So, I did not watch Marcella. Let that be known.
This show started off well with all the necessary elements that kept me intrigued. The show takes its time, exploring seemingly irrelevant sub-plots, all which give you the impression that they will have meaning. Everything was set to go well by episode 8, but then it absolutely derails. My frustration with the pace of the show is at its height, but I'm preparing myself for a big payoff. But the payoff never comes. Instead we're forced to watch Rebecca officially lose her mind, and act in ways we don't get the chance to reconcile. Meanwhile, key elements of the plot are left unresolved. We're left to wonder:
-are the police ever going to find out who moved Letitia's body?
-who was blackmailing Julien?
-what about matthieu lorrain? Is he still wasting away in that basement?
-why was there a scuff on Rebecca's car?
-do the police see through julien's lies?
-when did marco become some black market, deep web, cop for hire?
-how did she rebecca her own death?
-why did raf deserve to get beat over the head?
Hello? These are major plot points? Can anyone help? Anyone??
1/10.
