What a Mess
30 June 2024
This show is terrible, one season was too much.

The acting and script are awkward. A lot of weird pausing. There is no chemistry between any of the characters.

Endless learning moment after learning moment to the point where it becomes trite. Despite the episodes having all these weird learning moments no episodes has an over arching theme beyond, kid with cancer. It feels like endless b-story.

The daughter is experiencing ptsd from having gone through cancer. The father is especially a nervous overbearing presence. This is all played off but the reality is that they and their family should be in therapy.

The scenes with bald cap and long hair are ridiculously poorly done. When we flashback to times where she has cancer she is overflowing with energy, scheming and conniving with not parental supervision. These scenes don't mesh with her post treatment outlook nor the details surrounding her father who quit her job to care for her during treatment.

It's a mess all around.
