Bear Down

Episode 4: A much more satisfying episode with the usual dragging, but with far better acting. Of course, the arc(s), especially present time events, are not super interesting and that already showed in the pilot and continued after that.

It doesn't have a purpose in sight, four episodes in, but it's fairly enjoyable. As I said before in my reviews of the episodes, mixing past and present in three different timelines is a bit too much and makes a muddy recipe as the results.

Some of acting is atrocious. Courtney Eaton's Australian accent is so obvious. When she wakes at 3 minutes into the episode she says "bad things happened here" in a super Aussie accent. Not to mention she's 26 in real life yet playing a 16 year old - same with most of the cast. Just NO.

Sophie Thatchers voice, its uncanny how similar it is to Juliet Lewis'. Was great to get some backstory on Natalie.

Again, a middling episode, character and world building. Reminiscent of something like a team building exercise. It was honestly a bit corny, but whatever, not a bad episode. Shauna is really, really into roll play now, thanks Jeff. Misty is a citizen detective and she has your back. Liked seeing Tiassa stand up for herself.

I like the premise. I really like some the characters, but I feel like the content/story isn't enough for 10 episodes. It feels like it's being stretched to serve the time. Perhaps a 6 or 7 episode series would have been better.

This shows first two episodes left me extremely satisfied and begging for more. These last two episodes have me feeling the exact opposite. While the flashback crash site scenes are still holding steady and interesting enough, the current time scenes are completely burning out. There are extreme pace issues and the plot has already thinned out quite a bit.
