also this show is a real snoozer

moving forward, i will be the judge of what is important

I've found every episode fascinating in its own way. The murder mystery is a distant second (or third) to its examination of trauma and the way it's been giving us morsels of Camille's story. I couldn't care less who the killer is at this point. I just want to know more about that fucked-up family.

Yes I do. I'm the supervising sound editor

The final moment of the second episode completely undercuts the

Spoiler: show

final moment of the first moment. Ep1 ends with us seeing all those carvings on her skin. All healed over. It leaves us with the question, what happened in the past? Ep2 ends with her cutting herself. So, it's not the past, it's just another element of the current fucked up-ness we have seen in her already. It becomes uninteresting and unnecessary. All it does is shove the idea that she is fucked up in our faces.

This show suffers from being too similar to True Detective season one, a masterpiece. It invites comparisons, and it is never easy to be compared to a masterpiece. The new movie You Were Never relly Here has the same issue with Taxi Driver. It may be good on its own, but it goes beyond paying homage and comparisons to one of the greatest films of all time become unavoidable and so it loses something. Idk

what you mean "you people"???

omg that coffee shop scene was some of the worst amateur hour bs i've ever seen on HBO. Loud restaurant walla (chatter) when literally NOBODY in the background was having a conversation. The lead guy's dialogue and mumbling were brutal, and his awful performance brought this poorly produced scene even lower.

There's some great stuff in this show; i especially liked the shot of the sister roller skating on her deck. But when it's bad it is really awful.
