I absolutely love the show. Besides Letty, I love her mother. I think after "Downtown Abbey" this was perfect for Michelle Dockery. No other project could've shown her range, even though there're hints to Letty's behavior in Mary Crawley. If I'd known of the Letty character (hindsight) while watching DA I would've said "Yeah, I can see Michelle playing Letty. Whacha think?
shareYes!! I love this show!
I also was/am a Downton Abbey fan, and just started watching to see Michelle, not quite sure what to expect.
But, WOW!!! I had to go out last week, and forgot to set the DVR! I almost panicked, but found it On Demand!
That was close! LOL

My first love was Westworld and then this show.

So, Citizenright1, we won't be seeing you in ANY of the threads on "Good Behavior" Board. Oh, well, to each his own.

I love it very much.
shareI watched 3 on demand & really like it. I watched Judgement at Nuremberg from 6:40 to 9 pm on MGM HD & planned to watch all but I do have tendency to be restless & decided to record it instead. Great film, but hard to watch films from Concentration Camps in Germany. My late father saw them in person & told my older brother that they were even worse than what films showed after WWII.
I had to stop watching Judgement around 9 pm because I felt sick to my stomach.
I put Good Behavior on after 9:50 & was eating,and then had to clean up, etc. It is on demand on Comcast & much lighter fare than Judgement at Nuremberg, but not tonight's episode. At least this is not based on any factual.
It's a great series & I hope it's more than 10 Episodes.
I L O V E this show! And after bingeing on Downton Abbey this weekend, I went back to watch GB on-demand to see how phenomenal Michelle Dockery's range is! I got hooked on this show like I did Major Crimes & Ray Donovan. Thanks for opening up the topic!
shareThis was a great choice for Dockery. A complete opposite, of her character on Downton Abbey, performed with excellence has solidified her as an A+ actress. IMO.
I'm saddened though that it might not be renewed: http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/cancelled-or-renewed-status-of-cable-streaming-tv-shows-e-l/
I haven't seen any of Ray Donovan. I think I should..

On a scale of 1 to 10, I give it a 10! I love it. I watch it with full attention because I don't want to miss a single word or anything that happens on screen. I think the cast is superb -- Michelle Dockery's performance as Letty Raines is a tour de force. Here she is playing an American con artist who does such outrageous things and I couldn't find anyone more convincing. Great locations and interiors, too -- fantastic production values. Nice plot twists, too, with topnotch scripts. The dialogue is primo. For me, this is a perfect TV show, and, of course, it's for adults only, not kids. You're hearing this from someone who thought Downton Abbey was the best thing on TV in 25 years or more. I can't say whether I love it as much as you do, but I certainly can say I love it without any reservations. I think Michelle Dockery is simply a topnotch actress and it's a real privilege to watch her (and everyone else) in Good Behavior.
I fully agree with your words! Me and my wife, we love this show! Michelle Dockery is just great!!!
Best from Bucharest, Romania!
Definitely not for children to watch, or "prissy" adults who don't want to see anything resembling sex or hear those few words not allowed on U.S. network television. But for those of us adults willing to be entertained by material intended for adults only, it really couldn't be better. Every episode I've seen so far -- all of them from Season 1, in fact -- kept me fully engaged, on the edge of my seat, wondering what would happen next. And yes, Michelle Dockery is just great, as you wrote. Topnotch actress -- put her in the right movie role and I think she could win an Oscar without difficulty. It will be interesting to see whether Good Behavior will win an Emmy -- I think it should be nominated for Best Drama Series and also for Best Actress in a Drama Series. We shall see what happens as to Emmy awards. If I were a movie producer and/or director, I think I'd be scrambling to book Michelle Dockery in a lead role in a forthcoming dramatic motion picture. I'm sure she could do comedy as well, but I think a drama would give her a great opportunity to prove herself on the big screen. I believe she is of the same caliber of actress as Meryl Streep, but younger, of course.
