The Outsider might immediately appear to be just another true-crime series that is cashing in on the popular trend, offering a complex and captivating enigma, but what makes it unlike any of its peers is its tragically human characters and the embrace of the idea that there could be more to the known world than what we've been led to believe, making the series thrilling, disturbing, and addictive.

oh snap

 

[BS ISF]

Watched the first episode was slow but ok setting up the season. Started the 2nd and wasn't able to finish it so will go back and restart. I hope it picks up.

 

[Kensington]

Will be watching tonight. Stoked, looks really good

 

[IDAFC21]

Watched both episodes last night. Definitely a slow start, but thats just the nature of this show. I had to rewatch the last 15 minutes of the 2nd episode because I realized i had completely spaced out.

 

[Mook]

Hmm, these arent the glowing first reviews I was expecting. I'll start this either tonight or tomorrow.

 

[Kensington]

Personally, I was really happy. Definitely the style of show I like. Dark and brooding, and it feels like it’s building suspense. Will definitely be watching episode to episode

 

[Mook]

I'll watch em tomorrow and report back.

 

[BS ISF]

Watched the 2nd episode and shit got real quickly, without spoilers. It is dark and definitely building suspense. I'm hooked.

 

[Mook]

Dude, first episode was FANTASTIC. I'm debating watching episode 2 but I kind of want to savor this show and let it burn slowly.

 

[Mook]

Finished episode 2. I am fucking HOOKED.

 

[Mr Baytchos]

Watched both episodes last night. I love it so far.

 

[greasy]

This show is just amazing. I so wish I could binge this because I hate when the episode is over, but it’s better that they are released weekly.

The story line is gripping, and the show just builds with suspense. The mystery element of who/what the outsider is keeps me glued! The did episodes 1 & 2 last week, watched the 3rd last night, and when it ended I was sad.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!

Spoiler

Any thoughts on the doppelgänger? I’m curious if it can shift into multiple people in short order and if so, what other characters has it represented? The mall security guy from House of Cards is surely on my radar.

 

[Mr Baytchos]

Spoiler

I'm thinking shapeshifter or like a parasite that needs a host. Seems to have the cop. And the inky shit on the back of the neck. I agree the mall security cop knowing something.

 

[greasy]

Spoiler

It's weird because it is almost like he can manifest in physical form and/or only be seen by certain people. The daughter of Bateman sees him, but it is almost as he is invisible. Then you see the creepy hooded figure with the crazy/hidden face.

The cop is definitely infected with some shit and the outsider is manipulating control with excruciating pain.

 

[Mook]

Use the spoiler tags, clown babies. I had it fixed months ago for that reason lol.

 

[Mook]

Also, I need to watch the 3rd episode this afternoon inbetween calls.

 

[Kensington]

This show is so good...definitely some interesting theories about what everything going on could be...

 

[greasy]

Use the spoiler tags, clown babies. I had it fixed months ago for that reason lol.

instructions please, never used the spoiler function?

 

[Kensington]

It’s the same as the old spoiler tag
