"The Full Monty" revival disappoints with flawed sequel.
The Full Monty, a film about a group of unemployed men who form a striptease group, has been adapted into an eight-episode TV series on FX and Hulu. The series, which reunites the original cast, shifts its focus away from stripping and instead explores the high cost of living, the decline of the National Health Service, and the failing education system in contemporary Britain. The show balances humor and tragedy while addressing important issues, and some cast members say they would be interested in returning for another season.
