Have you watched the Haunting of Bly Manor yet?
Vote
And what was up with the ghost rules being different? Yeah, I get that I liked the early going and the ending, but the show kinda just drops to a snail's pace for a few episodes. Otherwise the 2-year wait sucked. Hopefully the next one will be sooner, although who knows how anything will with COVID. afaik they haven't announced anything for a third series. Have you seen it? Thoughts? --- (/)(/)|-| ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's like the first time my name has been featured in a show, even though they spell it differently. I watch it out of patriotic DUTY. Six episodes in.
Probably not as good as Hill House. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Seems like they're going for the American Horror Story formula with the same actors playing different characters in every series

I'm about 4 episodes in and I'm enjoying it. I'm feeling like it's probably gonna be somewhat predictable though with the recurring themes from last season

Seems like they're going for the American Horror Story formula with the same actors playing different characters in every series The second season certainly felt more like AHS than Hill House. Cast-wise, I seem to recall Hill House had a majority white cast whereas Bly Manor was reasonably diverse, so I'm not sure how many cast members were recycled this round although I guess with each season we'll see more people repeated. I tried to see if anybody had a list, but the most I found was this: https://www.insider.com/cast-of-haunting-of-bly-manor-and-who-they-play#kate-siegel-has-been-confirmed-for-the-series-but-her-character-is-unknown-10 Which, if that's the case, only 4 actors were brought back (three in major roles, one in a smaller role). Slasher was also billed as having a repeating cast, but so far we haven't seen that many of the same faces https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slasher_(TV_series) Also Slasher kinda sucks, although s3 was fun.

It's surprisingly very different from Hill House in a lot of regards. --- (\/)(\/)|-| ... Copied to Clipboard!

This little girl is annoying. :(I found both the kids pretty annoying, which sucks because creepy/victimized children are a horror staple. They're both expected to carry the show quite a bit as well. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't understand why you'd think there would be consistency between seasons. Ghosts often don't even have consistent rules even within a single horror film, much less unrelated stories. While they're loosely inspired by separate works, I kinda assumed there'd be something of a shared universe because that's how its contemporaries have kinda worked so far (AHS being a prime example). It's a little unusual to have something resembling a series where the rules vary season by season like that. Blightzkrieg posted...

Finished episode 1
Pros: No floating cartoon man The house is spoopy Glasses man is spoopy Cons: The kids are annoying The female lead isn't a very good actor. Her delivery felt all wrong. --- Nintendo Network ID: papercups 3DS FC: 4124 5916 9925 ... Copied to Clipboard!

No floating cartoon man Oo idk, I really liked Hill House's ghosts, although "Glasses" in Bly Manor was pretty cool as well ( OhhhJa posted... Isn't it the same house from the last season? No in either sense. Within the show, season one is Hill House (which is portrayed as being in America) while the other is located in the UK. In real life, the house portrayed as Bly Manor is actually in Vancouver and the one used for Hill House is down in Atlanta. https://www.oprahmag.com/entertainment/a34316010/haunting-of-bly-manor-filming-location/ Rotpar posted... Was debating attempting AHS or TWD again. I loved AHS, although "Murder House" was a fucking slog to get through and initially turned me off the series. "Hotel" was also pretty fucking awful, at least early on. --- (\/)(\/)|-| ... Copied to Clipboard!
