You forgot to add these two important words to the end of your
sentence: "TO ME".
It was "damned entertaining" TO YOU. Now, I never saw it, but
if it was 3,000,000,000 times better than the TV show, it would still
be one of the most boring movies in history...TO ME.
I tried a couple times, but I could never make it more than 10 minutes
into a "Fireflop" episode without falling asleep. Ponderous, man,
just ponderous...
That's why I don't hold out much hope for this new show starring
the lovely and talented Eliza D. After wasting Fox's time, money
and airwaves with his last exercise in ennui-don, and getting his ass
fired for grinding down the "Wonder Woman" movie rights franchise
to a useless mire of half-assed story ideas, no finished scripts,
and casting indecision, I can only reasonably expect more of
the same from "Josh".
But TO YOU, it might be a "damned entertaining" TV show...to
each his own, but I'm with the former Fox executives and the viewing
public on his last few "efforts"...
