While episode 3 is definitely the best of all the episodes so far, I'm still extremely disappointed with this series.
I can do without all the 'wackiness' that seems to take up nearly half of each episode.
I really do not need to see another scene of them arsing about with some shopping trolleys or whatever cut to a Bow Wow Wow soundtrack.
It's lazy writing.
Also I'm not really sure about the format of having comedy immediately followed by brutally shocking violence.
The whole pace of it is just all over the place and there's a lot of characters that seem a bit pointless and unconvincing.
Basically it would have been a million times better if Jack Thorne wasn't involved.
He wrote an awful show over here called Skins and a lot of people are saying TIE86 is just 'Skins in the 80s'.
I'll stick with it but it's just hugely disappointing.
I'm hoping the return of Combo will liven things up a bit but they've got a lot to cover in the last episode. |
