I’ve seen a lot of stupid **** on Netflix, but at this point they must be wiping their asses with the idea of making money. I watched this because a reviewer I enjoy gave it high praise. Man, I don’t know what he was smoking but this isI’ve seen a lot of stupid **** on Netflix, but at this point they must be wiping their asses with the idea of making money. I watched this because a reviewer I enjoy gave it high praise. Man, I don’t know what he was smoking but this is some of the most valid, boring crap I’ve ever seen. Pacing issues, lighting issues, it appears someone shot half this on their cell phone while high. The “humor” is unfunny, the effects cheesy, and the plot nonexistent. Save your brain and go watch The Boys if you want dark comedy.… Expand

I never imagined a show with so much weirdness could ever manage to also be relentlessly boring, but brand new cherry flavor manages to pull it off. Awful, tedious pacing. Every scene is drawn out and uneventful. The character's motives areI never imagined a show with so much weirdness could ever manage to also be relentlessly boring, but brand new cherry flavor manages to pull it off. Awful, tedious pacing. Every scene is drawn out and uneventful. The character's motives are shallow, unbelievable, and uninteresting.

The main character's original motive for revenge, not getting to direct her movie, is the trauma of somehow who has never known anything but privilege. To everyone else, it's just everyday disappointment.… Expand

If David Cronenburg and Ryan Murphy had a baby, and that baby took acid, it would be Brand New Cherry Flavor.

A visceral (and often disgusting) surreal horror noir. The 90's are the backdrop. The characters believable oddities. It's well produced with what I guess is a statement on Hollywood (It's ugly and horrible) The lead character is a selfA visceral (and often disgusting) surreal horror noir. The 90's are the backdrop. The characters believable oddities. It's well produced with what I guess is a statement on Hollywood (It's ugly and horrible) The lead character is a self centred narcissist, the least likeable of all the players. You'll have to watch to see if karma visits her.… Expand

This show is ballsy
I mean the story is kinda thin, but the concept, the visuals, tone and atmosphere are pretty good.
I love the fact that it's not afraid of being grotesque. I wasn't convinced by its final stretch, nor its conclusion, butThis show is ballsy

I wasn't convinced by its final stretch, nor its conclusion, but in general it was an entertaining show as well as bizarre.

Not for everyone though.… Expand

SPOILER FREE!

The most original show I've seen in a long, long while. The acting was superb [Salazar, Keener, and Lange all knocked it out of the park]. The story was very captivating - those complaining about needing more "answers" or theSPOILER FREE!

The most original show I've seen in a long, long while. The acting was superb [Salazar, Keener, and Lange all knocked it out of the park]. The story was very captivating - those complaining about needing more "answers" or the ending remaining "unresolved" need better imaginations, imo. Despite my live for the show, I do have a few gripes - some of the acting direction for the second half [if I'm being honest, it's a single actor] was very poor. I get what they were going for with the character, but idk if it was the actor or the direction, I just didn't feel it.… Expand

Brand New Cherry Flavor is a delightful surprise. It's compelling, dark, and funny. Don't miss out.

It's compelling, dark, and funny. Don't miss out. There's a lot of comparisons to Lynch and Cronenberg, which is understandable but this is its own witchy beast that builds on what came before it rather than copies. Role of a lifetime for Catherine Keener and Rose Salazar is a powerhouse. WATCH IT NOW… Expand

I posted above and my rating was incorrect. Trying to fix it here. So tedious. I loved this surreal, black horror comedy.

Fun fun fun. Creepy, sexy, cool, amusing. A Jägerbomb of a TV series. I had a blast. Kudos to all involved in creating it.
