The Bridge (2020)
A shame really.
Just like a couple of others I've seen posted here this could have been a great show. When you try to Americanise an English show, or Anglicize an American show (I'm still not sure which one was done here, lolz) it very very rarely, if ever, works.
Series 1
The fact that the "Floaters' they use are in fact modular pontoons and could of got them if not all of the way there then at least a good portion, over half to three quarters of the way, without ever having touched a piece of wood, frankly makes the entire show pretty pointless.
The one saving factor that kept me watching with some interest was when they introduced the way way over the top American woman. I was just waiting for anyone of the English "contestants" to fly off the handle and wade into her. I couldn't help but liken it to a lamb that had somehow wandered into a lions den at which the lions expressed confusion and were somewhat taken aback more than the flesh rending savagery most commonly expected.
If your into incredibly lame shows that require zero neurons firing and a complete suspension of logic then this is the show for you.
Otherwise.... give it a hard pass.
Series 2
Hhmm, well, at time the of writing this it was not yet fully out. Though I'm frankly not surprised that a series 2 was green lit. Par for the course these fine bright days.
