Meh...

Bigger budget doesn't equate to better quality.
I'll reiterate what's been shared in previous reviews.
Hulu's version is just better. HBO's production value usually delivers. But in this particular case... I couldn't even finish the first episode. Furthermore, A Killing in a Small Town with Barbara Hershey is still better than HBO's version. At least with what they had to work with at the time. But Candy's Biel and Lynskey have incomparable on screen chemistry. The casting in Hulu's Candy is also exceptional. The actors mirrored the real life characters, which further added to suspending my disbelief. In the end it comes down to personal preference I suppose.
Five stars for budget and effort. Unfortunately fell flat for me, personally.
