistake - where it should be Hattie McDaniel’s photo and video it’s Claire Wood* Please correct this! Edit: Yay! They correct it! :) ty

Such an amazing show and definitely needs more credit!

Thank you! Hollywood was a great series but its important that those who might not be aware of it's fiction elements have the facts to parallel. Cole Porter wasn't mentioned in this but he was in it too.

This series was wonderful! Everyone did such a marvellous job! Slightly off topic, i wish more Indians and south asians were also given a platform in hollywood ( generally, not this series of course) . Recently things have improved for other minorities and thats such a wonderful thing to happen. Indians are often just reduced to a joke...i wish they are given more of representation as well. I dont mean to take away anything from my comment, just something ive felt for a long time. I dont mean to cause any offence.

gray73 despite the fact that there are so many bollywood films staring indians, they continue to hold these indians to western standards with light skin and softer features. seeing diversity in hollywood, which is the biggest film industry in the world, and diversity in ways that don’t involve asian characters being defined by their asian-ness isn’t too much to ask for

@gray73 god forbid whites should do the same? Learn your history, they did and still do! Thats what this whole show is about. They prefered to have white women play chinese women and so on and so forth. And its barely changed since then.

Thank you. Finally, this was easier than surfing the net for each individual..

I LOVED THIS SERIES!! I just finished it and loved it with happy and sad tears 🙌🏽

While watching this I could tell it was historical fiction, but I never knew how much they pulled from actual history. Thanks for this informative video.

Can we all talk about how good was Archie's character? Made me cry a lot of times.

This is my favorite movie series, When is season 2 coming out

It's a miniseries, so as far as we know, there is no second season.

Brilliant! I was riveted for the entire series!

Joe Mantello was amazing in it. Great actor

I really did enjoy this series , I loved this era was so glamorous yet so dark I loved the set , the wardrobe, hair, make up , the cars , I really felt like I was there , I did struggle with Rock Hudson a bit in the beginning I didn’t see it and the storyline of him dating a black man as rock was known to have a very specific type but i was able to evolve with it and it ended up being good

Thanks for doing this history of Hollywood. The stories are really interesting. In addition, I LOVED the Netflix series, Hollywood!!!

This was bloody awesome the acting throughout was brilliant the storyline’s superb thoroughly enjoyed it.

i just binged the whole show just to watch this video loves it

i really enjoyed that the show didn’t throw a wrench in the plot like someone died, it was all relatively happy start to finish and i really liked that pure aspect to the show, it’s very uplifting

I loved this series so much. Hoping for more...

I absolutely loved this mini series, I could watch the cast all day ❤️

Posible to have a Season 2 for this?

We NEED A SEASON 2! NOW!😍

I adore Jim Parsons and his role in this movie is insane and he pulls it off like the star he is!!!

Let me be the one to say that Hollywood gives hints of the book Star Power written by the late Scotty Bowers. The underbelly of LGBTQ Hollywood actors being matched with dates from a gas station within the same town. Very little diversity being catapulted during the celluloid era in the golden age of entertainment. Mr. Bower himself told me once that it was rare for him to set up interracial relations, though it was done just as it was. Either way, I love this re-imagination through Ryan Murphy's perspective; it couldn't be more fitting.

Awesome show about time you got it right Netflix

Absolutely love this show. I may be 37, but there was something hilarious in hearing Jim Pearson swear.😹

That apology scene between Henry and Rock was extremely powerful. Both stole the show in my opinion.

6:05 Holy crap Jim Parsons looks exactly like Henry Wilson! And even Jake Picking looks really similar to Rock Hudson!

I really like the series. It shows the hidden dark secrets behind the bright spotlights of Hollywood glamour. The casting couch, racism, women equality, and homophobia.

This series is brilliant!!!...I wonder how Hollywood would be if is was like this series.

I watched the series today and it was incredible!
