Show should have been half hour like the original. How quick it got to the point was part of the appeal
Yep, the stories weren't engaging enough for 1 hour, that's why I didn't even finish season 1, I always choosed to watch something else instead of this until I ended up completly forgeting about it, 30 minutes would had been perfect to watch while eating dinner, on the bus etc.

Us is a perfectly fine movie. It works really well as a home invasion flick, I actually think it would've been near perfect if he decided to not explain the doppelgangers at all. A lot of writers tend to go OD with exposition dumps

Have been very disappointed with his work after Get Out. I thought he was a genius and on some Kubrick shot, but didn’t like Us and this Twilight Zone was so wack I had to watch a couple old twilight episodes on Netflix after. I saw both seasons. Still will support him, but I hope he bounces back with better work, because so far he is a one hit wonder for me. He tried to use a different angle on his version of twilight zone in a attempt to be more philosophical. But unfortunately it completely zapped the sci-fi aspect of the show that is what the show centered on in the past. There were no cool what if’s or alternate universe concepts that were intriguing. I mean it’s called the twilight zone
