Maybe they're just being smart and pacing themselves, but it feels odd that a show with so much potential is floundering already before the end of the first season.
The murder mystery has been sidelined for way over dramatic side stories that I can't even pretend to be invested in.
The delivery was self aware, well acting, engaging. All the sudden I'm sitting here in episode 8 counting the seconds until it's over.
Everyone has suddenly become over the top soap opera canned actors.
Maybe that episode just had a bad director who was pushing for that. But yikes.
I came to this show as recommended because I enjoyed "Outer Banks", which also had its fair share of filler content that made me want to check out at times, But I was super digging the first few episodes of this.
Hell yeah, it's "Twin Peaks" but done well, using the characters from the Archie comics. Brilliant.
The vibe was moody, mysterious, classic high-school in the misty trees murder mystery with enjoyable characters.
Now everyone overreacts to EVERYthing. Emotionally unhinged and cringy reactions.
Please give us one character to enjoy if everyone else is going to be unrelatably emotional about spilt milk.
Otherwise I might not make it to the end of this season, let alone the rest of this season.
Ugh.
I really want to like this show. Vancouver is such a beautiful place to film and they don't make enough shows there anymore.
The premise is everything I want out of television.
The execution is starting to suck.
Also it's comical how bad the parents are in this show. Except the two single dads. One of which is a biker drug dealer who for a yet to be disclosed reason has is son living homeless while he himself lives in a house. Yet he's still better than most the other parents.
Like every parent we meet is the worst human being ever. The writer has mommy issues I guess.
