Lucy Spiller is the editor of "glossy tabloid" magazine DirtNow in Los Angeles. Overseeing a crack team of reporters and paparazzi, Lucy is able to manipulate the lives of numerous celebrities -- although she isn't immune to the charm and charisma of studly young actor Holt McLaren. Lucy's righthand pal at the magazine is Don Konkey, a schizophrenic photographer whose mental illness makes him a real wild card.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Distasteful and half-baked, Dirt lacks the showbiz authenticity to give its satire sting or the depth to make Courteney Cox's antihero a plausible character.

The longest hour I've had in a while. Go to Full Review Mike Kelly Toledo Blade 09/04/2019
As it is, Dirt spends way too much time on the photographer and his hallucinations... The cable network will almost certainly be sweeping Dirt off its schedule long before the current season ends. Go to Full Review Scotsman Staff Scotsman 09/04/2019
A fantastically trashy series. Go to Full Review OC Register Staff Orange County Register 09/04/2019
Dirt is quite the wallow in decadence -- an acid, unsparing and stylishly over-the-top take on the entertainment industry and the backhanded star-making machinery therein. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

M.S. B @RT51179168 05/26/2024 A surprising good find, with decent acting, good writing, and an Emmyworthy turn by Ian Hart as a schizophrenic, and surprisingly moral, paparazzo photographer for a sleazy tabloid. See more Read all reviews
