Outer Banks (2020– )
5/10
Great for the first 5-6 episodes and quickly fell off.

When I started this show I was expecting a typical show with teenage angst and stupid decisions. It had many tropes and stereotypes but it had a dark vibe to it with a lot of adult themes and it wasn't so potent and in your face. There was a form of mystery to the show with a very small dab of intellectualism and history.

I'm guess this was all a ploy though as after you understand the beginning cog of the story they drop it almost immediately to just up the ante for over-the-top drama and stupid decisions. So many things going wrong back to back, I couldn't even breathe and I felt that I was watching 5 episodes crunched into one. There is really nothing more to what I need to say. If you're okay with the smallest amount of character development and nonstop drama just to have something to scratch your gossip itch, this might be for you. I gave it an attempt and I can see it for some people but not for me.
