Monologues. That should be Mike Flanagan's middle name: Mike Monologue Flanagan.

So much of his work consists of one person talking to someone else in some grandiose monologue that drags on a bit longer than I wish it would. It becomes it's most egregious when those monologues aren't in line with the theme of the show or when they talk for three minutes when they could get the same message out in thirty seconds.

It's exhausting. I zone out so quickly.

@filmboicole That is the point. If you can't handle the style, this is just not for you. Doesn't mean it's objectively bad, it's just not your cup of tea.
