Rip Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 4 episodes in and Midnight Mass is AMAZING. Very slow burn but my god that writing and dialogue is off the charts. Loving it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll catch episode 4 tonight and then *maybe* finish it next weekend because we’ve got 4 straight nights of youth sports M-Th and I’m hopefully going to go catch Titane next Saturday. It’s frustrating finding time to watch stuff during the week! Rip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Midnight Mass was probably the best show I’ve seen since Bly Manor came out. Flanagan is the best. I really hope we keep getting shows like this from him. iwokeinrelief 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I've really liked the two Midnight Mass episodes I've seen. I don't like watching more than 1 episode of anything a day, so it'll probably take me the rest of the week to finish it, but I'm pretty excited for the next ep. The desolate seatown is a nice change from the big houses of Bly/Hill House. Small aside, the sound design really messes with my dog, especially the bird sounds. He normally doesn't register TV at all, but this seems to get his attention. Rip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdomestic Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I'm on episode 4 of Midnight Mass. Couldn't figure out if I liked it or where it was going after the first two episodes but it really picked up at the third. Glad I stuck with it! I'm hoping to finish it off this week. Need to catch up on new Creepshow episodes too. Rip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdomestic Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Watched episode 6 of Midnight Mass last night. I found the last twenty minutes or so extremely intense, even as someone pretty well accustomed to horror. Hamish Linklater deserves an award for this series. So charismatic, intense and sinister all at once. Absolutely fantastic performance. Planning to watch the finale tonight.

iwokeinrelief Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Finished Midnight Mass last night - general (spoiler free) thoughts: Not as good as Hill House, but significantly better than Bly (which, to be clear, I *did* enjoy). I also really like the more outdoor / island setting vs another haunted house. Flanagan loves monologues, and he leans in heavy here on those; I think if you’re a fan of his work this will certainly satisfy, but I also am not sure if it’s going to convert any of his detractors. Screw them though. So glad for Flanagan’s continuing relationship with Netflix, hope to keep getting shows of this caliber on an annual basis. As a shot/chaser combo I followed episode 7 of MM with the two newest episodes of What We Do In the Shadows 😂 highly recommended.

It’s super specific, and I typically like her (and liked her in this), but both of Kate Seigal’s couch monologues grated like hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked two of the shorts, downright hated one and thought one was ok, but overstayed its welcome. The wrap around was a bit of a dud too. Still better than the 3rd one though.
