Review by KTnarnia

Benedict did a phenomenal job acting. Honestly, all the acting was great (even the kid). But there were entire unnecessary scenes that caused the show to feel like it was dragging. The timing was inconsistent, and the direction was weak. I kept thinking, "David Lynch would've done a better job with this." It was watchable, but only in the sense that I could be up doing things around the house or working on other things. It wasn't riveting enough to focus on. There were redeemable elements, like the fact that it represented the 80s more accurately than Stranger Things. Everything really was brown. I would not ever watch this or anything like it again. I'm not sure this was worth being a series, though. Maybe a movie, with all the boring parts cut out. But definitely not a series.
