Insultingly stupid ending after investing three seasons..
The Indian stuff feels like a pointless side story only serving to fill some time. I hope I'm wrong and that it somehow becomes relevant later.
not a great time to be Holden in this episode.. everyone was wayyy to harsh on him imo. pedophile or not, that teacher was creepy. parents asked him to stop tickling and giving money to their children and he should have respected that and stopped, he has no excuse.
i know i keep siding with Holden but i don’t think he was in the wrong for using that kind of vocabulary with a Serial Killer... it did get him to talk after all. i do think he shouldn’t have tried to cover it up though.
a bit disappointed by Wendy for stabbing them in the back like that although i get where she comes from. but the whole thing could have jeopardized their research or have Holden fired..
Gregg however can burn in hell.
really good episode - felt nice to have one more Holt-centric and it fit really well with the theme and Manson interwiew.. speaking of the devil, he might have been the highlight of the episode - but to me the best parts were Gregg getting constantly kicked out of important discussions haha
also the dude at the party who wouldn’t let Wendy alone gave me major Mr.Collins vibes...
Overhyped episode. Nothing new was said. This is like one of those reality reunion episode. I'm not a fan of the format.
In Episode 1, they just pretty much skipped Ye Wenjie's backstory before Red Coast. They crammed everything into 5 minutes. Episode 2 is called 'Red Coast' but we barely pass any time at Red Coast base. Most of the episode is just present day characters talking and playing the VR game. In fact, we barely spent any time inside Red Coast itself. It doesn't even feel like a secret base/project. Besides the death of Ye Wenjie's dad - which wasn't adapted for censorship reasons -, nothing in this adaptation is honestly better than the Chinese version. I knew from the get go that 8 episodes, each with less than 60 minutes, would not be enough, but they are rushing. There's no way her character and motives will come across as understandable. This whole story is based on her past actions.
the way this show thrives on making random characters sympathetic in the most mawkish way before brutally killing them off is actually sick!
Easily the best episode of TV I've seen in years. Phenomenal.
It's all coming together, with what I think we're the best two episodes of the show. That was some ridiculously good writing and acting.
I hope this is the last season its so dsmn corny now ughh Im only watching cause Im already invested and I loovveee the AI guy
Absolute painful watch at times - the plot holes were a many. Imagine going to apprehend an arms dealer ALONE, for starters. S1 way better.
Fish could win an Emmy, but Forks is a better episode, a journey off the chaos, not into it
Definitely expected a bigger finish to the first season but I really loved watching this series and happy for the season two set up!
Ugh that really pisses me off, the way Calvin was treated!!!! Don't even get me started on that priest :angry:
Kurt Russell to the rescue! As I hoped for, he managed to get things interesting when there's no MUTO around. And I really hope we get to see more of those darn things in the next episodes, they always save them for just a few seconds at the end of the episode, it's getting annoying.
Oh boy, this was freaky af! It felt a bit awkward, amateurish and b-movie-ish, in places, but the overall ambience was eerie enough, sometimes creepy and even downright disturbing at the very end. Hope this turns out to be a solid horror series, since there's a severe lack of those, these days.
Yeah, this is absolute gold
Wow, so unoriginal !!! So soon you figure out the killer, not twist no nothing, dragging season, nothing fresh except from Selina. It is time to cancel it. This does not need anything more. The season was mediocre at best with a very very underwahlimg finale.
Unfortunately, there is no tension here in the first episode and not the desire for a sequel with me.
I think I’ll give the series another episode to convince me, although unfortunately that will be a bit difficult.
These are the worst henchmen and criminals on the face of the earth. I can't believe a major plot point is a bunch of Guyanese dudes not being able to tell 2 white kids apart. Same hoodie, same bike, sure but gotdamn.
I’m enjoying the show so far, I like this genre of criss crossing crime dramas, but I have to say the female cop Harmony is the most annoying character! She could say pass the salt and make it a verbal assault. She's just annoying and poorly acted. The phone conversation with her superior for example. It's just cartoonish, as is her entire performance so far. Her entire personality and behavior ruins any immersion.
The story doesn’t seem to flow well either but that being said I’m still interested in seeing how everything plays out. I’ll definitely keep watching but something feels off with this show.
what a strong episode, awesome!
WHATTTTTTTTTTTTT IS GOING ON :rotating_light:
It's been a week after having watched this, and I've just now noticed that this was the season(series?) finale. Probably not a great sign.
:person_shrugging:
God, this was not an easy watch. Not recommended for already sensitive Sunday nights.
I feel like i'm totally addicted to this series, can't stop watching ever single episode. I hope they'll give us a second season, i hope, cmon, stoodisss.
That scene with the social worker hurts so much. It will be carved inside you. Donald Glover did it again.
Yep! Glad I was right again: What an unnecessary season, guys!
Ok. The season finale wasn't that great but the end had me ROLLING lmao I'm excited for what is coming next.
Someone taught me once that when you are trying to solve other people's problems, you never think about your own.
