MARGOT’S GOT MONEY TROUBLES maintaining their characters authenticity and honest portrayals that were established early on. There were no apologies for who they were or how they lived their lives. It felt like a consistent breath of fresh air as each episode unfolded. The final frames were a bull’s-eye moment creating a great conclusion as well as a possibility for another season.Â
David E. Kelley, creator, producer, and writer, knows how to craft a finely-tuned series based on the novel by Rufi Thorpe. The pacing and tone took audiences through every conceivable emotional journey with Margot (Elle Fanning) as she finds her way through the realities of motherhood. It is a coming-of-age story that does not disappoint due to the phenomenal cast assembled that includes Nicole Kidman, Nick Offerman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Greg Kinnear, Thadea Graham, and Marcia Gay Harden. They say it takes a village to raise a child and this whacky group of individuals sure does make for enjoyable, entertaining viewing. I was even sad sad to see it all end.Â
MARGOT’S GOT MONEY TROUBLES will surprise audiences with each plot twist and turn. It will make audiences feel empathy and compassion for those who don’t seem to fit into a normal mold of what society demands or expects. Thank heavens for how unique all of us truly are, and for Kelley who blatantly pointed this out every step of the way. Kudos.
