The Letter for the King

I was really enjoying the series until about episode 5. The story, characters, and visual backdrop really draw you in, and I think most of the young actors gave fine performances in spite of what some other reviews are saying. The problem, though, is that the writers decided to throw in a bunch of plot twists in the 3rd act. The attempted twists do not work and send their story straight to hell, adding it to the growing list of failed plot subversions which now include the likes of Last Jedi and Game of Thrones, S8. Screen writers need to get off the plot twist bandwagon that they all seem to have jumped on since Game of Thrones made it a thing. Somebody needs to remind them that most of the time, plot twists do not work and are a dangerous thing to attempt, because if done poorly they merely undermine the good elements that a story has built up.
