Parish

If they wanted a text title about the Parish; Two words would be enough. 'Bad Director' You have a very good leading actor who is a world star >>>>Giancarlo Espasito.

There is a very good script with a 5-season guarantee.

But all of this was entrusted to a bad director who could not visually prepare and present it to the audience.

Is a bear running after the director? What's your rush? Is there a new art you want to give us with disconnected visuals?

David Benioff, D. B. Weiss, Alexander Woo.

You have to work harder to do a better job.

And that bad music? What is your problem? Half the battle is good music. You should find better music.

Awesome Production value and engaging scenes its got that NOBODY and EQUALiZER ambiant feel look. Smooth script theatrical score with grest cinematog ... The obb reminds or ringfs me that criminal minds early days . Every episode is dramatic the establishment of seqence is legitimately so natural and its like you are party of every angle of the story. POV is brought to new charaters and pivoting back to PARiSH .

Director did a great job telling the story ... a slow organic one that can grow overtime with so much potential. A Serious show for serious veiwers only.

A lot of spinoffs can come out of this. For now enjoying this one and looking forward to every episode. Keep up the good tracks Scenes and cliffhanging scenes.

I keep at this week to week, mostly for Giancarlo Esposito. The series is brooding with enough mystery in the beginning so I'm game, and I tell myself it's only six episodes, so no fuss if it goes downhill. And downhill it goes fast. Esposito's legendary influence as Gus Fring from "Breaking Bad" cannot save the day, unfortunately. Here he is reduced to a disjointed man of emotions who turns up all over the place with no coherent continuity. The music in this show also becomes obnoxious at times. Then we get subject to these slow motion scenes that do nothing but embarrass the show. Worst of all, in the very last episode, suddenly a bunch of new faces are introduced for the mere purpose of closing the story. It is very lazy and an insult to the viewer who has stuck by for six weeks. Yikes.

A soporific "limited" series where you just "woke up" from cars' engine roars, chases, gun shot bangs and wounds. Besides the good acting and semi-thrilling atmosphere it has nothing to offer, the worst and the most detrimental to the show was his family and any children in it. They sucked up any thrill, drama and crime soap-opera that you got involved with in its 6 tiny episodes.

Giancarlo Esposito performed at his usual peak with gray hairs and minuscule screenplay plots this time, but overall the series is a waste with too little episodes.

I am really trying to like this show, it's just trite and cliche so far. AMC and Giancarlo Esposito should be an instant hit with originality but this is not the case. Another mob related program but taking place in New Orleans. The location is different but the story is not. Nothing new or dynamic here. I'd recommend a pass as I doubt it's renewed for a season 2. Perhaps the writing could improve but it might be too late. Rewatch Boardwalk Empire or the sopranos. I'm three episodes in and am finding it difficult to not be bored. Maybe the season finale can turn things around but I won't hold my breath.
