I thought OJ's son was the killer.

But it got decent reviews, so I gave it a shot. I'm in. I was really impressed by Cuba Gooding Jr. as OJ. He doesn't look like him at all but his portrayal was very interesting and well done IMO.


I agree. He's doing the best he can. Cuba does have OJ's voice, cadence, mannerisms and facial expressions down pretty well. So I can overlook the fact that he's half OJ's size and doesn't look like him.

I found it to be interesting and plan on sticking with it. I suspect some of it is real which was confirmed by Narcia Clark in an interview I saw today.

I was in college at the time all this went down. While I was aware of the situation, I simply never followed any of the details. With that, I should know more about this dead horse than I actually do.

As expected, John Travolta is horrible. I think David Schwimmer is doing a fine job, as is Cuba. So far, it's very interesting to me since I've never followed the story in any detail. I will keep watching.

Everybody else is OK. Especially the Marshia Clark actress. She looks and sounds just like her.

I mean it's tough to accept anybody as O.J. but he's pulling it off as best he can. You can't over look the fact that he's too short and not strong enough to fully portray O.J. But that's fine.


Yeah Travolta is just bizarre. The guy playing Johnnie Cochrane is great. The guy playing Judge Ito looks like he came straight from Madame Tussaud's.

Travolta continues to just be an absolute disgrace.
Agreed on the guy playing Cochrane....he's awesome.

More of the same for me after episode 2. I'm learning way more than I should be....it continues to be very interesting to me.

It's gotten to the point that I'm enjoying Travolta's bad acting in this role.

I know how Shapiro speaks. Slow and deliberate with that unique cadence. And Shapiro makes simple statements so dramatic. Travolta is doing it but badly. And he just looks like a complete fool because you're always saying to yourself, "That's John Travolta trying to be Robert Shapiro."

That's why you have to get "no name" actors to do these type of roles for these TV things. But Travolta is desperate so he took it.

They should have played the Howard Stern prank call to Peter Jennings in this episode.

Travolta is also a producer.

He sucks, but whatever.

If Robert Kardashian was this much of a namby-pamby whiny ass bitch in real life, it's no wonder Kris absolutely owned his ass.

Cuba Gooding is fine. The guy playing Chris Darden is pretty good.

Courtney B Vance as Cochran is great...but the funny thing is that he's basically playing his character from L&O Criminal Intent...just as a defense attorney.

Bruce Greenwood as Gil Garcetti is good.

All in all, a television cast filled with "that guys" will work for this type of stuff.

The scenes with the Kardashian kids in episode 2 seemed unnecessary.

Anyone know who is playing F Lee Bailey?

You're right. I can't think of the name of the woman that was killed around the time NBS got killed ..but they were friends and both got drugs from Glen Rogers.

A few funny lines from the show.

Kato: I'm not really an official person. I just live here.

And another from the egotistical, self-serving Robert Shapiro...

Shapiro: There's another unjustified villain in all of this.

Kardashian: Who, A.C.?

Shapiro: No, me

:lol: :lol:

Not much talk here lately, but I think this thread deserves a bump. The casting in this show has been tremendous. I had my doubts about Cuba, but he has done a phenomenal job, and Nathan Lane has been great so far as well. Even Travolta has been good in the last episode with Cochran's coup of taking over lead counsel.

Couldn't disagree more. Cuba does not look like OJ at all, and certainly doesn't sound like him. Don't like Travolta or Schwimmer either, as they are too tall. Shapiro and Kardashian were short little weasels.

Cochrane is spot on, though. So are Marcia and Darden.

I was sure that the guy playing Fred Goldman was indeed Fred Goldman. Judge Ito is good as well.

You listen to Danny Mac, your opinions are already meaningless.
