Review of La Brea

La Brea (2021–2024)
2/10
Lost all over again
9 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Something happened at the end of Lost Season 1, the writers got together to try and work out where to go from here, and ever since, hollywood has been churning out these shows that were written for a single season because of the way the big companies finance shows.

This means that season 2 of these shows is usually spectacularly bad and that is exactly what we get here. The writer's push a cliffhanger at the end of season one, hoping it gets picked up for another season, at which point writers have to try and invent a new plot to explain where they left off, and like Lost, everything just gets more and more unbelievable and more and more convoluted the further it gets in.

So the writing is really bad, the FX and animals are done on the cheap, and for a show that is supposed to take place in 10,000 BC it misses a thousand possible storylines just so it can push along its banal plots.

Cheap and nonsensical. The world deserves better.
