Exhausting, stale, and missing so many opportunities to tell a fresh fantasy story, CarnivalRow resorts to tired tropes | Review:
have all managed to wring genuine complexity out of the real-world issues their monstrous avatars crack open for investigation,approaches its narrative with all the subtlety of the hammer the first episode’s Ripper-like villain uses to bash faerish folks’ brains in.
“At least this violence against women is a motivating force for Vignette, not a man,” I wrote in my notes as Delevingne dropped into the shot to strangle one of the show’s inexplicably hairless werewolves with a fae piano wire, but at less that five minutes in, I was already exhausted.
What’s most frustrating about all these choices is, as little as I personally care for nudity and extended sex scenes in the television I watch,has conjured up a world in which there are some genuinely fascinating openings for sex and nakedness to be used as a visually inventive way to transport the audience, by extending the feeling of transcendence that floating human-faerie sex is presumably meant to have.
If you do give this series a chance, though, one final note: Beyond all of the stale narrative decisions discussed above, this show’s sound mixing is often so murky that it’s literally impossible to hear unless your volume is turned up 300% louder than you’d normally have it. So when the first season finally does drop, flip those subtitles on, baby!
