This season, Who Killed Sara seems to be on a different trajectory. The beats are more frantic and the revelations less interesting, leaving the show feeling more like a soap opera than a crime mystery. It’s still an enjoyable watch, but it’s not as strong as it was in Season 1.
The second season of “Stranger Things” lost some of the nuance the first season had, doubling down on the twists but losing the tight plot and mystery. The third season just throws everything and the kitchen sink at these 7 episodes, navigating around realms of thriller, melodrama, mystery, horror and even fantasy. ..
Despite the short and snappy chapters, season 3 still somehow meanders through its plot before actually picking things up for the final 2 or 3 chapters, ironically titled “What happened to Sara” and “What Did You Do, Sara?” Despite the short and snappy chapters, season 3 still somehow manages to drag its feet through its plot before finally picking things up for the final 2 or 3 chapters, ironically titled “What happened to Sara” and “What Did You Do, Sara?” ..
The first chapter of the book is relatively straightforward, but the route leading there is certainly wrangled with diversions, flashbacks, drip-fed reveals and some genuinely bizarre character turns. ..
But suffice it to say that the showrunners have had to come up with a unique way to tell the story of a group of people who are constantly on the move, and who must rely on their wits and their relationships to survive.
The third season of “The Good Place” picks up where we left off at the end of last year’s romp. Marifer has survived the fire -barely – while Alex is more determined than ever to learn the truth about what happened to Sara.
Sara’s grave is dug up and her coffin is empty. He sets to work trying to uncover, once and for all, what happened to his sister. ..
This year’s season of “Who Killed Sara?” tries to mirror what we saw in season 1, with interspersed shots of Sara’s ordeal and how that ties into Cesar, Reinaldo and a secretive area known simply as Medusa Center. The latter point is where the show moves into fantasy and light bites of horror, which feels juxtaposed to how Who Killed Sara had played out originally.
The mystery of Who Killed Sara is not as compelling as it could be. ..
The horror genre is a type of genre that often deals with dark and suspenseful themes. It can be about ghosts, witches, monsters, or other dark things. This type of horror often has a lot of suspense and fear in it. It can make you feel scared or worried.
The shift in focus from the other subplots to Chema’s survival leaves them feeling weaker and less important. For example, there is a separate thread involving Chema trying to survive, but it goes nowhere until episode 5, leaving you wondering what the point of it all was. ..
The soap opera-esque subplots don’t work, while the central plot is strong. ..
The writers of “The Walking Dead” have been aware of how crazy the show has become and are trying to outdo themselves, but going back to that tightrope analogy earlier, season 3 wobbles, stumbles and topples over without ever looking like recovering.
That’s still entertaining, in the same morbidly curious way you’d watch the above scenario play out in real-time, but the result is nowhere near as entertaining as a more successful routine (ala. the first season.) But if there’s one bright spot in a rickety season of highs and lows, it’s that we do, in fact, find out who killed Sara.
