OMG was that really the episode title?? 🤣🤣

The cheap shiny blue dress, dimestore jewelry and the spider legs eyelashes waala eye makeup was dazzling? Her entire look screamed bargain-bin Princess Jasmine Halloween costume 😆

Did you really fail for this silly tilak which is not even the first or the second tilak on the show? 😆

Your review was funny but you didn't mention that the episode is called "Akshara's Dazzling Makeover" 😆 It would have put chaar chaand on your review

Ok peeps, I was going to sacrifice myself again for your collective benefit but I was spared at the last minute through the divine intervention of the Hulu Gods. No episode uploaded today Main bacch gayi!

If you guys have watched, please share the glorious ridiculousness!😆

Was third time a charm for JIJAJI or did Arohi commence her villain origin story and stop the tilak? Inquiring minds want to know!

Pretty sure she's gonna ask for shagun or something.

Anyway, love the outfits tho and the sisters bonding. The eyebrows one was too cute

I had your exact experience - really enjoyed Midnight Mass but disliked his adaptations of Hill House and Bly Manor (based on the classic novel The Turn of the Screw). Have you read the novels? For me the issue was he ruined the essence of both books…

Really?

Hill House is one the best horror story I've ever seen. Sure it diverts from the main book but it's better than the book, and honestly, i read the book, the easter eggs and the way Mike Flanagan has connected them all is commendable.

The script, the story, and the acting by both the adults and the kids are amazing. One of the best shows hands down and my top favourite, because there's no story so well written as this one for me.

Yeah that's what I figured - Arohi barring the way is a fake-out.

I found those 'sisterly' scenes a bit insincere, y'know - like Akshara is trying as always to make Arohi into the sister she always wanted and being super bubbly. And Arohi is clearly still simmering inside, she definitely cast some shade with her comment about how Akshara should just pretend to be the saali too.

I don't know, maybe I've become just too cynical about this show in general😆

Also i didn't like Akshara's look at all - it looked cheap and costumy to me.

OMG are we... disagreeing?
That's it! Dueling 'Report' buttons at dawn, Roch! The gauntlet has been thrown down! 🤣

Lmao, I liked them. And I've always loved the siblings bond and the cute bickering between them. And kinda cute outfits too.

Maybe you are too cynical. It does happen. For me too, I watched the earlier episodes which I had skipped because it was too stupid but I laughed at them now and even enjoyed the scenes.

SPOILERS for Eka or anyone wanting to read/watch the HIll House show or novel

I hated the sappy overtones that Flanagan added to the show at the end with all the spirit people cosying up to each other (he did the same for Bly Manor). I love the book, it's the best haunted house story I've read. What I liked about the book was that, at the end, you just knew the loneliness Elinor fought in life was now going to last an eternity for her. Whether Hill House was haunted or not before, now it definitely was by her. It's a dark ending but hey, that's why I read horror novels. I thought Flanagan's series was okay as a standalone but his interpretation was definitely not the same as Shirley Jackson's - I just liked hers better y'know?

Hey @Visions - I have this distinct recollection of you, I and Bakwaspolice discussing the Harry Potterverse in one of our earlier chat threads or maybe on the mothership.

How'd that happen if you don't read novels or watch movies? 😆

Agree to disagree here.

Also, it's a series adaption on Netflix. Pretty sure the original story wouldn't have garnered the praise it has gotten now.

And his interpretation was a lot more interesting and better for me than the original author.

Plus the way he's connected the book with the series.

Like: Eleanor - Nellie

Eleanor's past story: Olivia Crain's story

The doctor who calls them: Nellie's doctor in the show

Theo's childhood story: Same here too

Eleanor Vance: Nellie's husband's surname is Vance so she becomes Eleanor Vance

_

Plus moreover, there are so many detailed character analysis for each siblings. Where the five of them represent five stages of grief, the bond between the twins, the sympathy for their mother, and the secrets of the house. Everything about that tv series is commendable and worth watching again and again.

In fact, the more you watch it, the more you love it.

I've already watched it twice and I'm gonna binge again for the third time now haha.

P.s. hindi dubbing is also good.
