Ooolong 4,440 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 This is the official thread for Feud: Bette and Joan. There have been quite a few threads made about promotional projects and even personal reviews but to my knowledge there hasn't been an official one for people to comment on while the season progresses, so here it is.

Yo GagaGaga 6,541 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I'm loving the show so far, I think its getting better with each episode. I do wish Susan would give it more attitude and Jessica to talk more like Joan and less like herself, I can't really see Jessica as Joan mostly bc of the voice. Maybe if she talked more delicately and smooth, bc her natural voice is pretty gravely but other than that I love it, the show is making me slowly obsessed with Bette Davis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it's getting better with each episode. The Unbannable Chanteuse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTPOPe 9,895 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I love it. Kinda wish we'd get to see a full Remake of 'What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?' with Jessica and Susan, that'd be superb. Also living for Judy Davis. But I just realized the episode tonight is 5/8 which means it's already halfway through Spoiler I feel like I'm the only one liking Joan Crawford more than Bette Davis Stream The Love Invention Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooolong 4,440 Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 Finally got around to watching the most recent episode. I loved it, as I have all of the episodes so far! Sarah Paulson's take on Geraldine Page was beautiful and also quite sad. I loved that they gave more insight, or perhaps just a vision, to Joan's award acceptance campaign. It gave more depth and meaning behind Joan's decision to do it, other than a petty feud. The Unbannable Chanteuse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooolong 4,440 Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 It also made Davis' loss seem quite more devastating than most would think. The Unbannable Chanteuse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
