Finally getting around to finishing this as I didn't feel like binging due to the repetitive structure to the episodes (ANOTHER Usher dead, again?).
Haunting of Hill House is still my favorite Flanagan #Netflix limited series.
Like this more than Midnight Mass because of the Poe callbacks and the very creative kills.
Unfortunately, like Midnight Mass, there are narrative-killing monologues and exposition dumps. You can hear a character (usually Bruce Greenwood) start a navel-gazer, call DoorDash and by the time the Very Important Monologue finishes, your food will be there.
You feel like you should be taking notes like you'll be tested on this later. Every performer is well cast, especially an against-type Carla Gugino. Mark Hamill gives good growl.
8 episodes where you could have done 6 if it weren't for the speechifying.
Took it long enough to fall.
If you want to see an excellent drama/mystery show with an impressive attention to technical detail & accuracy, check out A Murder at the End of the World on Hulu. #tvshows#mystery#streaming
