“Beautifully written and intelligently paced, this well-acted show deserves all of the accolades it has received (and which pointed me to it in the first place). It doesn’t fall victim to the “must explain mystery one before presenting mystery two to keep momentum going” trope. It paces out both mysteries and revelations in a way that we, as the audience, suspend disbelief and keep faith along with the characters themselves, as they do the same. As they say to themselves, “well, I guess we believe in _____ now,” it’s easy for us to say we kind of do, too. It’s brilliant.
And once season five hits - that’s where the perfection of the show really sets in. We come to realize that, all along, there’s been a plan. All along, there’s been a focused resolution to the characters and their journeys, and each one of them is given the honor of a beautiful and poignant period at the end of their five-season-long sentence. It’s really lovely.
I encourage you to listen to the entire show - all five seasons. The characters, their relationships, and their growth as people are as engaging as the “WTH is happening in this town” mystery that underlies the show. It’s really a wonderful ride. Best podcast I’ve listened to in years.”

“It never gets better, as others have said, the plot is poor. The voice casting is off. I understand moving beyond ethnic and racial boundaries, but characters voices don’t match their age.”

“The show is slow to the jump, to many personalities with hidden agendas. Another show about a small town yet riddled with gay characters. Also the end talks about occupied land. I think you don’t understand the difference between occupied and conquered.”

“....but the characters need to be slapped on the regular...OMG. The guy that works at the boarding house is irritating AF, and the main characters mother? Wow, she would test the patience of our Savior himself. I think it has potential, but there needs to be more plot development, more story...”Read full review »
