The ads I had seen about The Regime seemed to intimate that this was a comedy of sorts. Unfortunately, I didn't laugh or even smile once in the first episode. It seems to wildly veer from a serious story, to a bizarre one, sometimes in the same scene. I don't know what the writers were trying to accomplish here, but they failed miserably. I expected much more from a mini series with Kate Winslet starring in it but so far, I'm a bit befuddled. I'll probably give it one more episode before completely bailing on it but I am not very hopeful. What a disappointment. If you were looking for Mare of Eastown, this ain't it.
