There's some good stuff here but the material is stretched out, with especially a lot of redundant scenes in the first half. This could have been cut down to a two-hour movie without losing anything, including atmosphere. The visuals were beautiful and there were a lot of things that will stick with me. I don't regret watching it.
A good show for double-tasking.

I don't get the negative reviews here. The series kept me engaged and is very well done! Cast is great.
Story is typical S. King.
Is a bit dark and has that mystical/magic component of S. King novels which I enjoy.
Last episodes get better. Should definitely have a better rating here.
I have been drawn to reviews here of 7/8 rating and then those shows are crap.
Probably one of the best shows on Apple Tv at the moment.

Well-acted and very pretty to look at. After the watching the first episode I'm definitely curious to see where the story is going, however, constantly jumping between different times and visions can be a little confusing.
I really wasn't going to watch this after reading all the sledgehammer negative reviews. I took a chance and wasn't disappointed with this series.
Yes it's slow, yes the subject matter is disturbing. Many aren't comfortable with subjects like self harm and, death and abuse.
As a counsellor these sort of things are an everyday subject. I found the whole series to be extremely compelling.

Watched both episodes available now and I will say it's weird. I like weird and it's definitely weird! If you don't kind of pay attention you might start to get a little lost. Lisey or Lisa, which is her real first name, starts sifting through her memories of her late husband as she finds clues he left behind that he wanted her to find after his death....this is not a spoiler as it's in the preview that he died. She has memories of these weird things but does not seem quite fazed by them. At the same time, her older sister has some issues that connect her to Lisey's husband. Another side story involves someone trying to get her late husband's unpublished manuscripts. So there is a lot going on. It's not necessarily confusing if you pay attention. After the second episode and I can already see how some things are connected, but some people may just be super confused and rate this very low. I won't rate it low yet because it kept my attention and had some intriguing aspects. So I am interested in how this weird, sometimes off the wall, story unfolds.
