Customer Reviews
Disappointing - great for putting you to sleep
Premise is good and voice actors have wonderful voices, but the script is so bad. Author needs a good editor. People don't say things like "there was a light and it's colour was blue-green" and "I set it upon" they say "it had a blue-green light" and "I put it on". One actor speaks in a southern drawl for no good reason and throws in stock phrases like "don't mind me" totally out of context. And for an inexplicable reason does the main character's chores. There's an unhealthy dynamic there - Black women clean up after white men - both physically and emotionally? With a good editor the episodes might be half the length with far more drama and realism. So unfortunate because there is a potentially good story buried here.
Awesome!
I just recently found this and have been binging. I love it. I love the actors and the script. I love the interactions between the characters and the variety. Great job!! Always looking forward to the new episodes.
You HAVE to listen to this show
If you’re into world-building or creatures or found family or mysterious organizations or huge discoveries or awesome characters or spooky music or adventuring or nihilism or weird things you can’t explain or facing fears or finding beauty in horror…… please give Syntax a shot. Season two is about halfway through right now and I eagerly await each new episode. I’m surprised by the amount of negative reviews, don’t let those make your decision for you! Love this show
