Wayward Guide

I only made it five minutes into episode one. I was completely bored. Seems like try hard quirkiness and awful dialogue.

This year I've really had a hard time finding good series to watch, but then I heard about wayward guide and went to watch it, expected something good and got something incredible. The cast, the acting, the story, the shots and the podcast are just amazing, the work that the Tin Can Bros put on Wayward Guide is admirable. Mary Kate and Steve make a great duo, and MK's got a great voice for podcasts. You can enjoy the episodes and the podcast by their own, but together is better. Each episode leaves you wanting more, and it's got murder, mystery, and werewolves!

I don't have words to describe how great this series are. It has a consistent story, but the mysteries left answered keep you wanting more and more. The acting is stunning as well. If you plan on watching it, I really recommend listening to the podcast as well. It adds so much more and each episode (and Mary Kate's voice is perfect for podcasts). Also, it has werewolves, everything with werewolves is cool

Whenever I remembered that Tuesday was a Wayward Guide day, I immediately got excited and couldn't wait to watch the days episode. From the very beginning I was hooked on the story, and after every episode I was on the edge of my seat, already antsy for the next weeks episode.

It was so interesting to theorize and then watch the actual events unfold. More than once I gasped audibly at my screen. There were plot twists galore!

Artemis and Paul were such a charming and funny duo, from their Twin-Tuition to how snarky they were in the podcast (completely worth listening to, as well). Not to mention, Diane as the Mayor was probably the best casting decision of the 21st century.

This series has been one of the highlights of this quarantine so far. The Tin Can Brothers never fail!

I truly enjoyed Wayward Guide. It had the perfect overall balance of quirky and mystery with the perfect amount of gore where it's not overly-gory, but gory enough that it adds a layer of depth to the plot.

The casting was very well done in my opinion. The cast includes actors you may have seen in other shows, such as Darren Criss and Sean Astin. On top of that, the cast is topped off with comedians suck as Mary Kate Wiles and theater actors such as Cassie Silva and other theater, specifically Starkid, actors such as Lauren Lopez, Joey Ritcher, Dylan Saunders, Corey Dorris, Nick Lang, among so many others.

I do admit, some of the acting and dialogue was a bit too much for me. I am big in the theater scene and enjoy the whimsy and extra-ness that comes with theater acting, but some of that extra-ness didn't translate as well to the screen as it does on the stage. With short episodes, there is not a lot of room to fit deep plots, and that caused some episodes and scenes to feel rushed. It felt they were trying too hard to come off as quirky.

However, the show is very engaging. Each episode ends on a cliffhanger, which keeps you engaged and wondering what comes next. It is my favorite show, and is definitely a must watch!
