The Dry

Set up to be a semi interesting tale (if not particularly original), with a reasonably interesting family dynamic.

But loses its way almost instantly. Horrible brother. Horrible ex. Idiot sister. Idiot lead. Thick mum. Selfish dad.

No pleasing or empathetic characters to root for. No one. Not one.

Oh yeah no laughs either. None. Someone put a lot into the structure but needed to rewrite this with a bit more acid. It's just weak.

Then it goes all mawkish at the end of S1 like who cares about Carl, if he's anything like the rest of the family then he was probably a selfish wastrel like the rest of them.

Don't waste 3hrs. Go watch a classic movie or two.
