- The Gutter MonkeyApril 24, 2025A very bold, fascinating, and ambitious show that was sadly cancelled before it could answer its many mysteries.
- Callum7d ago⭐⭐½ (out of 5) Raised by Wolves (U.S.) – Bleak Futures and False Expectations When I saw Raised by Wolves pop up, I expected another American remake of the brilliant, chaotic British sitcom — only sunnier and sugar-coated. What I got instead was a brooding sci-fi opera about android parents, religious zealotry, and the ruins of a post-war planet that may or may not still resemble Earth. It’s not bad, exactly — just nothing like what I was ready for. The series starts strong, with its first episodes shaped under Ridley Scott’s watchful eye, promising Alien-level atmosphere and tension. But somewhere after take-off, it drifts — long silences, heavy symbolism, and a constant fog of despair. The idea of androids raising humanity’s last children should feel profound, yet it ends up feeling clinical. The “faith versus science” struggle that drives the plot might be thought-provoking, but in practice, it’s just exhausting. Visually stunning but emotionally distant, this Raised by Wolves is a fascinating misfire — ambitious, bleak, and occasionally brilliant, but far too joyless to revisit. Pairing: A glass of cold black coffee — beautiful in colour, bitter in taste, and guaranteed to keep you awake… even if the show didn’t.
