Season 1, Episode 8
6/10
Bad writing: the least good episode of S01
1 September 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The whole series is really good: a different approach, darker themes, great characters with compelling back stories... The season finale is... Well... Just barely "good". The story became predictable and they try to tight all the loose ends in the last two episodes, so the pace feel rushed. But the real problem is the script. Previous episodes are examples of good storytelling, and some of the dialogues are memorable. But I didn't find the same quality on this one. It seemed to me as if they were in a hurry, writing some cliche lines here and there, in order to get to the scripted finale. Some of the dialogues are so bad, that the characters appeared to be monologuing alongside each other. And some big reveals we were waiting for turned out completely anti climatic. Hope season 2 rise the writing level because of not the series will go down fast as happened with Heroes some years ago.
