Apple TV+'s latest sci-fi thriller falls unfortunately flat, stretching a thin story over too many bloated episodes.
The worst thing a TV show can be these days is boring. In a landscape that is somehow simultaneously bloated and hollow, boring television is the ultimate insult to even a casual watcher. The merit of good TV does not need to be defended, but even bad TV can make us feel something. Disgust and rage are better reactions to something than indifference or apathy.
Of the four episodes I watched for this review, the first three were directed by Jakob Verbruggen. Consistency can be a blessing or a curse, and in this case, it’s the latter. Media that spans across multiple realities has to establish a lot of little things at the front of the story so that the audience can point at their screens and say “Hey, that sign was a different color when we saw this place last.
Generally, I am an advocate for books being adapted into TV shows instead of movies, but most of the books I feel that way about are expansive, lore-heavy epics thatis short compared to those, and while a movie adaptation always means cutting some of the muscle away with the fat, it is a better alternative to a nine-episode series that drags for the first third of what it has to offer.
