Stranger Things: Chapter Eight: Papa (2022)
Tell, don't Show : The Exposition Episode.
Boring Episode full of exposition between all characters.
The sharing of information and feelings with each other that not only the characters already knew (mostly), but the Audience already knew - or had at the very least - easily surmised.
Show, don't tell. Stranger Things had already shown us - why did they think we needed all this exposition to re-tell us?
Also, maybe it was just me, but I really didn't care about the Papa and Eleven relationship, particularly not at this stage. It was a yawn. And it was obvious how it was going to end. But we had to sit through exposition between these two this Episode - possibly the whole Season.
What a momentum killer after Episode 7 was terrific.
Yakamoz S-245 (2022)
TV Show about the Sun without the Sun in it
Imagine if you will a TV Show about the Sun suddenly creating carnage on Earth and it's Inhabitants, but the Viewer doesn't get to to see any of it... that's this TV Show.
In fact, the Sun 'doing things' or 'creating suspense' is hardly in the TV Show.
If you like dumb characters doing stupid things and standing around bickering, then this is for you.
