Tales from the Loop 2020 / An atmospheric mystery about an underground experiment that gets tighter the more answers you get

Do mysteries get better the more questions you resolve? They often don’t, plus resolutions can also eliminate a need for rewatching. But that’s not the case here with Tales from the Loop, a story that gets tighter and more substantial the more answers you get. It goes for an eerie, atmospheric vibe, allowing viewers to get a feel for the world with a slow burn unveiling of context. There’s a gloom to the way it handles the bridge between reality and its (for lack of a better word) supernatural, but it’s still a comfort to watch. It’s easy on the eyes, dialogue and performances are measured, and if you have the headspace for long episodes, it’s a well-executed show in general that’s worth your time.
