Pepsi Netflix series-5 stars

I posted this on the Movie thread...but it's good enough for it's own.
Maybe you remember this being in the news in the 90's...I did.
A very entertaining 4 part series....well worth watching.

Todd Hoffman plays himself. He could be a major actor in Hollywood.
A true character....very funny.

The Hoffman dude is a 'larger than life' character. I thought he stole the show.

He got totally effed over by that judge.... Total BS.. With today's interest/social media, he would have won, no doubt. I've seen on a few sites that people are pi$$ed at Pepsi all over again!

It was fun...Avanati deserves to be in jail, but its interesting to see the genesis of where he ended up.

Any comments about the Hoffman character? (the wealthy backer)

He is a person that would be fun to meet.

I was surprised at how it ended. But that was just the "opinion" of one lady. A jury would have rendered a different verdict. There's a reason they have disclaimers in certain ads.

I didn't know that Avenatti had that history when watching the docu-series.
It's done now.

Really enjoyed it. So what's the story about the Harrier in the hanger? Also they never mentioned what John Leonard did in life, but her apparently works for the National Park Service.
