This season was absolutely horrible. I really enjoyed the previous seasons, but it's quite apparent that the writers have been changed, or else this mess of a season wouldn't have been made.
It takes some fine acting to make 6 episodes of mostly dialogue interesting, compelling and above all terrifying, loved it. Kinda reminded me of Mindhunter.
Do I want a third season? Sure, this is one of my favourite book series of all time.
Would I be surprised if it all ends here? Not at all.
'Clunky' is the best word I can think of to describe this entire show. Amazing costume design, amazing special effects, amazing soundtrack and (for the most part) amazing actors. Amir Wilson killed it this season. Episodes 4 or 5 were so good I thought we were going somewhere (btw, bring back those writers who helped Thorne in those episodes, for the love of God).
But the problems are still there. Even after two whole seasons, scenes are edited poorly, Jack Thorne's writing is abysmal and the pacing is extremely inconsistent. Those are problems that were more or less understandable for the first half of season 1, but we're two thirds of the way in. What did the witches even do so far, apart from dramatically staring at walls and talking about prophecies? What was the point of showing Mary Malone wandering through Citagazze for two episodes?
A shame, considering how good all other aspects of the show are. I tried to keep an optimist mindset, and I'll be watching if a third season ever comes out, but I can now affirm that this adaptation has been mostly a disappointment.
Wow, Marisa certainly learned real fast how to use a GPS and drive a Tesla.
I expected more from the 2nd season generally and from this episode specially :disappointed:
I think they made a good choice of actor for the young Red/not Red.
In the beginning of the episode I was afraid that a Alien come out of the Mother and ruin everything, but in the end my ideia was better than the actual end.
THAT was the ending? What the hell????? There needed to be at least one or two more episodes, 'cuz making the portal just open means nothing! I found it funny that the people walking in were just like "oh look at this" all happy, thinking they're just seeing some attraction....they entered Nazi America, they should've been a bit more scared.
Yeah, there needed to be at least one more episode to conclude this...showing the Nazi's truly fell after that...and that black ppl were treated better.
Also, I hope Yukio and Robert met???
And Kido got out of the Yakuza somehow so he could be reunited with his own kid.
I was really confused by the last time jump to be honest. Guess I'll have to watch it again to make total sense of it.
Well...duh.....so many questions were left unanswered.
My God. I will miss these people! Thanks for all the fun!
I'm laughing and crying at the same time.. that was great ending, but I would like to watch more. I miss this show already, especially characters, because they were so special. There isn't other tv show that make you feel so positive like Ted Lasso did :blue_heart::heart:
WTF?!? Is this a joke?! Are they trolling us?!
So, Mother gave birth to one of the giant serpents that once roamed the planet and went extinct? Why?? What purpose does that serve? Apart from a handful of people, there isn't anything for it to eat anyway, so it will just go extinct again. Is that what it is? The planet's defense system against invaders? Because if it wasn't the digital simulation of Campion (the Creator), who/what impregnated Mother after all?
And what about the prophecy? The very obvious reference to the Virgin Mary and Joseph? Or is it Eve and Adam now that we have a snake? And the revelation that the indigenous population was Neanderthals that devolved into the "creatures" made no sense.
I hope the creator of the series, Aaron Guzikowski, never gets to work writing scripts again.
So she learned from the letters that Melmont lied and tried to steal the money from her. That he was a mass murderer.
Yet she decided that it would be wise to meet that man again, all by herself. Seriously, how stupid is that plot?
