First of all, you have to accept the fact that there is nothing, nothing at all, in Cursed that has anything to do with Arthurian legend. The writers grabbed familiar names and assigned them, seemingly at random, to characters totally unrelated to the originals (hint: Gawain battles the Green Knight; he definitely isn't himself the Green Knight). Initially I gave the writers a pass because it was so blatant it was clear they wanted to create an entirely different story. So, do that, go wild, be creative. But it's painfully bad writing that makes no sense in its internal logic. And the acting? Floki gave his mascara to a different character (one that's actually pretty original) and simply added excessive drinking to his Vikings character. At times, it feels like a high school drama club could have handled the scenes and dialog (admittedly lame) better than these professionals. I question my judgment entirely because I actually finished all ten episodes. I'm not getting those hours back.
