review dump: things unfinished
Keeping track of some stuff I didn't care to finish, for Hugo voting purposes:
Osmo Unknown and the Eightpenny Woods was unbearably twee.
Ogres felt like a tiresome belaboring of worn tropes.
Severance had an interesting premise - a writer I trusted (Greg Egan, say) might have really said some stuff with it. I did not trust the show to actually deliver anything and was not enjoying its glacial high-atmosphere low-content pacing meanwhile. Gave up after three episodes, read the summaries, am not sorry to have not spent those six hours watching all that with that payoff.
Dreams Bigger Than Heartbreak I managed to miss my checkout window with the library and am going to have to get back in the queue for. Or maybe it will be in the packet? Is there ever going to be a packet? Has there already been a packet and I just can't find any information about it?
