I want to laud this production for being more historically accurate than most films and TV shows that take place in studio era Hollywood. I'm very knowledgable about the history of classic American film, and am often irritated at historical carlessness or ignorance I see in these sorts of productions. But this one hues closer to the actual people, films, and events of the year or so that it portrays than most. And it's characters and plots impressively utilize what went on in public and private in Hollywood, and in world history, to tell a fictional story. Yes there are inaccuracies, but they are relatively minor.
I agree with many other reviewers that the production values of this series were excellent, as were nearly all of the actors. And I agree it's a shame that the series did not continue, as there was plenty of interesting plot and character developments that could have played out.
