Hot Skull (2022)
5/10
The story sits on pause from episode 4 to 8

Warning: Spoilers
There were a lot of problems with this series. One thing is, why do all the middle aged schlub makes have hot wives 15 years younger than them? It was creepy. It's not their age so much as they are not attractive or fit. And everyone acts as if OF COURSE HOT YOUNG WOMEN would be thrilled to be approached by a creep at an abandoned bus stop.

The other criticism I have is that from episode 4-8 the story progression stops and instead becomes a series of tasks Murat must go through to find Ozgur. Its literally like one of those app puzzle games. It deflated all tension.

That is their biggest problem. I compare the pace to that of Dark and 1899 and in those series they brilliantly hold the tension by surprise twists at the end of each episode that push us closer to the truth. You can't skip episodes because you won't understand the ending. But, with Hot Skull, I literally skipped from E5 to E8 and didn't miss a thing that I needed to understand the end.
