It could've been great, but instead of aiming for higher quality they went with adding all the woke stuff. Shame.

Think Goosebumps for intellectually-numbed adults. The transition from blossoming supernatural/psychological thriller hybrid to confused satire is painfully tangible, and the only reason I continued watching after Rose390 was to see how it ended so that I could be through with the show and the investment I'd already made up to that point. The writers are complete boomers, and it shows in the cringeworthy, minimal-effort way modern technology and the Internet are painted. The dialogue is implicitly misogynistic and racist at nearly every turn, if not just plain prejudiced. The writing only gets worse and worse, and what used to be a fairly believable, immersive world quickly dissolves with lazy, silly interactions, random awful actors popping in, and soapbox-tier twists. There are some genuinely tense and gripping moments, but these are outweighed and washed away by the number of times I wanted to go back and smack the pencil out of the writer's hand out of frustration. The end of the first season makes absolutely no sense and leaves so many more details unexplained and outright contradicted. I don't even know who the intended audience is, because that seems to shift with every episode. I am deeply disappointed, and I know the Kings could've done better, because there are some stellar moments and performances in here. I can only recommend watching this show if you go in thinking of it as a parody or college production.… Expand
