4 Swirlies

“I got another call tonight. Someone wants to meet.”

Really slick. Really well produced. Everything about it is pro – the acting, lighting, sound, everything. I wanted to come back to this series, not only because I’m getting around to series that I started posting and then sorta let slide, but this series has been winning awards and getting a lot of buzz.

You know, the first episode of this series was amazing. But since I feel a little let down. This episode was better than the second – it still gets 4 swirlies – but I feel like there’s not much going on in each episode. It is heavily serialized, which is enough to drag some people in, but for me I want some story for each episode. When you’ve only got 3 minutes, you really have to make it count.

I think this episode is bridging later stories. I see there’s 7 episodes on YouTube, so are we closing in on the halfway point? Hopefully it’ll pick up soon, and the arc of all seven, taken together will be worth it.
