The mystery in Big Little Lies is compelling, yes, but the cast of characters is the reason to watch. Kidman is icy perfection; Woodley and Kravitz are both charming, if less impressive than the more veteran performers. The cast of supporting men, especially Parks & Recreation's Adam Scott as Madeline's second husband, is also strong.
This series is all about the women, though, and they deliver on all fronts. The Reesurgence has brought us another stellar entry in Witherspoon's golden era. Cross your fingers, because it marks only the beginning for her.
