Pachinko (2022– )
4/10
Lost quality and coherence in middle.

Well this is a very strange show to review. It started off like an absolute classic. The first 3 episodes were breathtaking. I was actually surprised as I don't expect Apple tv to make any watchable tv series. However, soon enough the story became disjointed. New characters were introduced without explanation. Story kept changing direction and shifted timeline in every 5 minutes. Characters came and went with no closure. After 5 episodes it seemed a new series has started. The lead actress kept a single expression on her face right from first episode till last. The worst part is that the script itself is boring so all blame can't be placed on direction and acting. Sadly what started with the pretense of a classic, turned out to be boring damp squib. I am not sure if I would torment myself with the 2nd season, but you never know. Apple tv just can't do it.
