Surreal, but so watchable.
Sleepin_Dragon23 January 2022
Annabelle discovers a hidden talent, her talents set off a bizarre chain of events.

Dan asks what the *bleep* is going on, and that's the question I have, if I'm totally honest, I didn't have a clue what was going on here for the most part, it was surreal, it was trippy, it delivered the unexpected constantly, I wouldn't even know how to explain events, despite that I was totally entertained.

I am gripped, I'm immersed, even if I don't fully know what's going on, what I thought was a linear story of cause and effect, is anything but, you are made to question which of the main protagonists is the story's main focus.

I have no idea what to expect next, this was excellent, 8/10.

Filling Me With Anticipation
bella-enfield22 January 2022
So much happens in these episodes and that's part of its charm. The story is so full and every reveal leaves me reeling or stunned. It's so well-crafted, this show, that it sucks you in and this episode exemplifies that. This episode gives you much to chew on in regards to what's gonna happen next. It also plays on the idea of an unreliable narrator, both with Dan and with Melody.

Definitely leaves you wanting more craving the creepy, crawly feeling under your skin.

The plot thickens

Much exposition in this episode and rather fascinating.

Kudos to the artist who made the paintings for the show, they really are incredible.

This wasn't as creepy as the previous ones, i am sure they'll make up for that soon.

[8.6] The cute nose that would soon get burned
cjonesas21 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Episode 5: A little bit over-dramatized and exaggerated, but with brilliant acting by the whole main and supporting cast as well as continuous crazy plots.

The 6th floor alone was enough to make you super uneasy and that gathering and humming would crawl into your mind like an army of ants.

Melody was lucky enough to get outta there in one piece. Luck won't smile a second time, if she continues with putting her cute nose where it doesn't belong.

S1.E5 - Demon Worship [8/10]
panagiotis199329 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
(S1. E5) My Live Reaction / Review for Archive 81 Season 1 Episode 5 ''Through the Looking Glass''. The previous episode was good and I gave it a rating of 9/10. Let's see if this one is better or worse. So is Melody receiving messages from the future or something? Im confused. Melody's friend is losing it, it seems. They have a room in the building full of addicts and they keep the door closed? That's insane. The people in the building are worshiping a demon? 35 minutes in and we barely see Dan in this episode and I don't like that. Samuel has multiple identities? What the hell? Davenport shows up in the tape? What? He knows Samuel? What is going on? Samuel is Davenport's brother? I didn't see that coming. Overall this episode was good and I enjoyed it. My rating is 8/10.

Slow and feel force
AvionPrince1619 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I saw the episode. And i feel that the TV show developp a strange look for nothing. It play with sound design, music, and the rythm get really slow and even if some revelations are there: i feel the overall rythm very slow and all that just to make a weird ambience with strange sound. I found the episode pretty bored and even in the dialogues. I didnt really get into it. But im curious about how it will end.
