Disagree. Sure, they have some innovative content and premises that I haven’t seen before their execution is poor and there is a LOT of perfumed dogshit. I watched Hijack today and it made me sad and then mad. Had so much potential but it had bad pacing, lazy writing and was missing basic elements of storytelling.
Several shows are amazing like Ted Lasso, Severance and Lessons in Chemistry which are well written. But majority are mildly interesting like Invasion, Hijack, Foundation etc. and you think it will be good but they go nowhere and have such terrible pacing in the first 10 mins that you want them to just get to the point. It doesn’t hook me in or make me care about the characters. A lot of the time, the situations feel contrived and there is no grounding and emotional core to the story.
It’s like Apple doesn’t have good writers or directors or something since basic story is missing but it does have Oscar worthy cinematographers and awesome production design and also money to pay good talent like Idris where you think it will be awesome but it is wasted potential - basically gorgeous looking dogshit. Sigh. What a tease.
