The Big Swindle (2023)
Not a bad show, but...
They have this "psychologist" who is so obnoxious, he's basically just airtime filler. The stories are decent but the psychologist just fills it with such BS telling us what we already know like "at this point, the victim must be feeling pretty bad.." like duh, dude. If you take him out, I'd give it a 6-7. But add him in and it immediately takes 2pts off.
He doesn't offer anything that's actually new information or insightful. He's just a waste of time and explains common sense to the viewer. I actually had to stop watching bc this aspect was so grating. It was like he was mainsplaining emotions to us.
Feel the Beat (2020)
Loved it, but needed closure
Two of the girls did not have stories that resolved. The one who she told was a terrible dance got NO redemption she was just forced to watch her friends from the wings, what's up with that? Didn't even get an apology? And Sarah who had her fake boobs fall out in front of the guy she liked...we never saw him again.
Of course the plot was cheesy and predictable but if you're a performer like me you'll understand and love it. I loved it.
If you're going to do the cheesy predictable plot though, go all the way and tie it up nicely with a bow on top. I needed resolutions for the girls.
OTHERWISE, 💖
