Locke & Key (2020–2022)
3/10
A great premise wasted ... by lazy writing and incredibly annoying protagonists.
1 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The least annoying character in the whole show ... is the supposed baddie, Dodge.

At least she's beautiful, badass, single-minded, ruthless, focused, and smart.

The supposed "good guys" are by turns, stupid, disorganised, self-absorbed, reckless, and essentially, always seem to rely on "dumb luck" to make it through to the next "battle."

Accordingly, you just want Darwinism to kick in, and see them all die off. Unfortunately that doesn't happen.

The writers of this show need a solid kick up the backside, for making these characters do the dumbest stuff imaginable ... which is what makes them so annoying that you just can't root for them.

I get that it's for teenagers ... but really, have we dumbed-down people so much by now, that they'll put up with having their intelligence insulted to this degree?

Sadly, it appears so. :(
