The eminently talented Spencer gives it the best she's got, despite some truly cringeworthy dialogue. But once her business is established as a success near the end of Chapter 2, the plot devolves into a series of telenovela storylines.

It's been long past time for Madam C.J. Walker to get her due on the small or big screen, but this series is sadly a disservice to her.

It is decidedly an old-school, good-time miniseries dropped into a world that will measure it by upper-crusty limited series standards.
