Which is all to say that, three episodes in, Welcome To Derry remains a well-acted, interestingly plotted drama for adults that only grudgingly seems to share time with a much-less accomplished children’s horror show. Go to Full Review

Now You See It presents multiple chances for the dancing clown to pop up, only to pull back. Even as the show’s disparate story lines begin to cohere, it’s hard not to feel frustrated by this increasingly tedious restraint. Go to Full Review

This is the episode that fans of the source material and Stephen King's work in general have been waiting for. We've been anticipating some hints to the origins of Pennywise and this episode does a great job delivering just that. Go to Full Review

Dick Hallorann’s introduction to Pennywise and some interesting backstory for General Shaw aside, both the horror and drama are lacking in IT: Welcome to Derry’s largely inert third episode. Go to Full Review

This episode of It: Welcome to Derry is a satisfying watch thanks to Leroy and Hallorann’s operation and Shaw’s hesitancy, but makes the Losers Club’s situation too narratively-focused. Go to Full Review
