Featured reviews
I enjoyed the first season of this show, it was a slow burn that kept me hooked although a bit confusing at times. Having just binged the second season, I have to say it is even better. The acting is great, the camera work and directing excellent and the story moves along at a good pace. Even with what we already knew from the first season there was a good mystery element that played out from the opening scene as we went backwards to find out what happened. Would definitely recommend!
Enjoyed the show and would give it a solid recommendation. My interested peaked around the midpoint of the season then gradually dissipated. The acting was superb.
I read a few of the reviews prior to watching this. The initial perception - it is slow to start. However, the first few episodes provide those key tie-in's that end up making this a very entertaining show! Having been in Iraq for 5 years, this show sure hit home. Very good! Thought provoking! Haha, yes I binged watched it. Is definitely worth it! Enjoy it folks!
Season 1 of Homecoming is interesting. It unravels in a way that intrigues and holds you in suspense until the end. I was thoroughly invested and binge watched and was satisfied with the storyline. 8/10.
Season 2 of Homecoming is super boring. Why was it even made? Janelle Monae is fine. But her character just isn't interesting, and nor is the story. 5/10. I don't know the person who really wants to sit through this slog.
My average is 7/10, but season 1 is definitely of a different caliber than season 2, and I wish I could rate them separately.

Seriously I feel like I need a prescription of Xanax or something after watching this. Something about it is unnerving. I don't think I've ever actually watched something that gave me anxiety like this LoL it's good though, it's really good - no doubt about that.
