Graeme Blundell

The Australian

It’s a delicious set up and a wonderful tale, superbly told, of unfolding mystery involving bored suburbanites whose search for excitement leads them down risky paths.

A strange, surreal, surpassingly dark addition to Bateman’s œuvre. He’s cast well in the show -- I can’t imagine it working without his presence, reeking of ennui and buried impulses.

Mr. Bateman is always a supremely watchable actor, but if there’s a standout in this exceptional cast it’s Mr. Harbour, who has sort of gone “Raging Bull” for his role as Floyd.

...the series mostly takes place in the suburbs of St. Louis. This reinforces this idea that the suburbs aren't necessarily this safe and wholesome place where nothing bad, or weird, or even sexually adventurous happens.

...as fiction, it rises above the rest, conceived as a simple yet highly effective device. [Full review in Spanish]

B+

The show pokes at an uncomfortable cultural reality: the way our society often frames male libido as something urgent, unavoidable, biological in its authority. Men must pursue. Men must conquer. Men must be sexually validated at all times.

Absolutely sick to death of queer baiting shows, and knowingly using queer themes to bring in an audience for a sh*t ending anyway. Yes I see the mid life crisis vibes about it all and the weird sexual moments but it truly just pissed me off to no end. Yes there were funny moments, heart felt moments. But honestly after the fourth episode, I had it on in the background while I went on my phone to answer my emails. Don’t waste your time. These actors have much better shows and movies you can watch.

A beautiful balance of genres: as threatening and tense as it is sincere. The characters and motives may at times feel hyperbolic, even pretentious, but it overall compliments with the oblique realism of the plot. I thoroughly enjoyed the series - and while I don’t think I would rewatch it - this is far from a criticism. It is intense, sad, touching, and real in a way that can be uncomfortable. The acting was also exceptional, especially from Jason Bateman. Highly recommended.

One of the worst shows I’ve ever seen. Characters behave as the plot dictates at any given moment, even if it contradicts everything the show previously setup about them. If this show was meant to be a comedy, it ends up being a tragedy of contemporary impoverished narrative skills. At 7 episodes, it is too long and overstretches thin, implausible material.

A waste of seven hours of my life!

Hard to get into a show with so many unlikable characters.
