Customer Reviews
Good
Overall I enjoy the podcast- I don’t understand the Gordon dislike, he’s fine. The main character is a bit shrill and some of the dialogue is a bit… sitcom-y one liners and little jokes that i could do without bc it’s meaningless banter. Like 5-6 lines to convey something that could be conveyed in 1 -2 lines. But it’s fine. The setting is cool - Id like more description somehow and less banter but not sure how that could work in an audio drama without a narrator? Anyway it’s creative and clearly a lot of work went into it. I appreciate the bridge water crossover. I do agree with another reviewer that felt uncomfortable with the use of Native American myth. Coulda used something else….thats a bit dated and used and has some valid criticisms. But I’d definitely listen to another season or a cross over/ spin off. (Oh and if any producers are reading : the variation in voice is super helpful for a generation raised on tv and internet! The sheriff was instantly recognizable of course but other secondary characters like Avery’s parents took a second- especially since episodes are short and spread out. )
One issue
I only took a star off cus of the use of the something from native mythos. The W@;&:o is not something that anyone should be using their stories
Stinker
I really enjoyed the Bridgewater series, but the quality of writing and acting in this one took a massive nosedive. I kept listening, kind of like you might keep eating something awful in the hopes the next bite will taste better…but it just never does.
