The Sinner (2017–2021)
5/10
Pop some corn. Settle in for ... well, for what exactly?

Once you start, it's hard to stop. I'll give it that. But while you're binging, you gotta admire Bill Pullman. Good looking guy! And an actor's actor. He can face straight ahead while watching something out of the right corner of his eyes. Pretty remarkable. But it doesn't stop. He can do the same thing on the other side! I know, right? But here's the kicker. He's got the range to face ahead, look at something out of the right corner of his eye, and then without turning his head, shift to stare pensively out of the left corner! Meanwhile, because of his artistic chops, nothing else changes in his expression. OMG. Emmy, please.

And it doesn't end there. Jessica B proves that a skilled actor can be less lively as a real character than the animated one she played in Bojack!

So why did I finish Season 1? And bigger question, why TF am I starting S2? I worry about myself sometimes.
