Defending Jacob
definitely a strong first 7 episodes(6 and 7 were amazing) and then episode 8 comes along. i was fully prepared to give this a 4.5/5 but for a series finale as apple labeled it as, it didn’t work for me. episode 8 was great until those last 5 or so minutes. anyway that’s my big annoyance with the series let’s talk about positives. Chris Evans is phenomenal but the real standout is Michelle Dockery, wow what a performance she gave here!!! She really makes the show worth watching here. Jaeden Martell was fine, I didn’t think he was great nor terrible, he was just fine. Cherry Jones and J.K. Simmons give great supporting performances here and really shine when they’re on screen. The mystery and twists were all incredibly strong and made this show an easy one to binge. If Apple TV+ keeps producing more content like The Morning Show and this show(minus those closing few minutes) this has a chance to be a truly great streaming service worthy of your $5 a month.
