Something Undone

These short episodes are really watchable. Most of the cast will not be well-known in the UK, but they are professional, no question. The photography is great and the screenplay maybe a little overdone but I'll forgive that. Video and sound quality are both right up there - I guess many would expect no less. It's been said that at a half-hour show per episode it's a filler, but I'm not complaining about that as the choice is there to just keep watching. Ten episodes out there so far. ITVx is pushing out a lot of old and new material on its streaming service these days and it probably needs to in these competitive times.

There's some very negative reviews around but I don't get it. I thought this well well-paced, well-acted, holding its atmosphere throughout segueing between is it horror, is it creepy serial killer or possible mental illness? Podcast culture was the pitch and style. I do think the idea that the Foley artist was the podcast star was a bit daft although personally I do always keep a fresh stick of celery to hand just is case I need a quick sound effect. I thought the story line bringing in a skewed new age wellness community boss was a wrong turn but I thought it was otherwise excellent. Gets 8/10 on my creepy killer / horror / mental health / atmospheric Canadian wilds rating scale.

Loved every moment of this show! Makes me proud to be Canadian. Finally some quality Canadian content that makes you think. I was on the edge of my seat for most of the season. The sound design is incredible and I really enjoyed the score throughout. I highly recommend enjoying the show with headphones. The cbc gem app is a little annoying to navigate but there are some great shows on the platform and it's free which feels rare these days. Was so great seeing Billy Campbell- huge fan of his work on Cardinal. The cinematography was beautiful!! Looking forward to seeing more from these creators.

And that is the ending, what the hell happend

Neither you like this serie or not I think we all can agree about the start was very good, I was nailed the 4 first episodes, spooky, clever, mystic and just well done, but just when it felt like this serie could be the best ever, something turns and then it went down faster than a submarine with a screen door

No , it just made a meteorite fall and crashed real hard , the story could have been so good but they just wanted this stupid drama so much it destroyed the whole serie, annoying characters and a bad director helped alot also

Its not a good serie, but sure , its ok to watch a rainy sunday, but not a friday evning with popcorn in your lap.

This dropped on itvX -- a free streaming service in the UK -- yesterday (14 Dec 2023) -- and I binged it. It was highlighted in the TV listings magazine I read so I was hopeful it would be at least half decent. Unfortunately, it's worth just about what I paid to see it. There's so much filler and so little thriller that I recommend you give it a miss.

The real problem here is the weak screenplay (and the weak underlying story). But also, more competent actors in the two lead roles could perhaps have brought more of a sense of realism to things. I couldn't buy Michael Musi as the supposed stellar podcaster, nor Madison Walsh as this supposed groundbreaking Foley artist (her "outstanding" sound effects for the podcast were supposed to be its USP).

Farid (played by Michael Musi) is supposed to be in some serious degree of peril, and yet he ambles around as if he's conducting his interviews in a pretty benign environment. And the whole Jo (played by Madison Walsh) "subplot" as she clears her dead mother's house is so confusing that I really struggled to know what was supposed to be actually happening and what she was imagining.

Such a mess. Please give it a miss.
