First it was the early scenes of comedy stand-up with the outstanding Mrs. Maisel, and now the team of Daniel Palladino and Amy Sherman-Palladino take on the prestige modern ballet world - with humour fully intact. Like Mrs. Maisel, this new series moves at a rapid pace in a world that is renown for stuffy and snobby ballet patrons. In the Sherman/Palladino world, it is a cutthroat industry, made even more delicious with the New York and Paris rivalry, led by characters that are engaging with their wild behaviour and antics. Great to see Luke Kirby brought back into the fold after serving the Palladino's well in Mrs. Maisel. The highlight is Charlotte Gainsbourg, and to top it all of is Simon Callow. Best of all is Lou de Laâge, as the rebel, Cheyenne, adding the sparks that are going to fly in every direction. A sure winner, and pure enjoyment in another brilliant satirical work by those two dudes whose long names I'm too lazy to type up again...
