    Is nobody watching this? It's a good drama. You got Cuba Gooding as OJ, Travolta as Robert Shapiro, and David Schwimmer as Mr. Kardasian (OJ's friend). There are other stars in here you'll know and the show is done well. It's almost got a "The Wire" feel too it as you see the motivations and even personality quirks of all the major players from Shapiro, to the prosecuter, to even Johnny Cochran. It's 3 episodes in and I highly recommend it.

    My wife makes me watch this. Is okay even though I have a hard time trying to believe that tiny Cuba Gooding is OJ Simpson (plus his over-acting doesn't help). David Schwimmer is very good here as Robert Kardashian and Travolta is excellent as Shapiro. What I don't like is the unneeded almost obligatory Kardashians scenes showing the children versions of Kim, Khloe, Kourtney etc and mom Kris. I mean come on! Don't we already get enough of these trashy females to also get their younger versions in every episode? Kris was already divorced from Robert at that time. We really DON'T NEED THE FREAKING KARDASHIANS in this series!

    seems to me like they're making fun of the kardashians more than anything. The beginning of episode 3 when they are at the restaurant on Father's Day was a pretty obvious shot/troll job at them

    That should be the end of their participation in this production. I am afraid it is not.
