As summertime smarmy yarns go, American Gothic holds promise.
Whodunit? After screening the first two episodes, I have no idea. But I'm engaged enough to keep watching to find out.
The TV equivalent of a murder-mystery novel, the kind you can read in between swims and nods on the beach. You know it’s going to be predictable, illogical, and a little trashy, and you don’t mind if the book jacket gets wet or torn, and if the book got stolen you’d forget about it almost instantly, but still, you kind of want to find out who done it.
After a convincing opening episode, American Gothic turns soapier and more florid in Episode 2.
Gothic is either afraid of being too gothic or just doesn't know what gothic is. [24 Jun 2016, p.53]
This American Gothic remains strictly paint-by-numbers.
American Gothic is about a bunch of good actors who got suckered into a really bad series.
