## His and Hers The series follows Anna, a former TV presenter, who investigates a murder in the town where she grew up. Her involvement brings her into conflict with her ex-husband, Detective Jack Harper, who becomes suspicious of her role in the case and soon turns into a suspect himself, uncovering a mystery full of lies and dark secrets.

The story is set in 1962 and focuses on the origins of the Evil through the disappearance of a child, Matty Clements, which becomes the center of an unofficial investigation led by a small group of friends.

They manage to convey both fear and their personal conflicts very effectively. * Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise is excellent, just like in the films. * I liked that midway through the season we learned more about Pennywise’s origin story. * It has plenty of creepy moments. * There is a LOT of blood. * Great 1960s atmosphere. * Very high production quality, especially for television. * Some effects are genuinely WOW. * Nice Easter eggs throughout. * I liked how it portrays a society that is slowly falling apart internally. The script clearly carries social commentary. 🔴🔴🔴🔴 * The whole military subplot did not really contribute much to the story 🤷‍♂️ * The middle of the season drags a bit with too much talking. * It loses its pacing at certain points, although thankfully it recovers 😅 * Some scenes feel overly exaggerated, even if the show’s themes can support that tone. * A few visual effects look a little clumsy.
