Dead Still (2020)
Didn't Die of Boredom
The era's macabre photographs have always been interesting to me, so of course I was right on board with watching this show. It had is fun moment, and I was never bored. That's a complement, btw. It's easy to bore me.
When you create a character that evokes some sort of emotion on the character (and not the actor) you've done a good job. Even better if the audience wants more of your character.
That being said, the female lead I could have done a LOT without. She's idotic - not just naive - and at times seems a historical parody of Harley Quinn. You almost think she's intelligent until she does something utterly stupid. Is she supposed to be a brave Victorian woman, an echo of Lola Montez maybe? How insulting to Lola if so.
Please end her existence in this show. LOL.
October Faction (2020)
So very disappointed
Points to sum up my feelings.
1. Someone please find those scriptwriters and send them back to college for their literature majors. I think the most frustrating part of this show was the ending, where we were led to believe Fred was maybe going to go back but then.. he just didn't. Ooh, amazing, something pounding the basement floor to get out. Could it be Fred? The sloppy writing left me not caring an iota.
2. No seriously, please find them and send them back to ... high school even. The second most frustrating part was not watching the townsfolk actually get OUT of the mess they were in. It was like something waved a fairy wand and it was magically all reset. Bling! New reality! Enjoy!
3. I am asking you a third time to send those horrible writers back to Jr. High even, if it will ONLY teach them how to write realistically... and keep track of a linear thread. I swear they've been working on other projects. There are catch phrases you hear that an author uses frequently. The one I'm coming to hate the most is, "I promise you..." which is the same as "I swear to you..."
Here let me help a little. Sit down. Come here. Right there, make yourself comfy on my couch next to me. Are you good? Okay, great. Listen now.
PEOPLE DON'T TALK THAT WAY NORMALLY!!!
UGH! I've been hearing that pansy weak-willed device so much lately it completely makes me lose my suspense of belief.
So to sum up my feelings about this show.... there's this cool part at the ending where the werewolf asks the sheriff if he can have some raw meat to put in his coffee. She says,"F** you!" with a laugh.
It started out so good. But. Won't be coming back for season 2.
