FX’s new medieval drama (http://www.tvinsider.com/article/40187/neil-patrick-harris-on-best-time-ever-i-have-no-intention-of-it-failing/) is "made with passion by a passionate man, Kurt Sutter,” says Willa Paskin. She adds: "But passion can be desirous of the craziest things. In this case, passion has called into being an incoherent Game of Thrones knock-off full of senseless carnage, wooden performances, a dash of nudity, and a few scenes so poorly executed they play like farce. The Bastard Executioner is monstrously fetid, a mound of gorgonzola stuffed into a dead catfish’s gullet, smoked in sulfur, doused with heavy cream and left to rot for weeks inside a port-o-potty in full sun.”
