    Whatever you think about the season, this sort of ‘Worst Thing Ever!’ is blatant clickbait for groups on social media that are working themselves into a froth about nothing. The author is just scouring Reddit and YouTube, and throwing their shitty takes back at them for easy likes.

      This kind of hyperbolic negativity for movies, shows, and games is rampant on YouTube, and it’s so exhausting until you say “don’t ever recommend this to me again” for the laundry list of popular channels that do it.

    I watched some of the first episode but I’m waiting until it’s done so I can binge it. Lol

    It’s unlikely to have a satisfactory ending, but enjoying the ride.

    So far it’s better than season 2 of True Detective, so I’m not complaining.

    I don’t understand the writing. The main two characters are garbage people and there’s no character exploration to explain it. And if the answer to the mystery isn’t supernatural, there’s two explanations that have been telegraphed from miles away. But yeah, its not the worst thing ever made.

      Well yeah if you ignore the acting and only parse the dialogue in a vacuum.
