Probably should have been two separate episodes. I enjoyed the first half but the second half though curious, was mostly spent rolling my eyes at young adult bullshit and sexcessiveness (yes that's what I'm calling it)... anyway, looking forward to more Amelia Earhart and aliens.
I ADORED the 1950s bit; the black and white was working wonders, it felt claustrophobic and unsettling, the performances felt like real Drama television (McDonough was perfect). And then Murphy had to sabotage his own show with his recent obsessions of young annoying people speaking so overtly about their sex life at a fancy restaurant being as pretentious as ever. WHY? I feel as though Lange was the glue holding this show together and without her, the writers have this weird. obsessive tendency to pander to Scream Queens fans/stans, but do it with way more cringe-inducing moments. The potential packed in those first 15 minutes or so is what this show should be all about and it’s utterly disappointing that it’s not.
Too bad for the video saying Faro, Portugal when thats Ponta Delgada in the Azores... And also many of the portuguese speakers besides the first scene seemed like spanish...
