The Third Day: Friday - The Father (2020)
Season 1, Episode 1
5/10
Pick up the pacing!
15 September 2020
The director needs to get his act together and fix the pacing of the show. Every scene is drawn out as if its supposed to add a sense of drama and tension, but when everything is dramatically slow, nothing stands out. There is never a sense of normalcy to ground the viewer, just constant, slow-moving and largely-ineffective attempts to build tension upon tension upon tension.

Acting is good and premise has promise, which is the only reason I'm giving it an all too generous 5/10, despite disliking the direction so intensely.
