From Bad Sisters to 13 Reasons Why and beyond - sometimes less is more on television.
The series shared a DNA with the best for being engrossing entertainment.
Not to mention movie legends Sissy Spacek and Sam Shepard in the supporting roles.
13 Reasons Why
Its still dumbfounding to think that13 Reasons Whywent on for four (!)
We all know thewhyat this point, but that doesnt make it hurt any less.
It was an ugly and triggering mental health trip in High Schooler Country, which was precisely the point.
The show held a defiant willingness to explore uncomfortable areas where few (or none) had been before.
But perhaps the attention that boldness has drawn is what killed the series afterward altogether.
The result is a troubled legacy stained with scandals, poor reviews, and disappointed viewers.
Itd be unreasonable to callBig Little Lies season 2 awful by any means.
Unnecessary and redundant, on the other hand?
Its the miniseries that refused to stay a miniseries just because it could.
That goes for the writers, too.
All the essential themes (trauma, guilt, abuse, etc.)
Overall, the follow-up just wasnt needed and weakened the impact of the show.
Squid Game
I wish Netflixs South Korean sensation wasnt on this list.
To put it bluntly: its a cash grab.
Initially, he didnt even want to continue the show.
