Episode 242: Kaos Review - A Dull Greek Retelling 

I absolutely adored this show....just shows how opinions can be so different

I felt that there was absolutely no chemistry between any of the characters. (Girl does not want to be with her rich, handsome and nice boyfriend because he loves her too much?? Smh Like wtf) No memorable moments, i did not find anything funny about this show. The story was boring....ummm let me think...some information about greek mythology they got wrong and i also really did not like the adaptation of the underworld. Me being a fan of greek mythology, this show offends me.

Saw Goldblum mention Kaos when hosting Kimmel then I binged watched it during Labor Day weekend between US Open matches. It was very well done & expensive looking. Anyone who knows about Greco-Roman myth knows this is arguably the best modern day re-envisioning we've seen yet. It's not your typical sword & sandal fare. Also, don't be fooled by any haters branding the show as woke. Caeneus is a famous trans myth and the way the show retooled it was cool. Overall, I was really impressed with the performances, writing, & production budget. In terms of storytelling, Kaos’ Postmodern, anachronistic approach is reminiscent of Baz’s Romeo + Juliet (1996) & the Judeo-Christian quest-filled world-building of Peacock's Mrs. Davis as well as Amazon's Good Omens. While the represented myths aren’t addressed in full, they connect to each other in ways that amplify, examine, & arrive at the question and genesis of modern, secular humanity. Plus, the dark comedy tone is fun & campy, too. From a programming perspective, Kaos fills the void of shows like Umbrella Academy & Sandman. It is also aligned with Netflix’s other Hellenic programming like Blood of Zeus. The diverse casting is overwhelmingly British, per Netflix UK, but is conscientious & dynamic without feeling heavy-handed or shoe-horned.

dude.... the quality?????the thumbnail?????SIS

The soundtrack is all over the place, couldn't go past ep 1 😅

I couldn’t even get through 10 minutes of the first episode. I feel like the show couldn’t help but use reference humor to make us go “oh look it’s Jeff Goldblum as Zeus! Oh look it’s Hera in the modern age!”.

It was dull and convoluted. Jeff didn't have much to do but he was at least trying to have fun with it.

This show right here I didn’t even give a chance. And I usually give everything a chance. I have a show that would like you to talk about. Let’s talk about, well actually I have an order if all possible? Suits, Blue Collars, Lucifer, Prison Break, Ozarks. I have more but that leaves a good start. I don’t know if you have done any of these. I’ve looked through your videos, but I don’t remember recalling any of those. Those are my favorite TV shows. The oldest one there is prison break. also vampire diaries is a good one. Appreciate your insight. Maybe we can collapse someday go live together. We come up with a plan at a time and a date we can go live and discuss a topic a movie and a TV show or something that you would like to do and that also would probably give views and subscribers and stuff like that fast. We could go off your life channel unless you can’t and then we can go off mine either way. If you’d like to.

Anybody else sick and tired of Netflix's obsession with arse bandits?

The show is peak woke and pretty boring. It's trying to be like The Boys but lacking all the good stuff, probably because it's super woke.

Its high concept, but a bit gay at times.
