Shining Girls

Don't listen to TikTok attention spans. This is a good watch. Much like Apple TV's 'Invasion' the monster is something intangible and complicated. Elizabeth Moss is fantastic and sells the fragility of her character with ease. Like a prevailing wind, darkness tatters the edges of episode 1 repeatedly, hinting at an alternate reality.

Give it a shot. You might enjoy it if have a few brain cells left up there after all the memes and gif animations have destroyed the rest.

All the dots are connecting and I'm hooked now. I too after the first couple episodes was left frustrated but now Adter watching episodes 3 & 4 I've had so many Ah ha! Moments that I'm absolutely sucked in now. Don't give up I promise if your into forensics and the supernatural you won't be disappointed.

This mystery series follows Kirby (Elizabeth Moss, MAD MEN, THE HANDMAID'S TALE) , a survivor of a violent crime, whose life constantly changes around her in odd ways, as she helps the police track down her attacker before he strikes again.

After reading some reviews, I decided to write one of my own, because I feel like this show is being largely misunderstood. The show is slow to reveal new information, because they set the viewer up with a lot right from the get-go. We already know who the attacker is, he's a mysterious serial killer played by Jamie Bell (ROCKETMAN, SNOWPIERCER). What we do not know is how he's doing it, or what exactly he's doing. There appears to be some time-travel element to his killings, and his victims experience some sci-fi after effects.

I am thoroughly enjoying this show so far. Yes, it is slow burn. But it isn't boring, far from it. It feels like a crime-thriller told in reverse, with the attacker known, but the attacks a mystery. It isn't following the typical formula for crime thrillers, but it's trying something original. Very intriguing so far, don't miss out.

I am confused by all these bad reviews. It's a tad bit of a slow burn but it's intelligent and original. I'm not a big fan of her either but that's not going to stop me from watching a good thriller that seems to have really good potential!

I don't have a clue what's going on, BUT my goodness the acting is superb. I know there is a story in this, I just haven't grasped yet. But, the way it's going, I will!!! I'm terrified and excited at the same time. Intense, dark, and puzzling.
