The Outsider: Must/Can't (2020)
Season 1, Episode 10
7/10
Long-winded Series, anticlimactic finale
9 March 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This series should've been 6-8 episodes for sure. Tons of filler. There were great moments and I liked the idea of the entity, but the finale kind of ruined the mystique and horror of it. Not only did we not learn any further information about El Cuco, the finale established that he really wasn't anything to be that concerned about, as he was killed easily about 30 minutes in.

The remainder of the episode following El Cuco's death was uninteresting. We've been force fed the fact that Ralph was slow to believe and Holly was quick to believe, so the final scenes between the two rehashing this fact were just overkill.

The show really does not need a second season. The story has been told. If this wasn't a very hyped up HBO production, it would be rated where it needs to be on IMDb, about 7.5-7.7.
