This started out really solid but very quickly went downhill in the second half 🤦🏻♀️ The concept was great and had solid bones but the execution was just really lacking. By the second half, I wasn’t rooting for Sean & Crest and I didn’t feel like I had any stakes in the story. I did love the body positivity and the queer rep! I also always want more mermaid stories so I did love that, I just wanted more of that world, I think. Don’t even get me started on the third act drama 🤦🏻♀️ it was all unnecessary and 100% preventable. Overall, there were aspects I enjoyed but this isn’t one isn’t one that I’d ever want to revisit.
