I was really excited for this show! I thought it was going to be the best show this summer, it'd be really good a nice mystery... and I wasn't that disappointed... but its not all I thought it would be and I'll get to that more or less...
I thought the story was really good, and I thought the pilot was very strong. We're still in the dark about a lot of the things in the show and we found out what happened in a mysterious-but-believable way... so that was good. And you can tell the show is going places. The characters are interesting and theres a lot they could do with the show. Hopefully they kinda "go there" and make it a little more suspenseful and not as predictable because that's kind of how it goes sometimes.
It reminds me a little bit of the show Harper's Island, which was also on CBS and that had a lot of twists! I never actually watched the finale of that show, but the rest of it was pretty good! And the ending was a little disappointing but it wasn't predictable. Idk I liked that they made the one girls boyfriend a bad guy, that was unexpected... but I do think its a little bit of a cop out that the villain was the same as the original villain and he had never died...
Anyway... I don't think that'll happen with this show because we know the killer is someone in the family, but we don't know much else. Or at least someone in the family is involved somehow. So that's kind of cool.
There are some things I didn't like... 1) The Writing. It was a little off. And it might just be me being picky... but some things were over explained... There was a scene with the dad in the hospital that was just really bad. There were a lot of cheesy moments... and it wasn't terrible... everything happened the way it was supposed to happen... but some of the dialogue wasn't quite there. It wasn't horrible though, so that's all good. 2) The wardrobe... it was weird? Right? Am I the only one that notices this stuff? That yellow shirt at the end that just didn't really fit... it was odd. There were some odd wardrobe choices. It was a good show all in all... but there was some weird stuff that made it not a total home run.
But I still think its a fun mystery, I still like the characters and I'm excited to see more of it. Its creepy, its mysterious, its fun... and I think if you like scary shows, chances are you'll like it! Some of the stuff was like "really?" but overall I don't think it was badly written or anything but some of it could have been worded better or cut out or something... so there's that!
Byeee!
