Goosebumps (2023– )
5/10
The perks of being Riverdale/Goosebumps cash grab
17 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
THIS DOES CONTAIN SPOILERS. If you like teenage fantasy dramas. The "will they, wont they" relationship type triangles. Then you should have fun with this. DO NOT EXPECT, anything more than the above. They lure you in with some classic Goosbumps stories in the first 3-4 episodes, Which really are great and super fun, to then completely toss that out the window for "How do I tell my childhood friend I love her" drama, the "ending" the writer searched for ironically sets up the franchise, IMO Mr. Bratt should have just been an analytical type writer who simply documents the extraordinary, making it seem like fiction. Then it would have been better to let Kuddoo win the battle in episode 10, then set up the series through the chaotic fallout from his one and only winning planned ritual, as the writer documents it all through helping out the kids, creating "R. L. Stein's" books series based on whats left of the the people in the town as they start piecing their lives back together, through multiple seasons, they discover all the monsters, mysteries and ultimately slappy/kuddoo weaknesses, get their families back and restore the world they once knew. For a split second I thought they would do it, but it was a fake out, for a basic "He's not really dead" type ending.

Dont expect too much.
