Being an anthology, you hope that there will be an occasional standout episode, but for me, that hope is fading fast. This show accomplishes the difficult task of actually making the paranormal boring.
It's the same old creaky formula. Overdramatized re-creations of an allegedly paranormal event, re-described in excruciating detail by self-proclaimed "experts", who either come off as completely delusional or just being there for a paycheck. There's the same old boring "dramatic" music, complete silence to let you know you're about to get a jump scare. And acting so bad that it will make you cry with laughter. So yeah, that's one reason to watch this, it's because it is so hilariously bad.
In fact, the haunted doll episode features literally the worst acting I have seen in half a century. Casting could've picked random people off the street, and they would (not could) have done a better job.
We really need to start demanding more of our throwaway, garbage TV. Because this guy doesn't just scrape the bottom of the barrel, it blasts clean through it.
