    Problem: Sexual harassment is a joke. Before “Insatiable” even catches viewers up to present day, it makes a very poorly timed joke equating being accused of sexual harassment with being a victim of sexual harassment. While introducing Bob Armstrong (Dallas Roberts) as a defense attorney by day, pageant coach by night, the pilot uses flashback to s...

    Problem: One of the protagonists acts like a pedophile. By the second episode, Bob is leaning toward “total creeper” classification, and that’s not the intention. Sure, he’s kind of contradicted himself with the whole “I don’t believe in destiny, but I do believe in fate” stuff (which pops up to contradict itself in the finale, as well), and it was...

    Problem: Characters’ immediate motivation is transparent, and their ongoing motivation is indiscernible. Oh no, already to Episode 3, and no updated plot summary. Here goes: Patty met Bob, Bob recruits Patty as his beauty pageant contestant, and now Bob is seeking assistance from another coach — his former mentor, Stella Rose (Beverly D’Angelo). Mu...

Though nothing about Patty’s relationship with her best friend, Nonnie (Kimmy Shields), is handled well, the unspoken acknowledgment of Nonnie’s homosexuality lasts too long, especially when the only perceptible reason is because the writers like winking at the audience too much. For instance, after ...

  6. Aug 9, 2018 · Insatiable is not only cruel and fatphobic; it’s boring, too. Here are nine things you should know about Insatiable’s first (and hopefully only) season. Spoilers follow.

  7. Aug 10, 2018 · If Insatiable only stuck to this ridiculous premise and went balls-to-the-wall camp, it might have worked. Instead it tries to infuse wokeness, horror, satire, and teen melodrama all into one.
