    I will update this IF I decide to finish the show and judge it independently as a show.
    So my biggest problem is that it is SO different from the book right off the rip that I absolutely cannot bare to watch. This is my 2nd attempt and I just honestly don’t think I can do it. Vic isn’t even anything like she’s supposed to be. I feel like the ball was dropped hard here. I’ll do my best to

I’ll do my best to give it a more fair shot independently as a series, but as far as book adaptations go this is the worst I’ve seen.

    Joe Hill's expansive horror novel might have made a better movies than a sluggish series stalled in the angst of small-town Massachusetts life. [10 - 23 Jun 2019, p.9]

    NOS4A2 will put you on a magical road, brimming with possibilities for terror and wonder, but takes so many detours into dull territory, you’re left with the impression you’re going nowhere at all. But if it ever figures out where it’s going, there’s plenty of gas left in the tank.

    Through its first six episodes, NOS4A2 is a shockingly unscary horror drama prone to ill-considered detours and over-explained supernatural machinations, while wallowing in entirely too many blue-collar cliches and variable Massachusetts accents. A solid cast, some showy makeup and the occasional inspired bit of imagery all get the life sucked right out of them, the only way that the show's clunky pun of a title is at all worthwhile.
