Critics Consensus

Pam & Tommy sometimes undercuts its own critique of cultural voyeurism with lurid stylization, but Lily James' performance gives this sleazy opus an undeniable heart.

If Pam & Tommy wanted to do something like justice to Anderson, it might have given her more activity outside of whimpering and sighing.

The twist is that this is a true-crime story where the crime is barely recognized as a crime, because it takes place during an era which didnt understand it.

Given how frequently the show remarks on consent and the lack thereof in its discussions about the commoditisation of Pam and Tommys bodies, it demonstrates a remarkable level of hypocrisy.

The only major flaw lies in the slightly sour taste left when pondering the questions of authorship and morality that are posed as a result of the show’s existence.

1/5

There’s an important story buried under all of this, but Rogen and Goldberg haven’t found it. Instead, their take is more reminiscent of a "where are they now" tabloid article.

Despite her name coming first in the title of the show, Anderson is an afterthought to the men Pam & Tommy prioritises.

I think the 78% is right on target for RT. Pam & Tommy is a rollicking, campy series which grabs the viewer right away. The performance by Sebastian Stan is electric, to say the least, and there is true chemistry between the leads. I could think of others to cast instead of Seth Rogen; perhaps John C. Reilly. Rogen turns in a truly suspect, unlikeable characterization. We feel the ultimate pain it caused to Pamela Anderson,.

A little "surprisingly unexpected scenes" at times, to say it one way, but the focal point of the story was to humanize Pam mainly, and erasing some of the image we all had of her, precisely for the media attention she had for all that video thing

I enjoyed this series. Not sure how true and correct it was, but still entertaining

Echoing almost beat-for-beat the source article from Rolling Stone Magazine, the pitiful strutting on soapboxes about consent without actually getting said consent isn't insightful or even cleverly written.

Seth Rogen Is The Most Under The Radar Best Producer In Hollywood, The Series Is Beautifully Written And Acted, The Directing Is Fresh And It Looks Beautiful,. I Literally Cried At The End, Its In Oar Emotionally With Anime Slice Of Life. I Love That It's Respectful Of Pamela Anderson And Tommy While Being Outrageous With Its Storytelling Its Perfectly Balanced... 100/100

With it's limited source material, this show gets too padded out over it's 8 episodes and with that comes a lack of interest to what is happening with it's main players. It also suffers from some tonal consistency at times. Okay
