Got the sense they were going for a Twin peaks vibe. Didn't know he passed. I was watching an Invisible man 20th virtual reunion with the cast i found on youtube the other day and they mentioned attending his funeral. Always loved seeing him pop up in things. A great character actor. Given the last 2 dismal attempts at kickstarting the Dark universe i have really low expectations for this but maybe they've learned from their mistakes. Just started watching this. Episode 1 was mildly ok. It was a fairly generic monster story and the ending was really predictable. I liked episode 2 much better. Maybe i just found it more suspenseful because i'm a bit claustrophobic but i enjoyed it. I liked episode 3 too. But episode 4 was so far the worst. Haven't gotten to the rest yet. Shes not just a survivor shes the original survivor from the beginning. It's perfectly plausible that a purist copycat obsessed with the killings would target her as such. That's not that far fetched. Besides I'd rather see her than any of the generic forgettable crap characters that the legacy characters have been replaced with. More interested in seeing it now. 5 and 6 were shit. 6 was just stupid. Chad being wheeled to the ambulance at the end waving was laughably ridiculous given how many times he was stabbed in the chest. Woke or not it was a shit send off for the franchise. Michael's barely in it and when he is he's either being man handled by a scrawny punk or having his ass handed to him by a grandmother in her 60s or 70s. Not just Troy and Alicia but Charlie too was miraculously rescued from impending death just to die again. Hell even Daniels cat managed to survive somehow avoiding the zombies all this time. This was all pure fan service for the writers so they could conveniently tie up all loose ends and give all the characters closure. Race, gender and sexuality changes to characters bother me in general because it's never done for the sake of quality or improving the product in any way. It has nothing to do with entertainment or fans. Honestly these days i think studios are so drunk on the woke agendas kool-aid that they don't give a shit what fans want. It's just somebodies selfish pretentious need to shoehorn their identity politics into the mix. I can look past it on those rare occasions when it works like here or Denzel Washington as the Equalizer. Take it from someone who's at the end of season 8. Quit. It doesn't get better. The writing gets dumber and the ridiculousness gets even more ridiculous as it goes on. View all replies >
