Review of The Resort

The Resort (2022– )
10/10
So far really good, giving it a 10 to compensate for people who don't have the patience to get to the good stuff ;)

Does it start off slow? Sure. It's called a slow burn ;)

Is it a bit artsy & more creative that the typical fare you would expect from peacock? Yes.

Does it have a compelling mystery, engaging (underrated) actors with complex backstories not often seen in the media? Absolutely.

Most of the audience will miss the nuances revealed in the first half of the episode and may not understand the couple's behavior - but as 2 people who have recently experienced tragedy similar to what is likely yet to be explained in the show, my husband and I found that there is a lot that is instantly recognizable. I don't want to spoil anything but their patterns of behavior, her deep need for meaning, his constant exhaustion are all spot on and almost too real. There is a lot of depth here and I cannot wait to see where this goes.

Hoping that this gets the attention it deserves and many more seasons.

P. S. To the guy who left a review about "an annoying narration" - there is no narration to the show - you will enjoy the show much more if you check your settings again :)
