While it may be too theatrical for some tastes, The Decameron gets wittier and darker as it goes along, with death (corpses in carts, suppurating neck boils) never far away.

The weirdness is welcome, the concept has merit, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired.

Netflix’s Decameron stays with 10 core characters—give or take a few peasants and mercenaries—throughout its eight-episode run. This ends up becoming a liability, as the series assumes that if we spend enough time with these rotten people, we’ll grow to love them. The assumption is incorrect. .... Some redemption arcs are more unearned than others, but only Mamet’s Pampinea has the guts to remain reprehensible until the end. Mamet and Hale also stand out for their ability to embody ridiculous characters without turning them into cartoons.
