This show is a mess that doesn't make any sense, so far. I don't see why it's getting praised.
The action scenes with the jackals remind me of Eternals. And that isn't praise, by the way.
Once again the most interesting part of this whole fucking show is the stuff that gets the least amount of time. I could not care less about the sitcom shtick and I wish they would stop ripping off other shows when it serves little purpose except to make this all ridiculous when it could've been so much better.
In the movie Far From Heaven, you get this practically picturesque town and home life of a housewife in Connecticut. It's gorgeous and full of colors and 50s/60s "retro", what have you. It looks so perfect and lovely yet hides all sorts of ugliness underneath the perfect veneer of "All American Dream". Imagine that kind of set up but with horror and mindfuckery and that could've been THIS FUCKING SHOW.
Each episode continues to disappoint.
Each episode shows me how this would have been better served in a binge-watch (if they ever fucking do anything with the reveal).
Each episode annoys me with a pointless, obnoxious laugh track.
And each episode has me not giving a single damn about this couple or buying into any of their "chemistry" or love. This relationship was developed completely offscreen, and now I'm just supposed to believe they are some shining example of True Love because Marvel clearly wants Young Avengers? Nope. Not happening. I demand better writing and pacing, thank you.
Olsen and Bettany are very talented and capable actors in other projects but here, I can't buy anything between them.
The pacing is just painful and not at all suspenseful. There's tension and then there's annoying the shit out of your audience. This show is the latter.
This show continues to be the epitome of "my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined".
This show is terrible. They spend soo much time ripping off shows Bewitched, I dream of Jeanie, Family Matters, Brady Bunch, Lost, The Truman Show, Stepford Wives, Rick and Morty (the episode where they're inside a simulation) and more. Except they don't get any of it right. They have none of the humour or tension of the shows that they are parodying. Then in the last two mins of every episode they do throw in a lame attempt at being suspenseful or ominous showing that something is 'off' with the world. However this does nothing to progress the plot, develop the characters or genuinely build suspense.
What a boring start for a tv show. Not even sure if I'll be watching the next episode. Very disappointing. Also, a lot of weird/illogical things happen.
what kind of ending is this. Okay the ship is no more but they could have flashed forward Abit to give it a nice ending of sort. Bad ending of a good show
Unbelievable. I slogged my way through so much dreck this season because I was looking forward to the Final Confrontation between Nathan James and the battleship and then...this. Nothing. A sucker punch from a ship that should not have gone undetected and the James is out of commission. And to make matters even more annoying (if that's possible), the idiots on the battleship then allow themselves to be broadsided by the crippled James. Unreal. Yeah, there were some nice moments and callbacks in this finale, but none of it matters when the epic battle that I'd been looking forward to so much simply failed to materialize at all. Very disappointing.
This was just bad. Nicholas's infodump about his familiar wasn't great writing, and neither was the Harvey/Roz romance. Weakest episode thus far. I feel like we're straying a bit from this season's focus, which I assumed would be Sabrina somehow becoming top boy/high priest. That's been absent since the pilot. The Zelda stuff is okayish. 2/5.
I thought there would be a bit more to it than this - some commentary, cast/writer interviews, some depiction of how the timeline fits together. But it's just a glorified YouTube edit.
