Brimstone (1998–1999)
7/10
A fun show, with lots of spirit! (See what I did there?)

I recently found Brimstone while looking for shows from the 90s that might have been overlooked and boy was I pleased! It was exactly what I was looking for: That 90s (pre-woke) feel, different mysteries and puzzles to solve with each episode as opposed to a single, season long plot and elements of the supernatural.

If I had to pick one thing I disliked, it would be the scenes with Lori Petty. I don't know what kind of character she was going for, but the ridiculous accent and mannerisms were completely off-putting.

She was apparently the "it girl" for a brief period of time during the 90s and decided to resort to over the top scenery chewing and phony voice affectations to try and steal the scenes. Fortunately, she's only in a few episodes so she isn't a drag on the show too much.

But overall the show is a lot of fun with great atmosphere. If you see it around, check it out!
