I've managed to get through a surprising amount of TV this year. Content warning: child death, teeth (?), puppets/dolls
Mike Painter (Paul Schneider) lost his twin brother, Eddie (Luca Villacis), when they were 12-years-old in part of a series of unsolved murders. Afterwards, his mother (Fiona Shaw) sent Mike away to live with his dad. But thirty years later, after a disturbing series of visions, Mike returns to Iron Hill at the same time a strange show only visible to children called Candle Cove returns to TV.
I was very excited about the monster design on this one, but I have to admit, the first half is better than the second. It's only six-episodes long and it is still really good; I just felt like it couldn't sustain the energy of the first couple of episodes. Still, Shaw is a great actress and anchors this cast. It's an anthology show so it is a complete story and I'll watch the other seasons, but probably not this year.
