Review of The Bite

The Bite (2021)
1/10
This is bad, like real bad.
1 September 2021
Finished the first episode, couldn't not believe that such known actors were capable of delivering such bad acting. Five minutes in the second episode, and my despair is confirmed. Bad story, bad writing, bad acting and even worse than that.

Okay, I get it, during Covid-19, it was almost impossible to record good tv shows. But that does not mean they should give up trying. Clearly this series has been thrown together very quickly and nobody knew what they were actually doing. Maybe on paper the storyline was funny, but the result is very, very bad.

A few examples, without telling any spoilers. A doctor who is working for months on her computer, doing Zoom consultations. Clearly she is able to work with multiple screens, multiple computers. But when things get heated, she forgets how the unmute button works. Really? Do the producers think we are that stupid? Another example, the dominatrix sees a guy growling and attacking her like an animal, but still thinks the guy is having a bad reaction to bath salts. Come on guys, how dare you to think we, the viewers, would be so stupid to believe this?

I get the comparison with Brain Dead and Santa Clarita Diet. Which were very good shows and cancelled too early. But this one? It should've never been produced.
