This was obviously generated by an AI


Run of the mill supernatural BS with some cliffhangers and other triggers.
I watched it and I chose not to watch generalized dreck like this again.

That AI knew how to keep me watching to the end though...ugh. Literally zero payoff. Just a bunch of stupid tropes. I think it was Waltz who kept me coming back.

Spoilers, observations, and questions:

- Sorry showrunners - Waltz is not some hot old guy that's pure perfection. He just looks like an old man with bad teeth now.
- What was with the outhouse?
- So - I guess his skeleton was made of gold? What the hell was that supposed to signify? Was that a gold toe in the end?
- He's so heavy he can't walk up stairs yet he can glide about effortlessly walking.
- I guess server-LED's turn red when gold or bad people walk by?
- So the records room....HUH? Why? No company has that.
- Did the break-in happen or not at the jewelry store? No one addresses the story.
- Why did the robbers sound like farm animals?
- Was he the devil? If so, what clues did we have besides an old Elvis tune?
- Why no shoes? Still don't get the point of that.
- So Patoff can just hypnotize people like Patti? Wouldn't that be easier than trying to manipulate an entire company?

All those questions (and more) can be answered in season X!

I agree with all your observations. a good story answers its questions.

So, is it not worth watching?

reply

Depends, is time worth wasting?

reply

I have a big backlog of things to watch (I still haven't started the Chloe Grace Moretz sci fi series) . So, no. I can't waste 10 hours on something that doesn't pay off

not a waste to watch it, but you aren't missing anything if you don't.

That's how I feel. I give it a 6/10.
