Started off good but I’m quitting
The first couple episodes were really good but the show has devolved into the hosts exhibiting that they’re just too pleased with themselves.

I he most layered films of our time and they basically say it’s about a witch (it’s not). I don’t mind an occasional f-bomb but they drop them like the uncool kid who does it to impress others.

This is not a good review show. It seems ill disciplined , and badly in need of structure and editing. Not worthwhile sadly (big Atlantic fan here)
