Anomalías

I'm usually not into shows about aliens or outer space (with a few rare exceptions), but I watched Glitch anyway in support of Jeon Yeobeen because I'm a fan of her. I saw some clips of the show online and it looked like it might actually be entertaining. Glitch has some really funny scenes as well as some relatable ones that tug at the heartstrings. I love a good urban fantasy series, thriller, or mystery. Glitch has those elements of sci-fi and suspense. That being said, I also lost interest at some points because some storylines seemed to drag on with no real substance while others felt rushed and unfinished. There were so many plot holes. I was left a bit confused on a few things after finishing the whole series. I don't think there will be another season, so there will never be any further explanation. All of the actors had great chemistry so I enjoyed that aspect of the show. There was potential with the church / cult storyline, and I typically like movies and shows about religion and the occult, but Glitch really fumbled it. This show had the potential to be a lot better, but I was left feeling like it was kind of pointless. There's only 10 episodes and each was so chaotic with too many things going on and side characters with their own agendas. Glitch fails to develop these characters and storylines enough. It all falls flat. Some of the characters also did some really dumb things which annoyed me because they're all supposed to be grown adults aged 30+ lol Overall, the show is highly unrealistic and frustrating at times, but it's mostly entertaining if you can get passed all that. I think if the ending had been better, I could say it was a good show. The ending especially was anticlimactic. It was bizarre and confusing in a frustratingly lackluster way not a cool thought provoking way. I found myself thinking things like, "That's it?" and "What was that even supposed to mean? What was the point?" . Glitch could be quite enjoyable if you don't take it seriously at all and you're not a critical viewer. If you're watching it for the aliens, you'll be disappointed. It's not nearly as much about aliens as you'd expect. Give it a chance if you like K dramas with a supernatural twist. This show isn't for everyone though.

The story is an adventure with protagonist against her head and against aliens.

I loved the all the side characters, each group delivered different kind of comedy and events.

All the episodes are eventful and light nothing serious but still interesting.

I'll refer to hong ji-hyo as the main lead, and huh Bora as the second lead according to their appearance order.

The main lead was so good in her role, her acting felt natural and sincere which is a hard thing to deliver in a drama-comedy. I loved how she looked natural unlike female lead in Korean series where they usually act and dresses to look so pretty and cute even if it's not needed. I have seen her in night in paradise and she really stand out from most Korean actresses. She is beautiful and talented.

The second female lead was a bit over the top with her acting and hairstyle. She was suppose to be the boyish free girl, but she wore full makeup all the time withe perfect curled hair and childish outfits. Her facial expressions "even the silly ones" were camera-posing like expressions. Don't get me wrong she was fine but being in the same frame with the main characters made her acting looks tacky.

Finally, The dynamic between the leads was built on mi-school brief friendship. And the second lead is upset until now and blame the main lead for it, and that was funny and immature for grown woman. She felt the an possessed ex girl friend and it was silly. She remided me of thst one episode of friends whene ross meet a hight school friend"brad bitt" and he He makes fun about how they used to be obsessed with dinosaurs while Rosa is still geeky about it. But in this series she is still a 15 mentally. They definitely have chemistry but thats not everything.

Some parts of the early episodes had some uncomfortably long scenes, so I was worried the whole series would be like that. Fortunately it picked up, with only occasional filler dialogue.

I didn't love the ending. I didn't hate it either, but was rather anti-climactic and still left some questions unanswered.

The acting by the leads was outstanding, and they had fantastic chemistry as their friendship rekindled. I'm really noncommittal about the sidekicks, and they were just kind of there to me. But the dad, the director, and scary cult leader stood out for their roles.

Anyway, it's a nice enough series, had some thought-provoking moments, with not too many episodes. I do recommend.

Awesome series! Binge watch all over and over again!

JEON YEOBEEN'S ACTING IS TOP-NOTCH! She gave me goosebumps with her amazing expressions at each episodes!

The whole cult scenes was scary but thanks to the comedy scenes, I was able to enjoy the the whole series!

I must say yeobeen and Nana chemistry was SUPERB! I want the friendship their characters had! I also love yeobeen and ryu kyungsoo chemistry even though they had little scenes together, they were still able to flow with each other, over all yeobeen/ hong jihyo brought laughter and tears to my face! Thank you! Jeon Yeobeen a World-class Actress so TRUE!

Unfortunately the writing completely falls apart at episode five and beyond. The story moves in the opposite direction you hope for.

This series betrays the audiences trust by fronting as a movie predominantly about aliens. It then goes even further by betraying its own sub context about mental health with it's terrible ending.

• Acting is over the top
• Characters feel like a caricature or a parody of real people
• The series is twice as long as it needs to be
• The dubbing is mediocre, but, passable

I can only imagine how cool this series could of been if it leaned into its science fiction direction harder, and, maybe drop the green helmet.
