Stumptown: Dex, Drugs and Rock & Roll (2019)
Season 1, Episode 6
6/10
A decent episode, but a step down
4 January 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The main arc is familiar enough. A rock star has a stalker, bla-bla, quite the predictable stuff right to the reveal. Tookie's side-story was much better (aaand tastier). Same goes for Grey and Ansel who is just such a sweet soul, you could tell he felt abandoned the moment Grey started conversing with the woman. I thought it was an organic build-up on the last episode. Grey has his own complicated life and Ansel is starting to realize that which is probably painful for him. PS: What's with all the paranoid "homophobe" accusations? Dex is bi in the graphic novel, it'd be a good idea if they explore that in a deeper and more meaningful manner. This episode's pseudo-romance felt forced and formulatic. Fiona actually addressing the situation while being interrogated? It felt very pulp and ultimately lead to nothing.
