In Our Blood (2023– )
1/10
Cringeworthy portrayal of important historical events
16 April 2023
As someone who was eager to tune into ABC's "In Our Blood," I have to say that I was left disappointed and underwhelmed by the show. What initially seemed like a promising concept ultimately fell short

First and foremost, the musical interludes. Oh god the musical interludes. They were so bad that I had to look away. The frequency of them was so unpredictable that it seemed like the show forgot what it was. Was it a drama? Was it a musical? Or was it just bad?

One of the biggest letdowns was the show's execution. The pacing was all over the place, with episodes feeling disjointed and poorly structured. The acting was poor and cliched, making it hard to connect with the characters on an emotional level. Some characters didn't seem to serve a purpose at all. The character Tim (the male nun) was a character that didn't add to the story at all and often took on a heavily stereotypical portrayal of a queer man. The character Michelle I also found to be of no value to the storyline either.

Honestly a really strange move by the ABC to release a show that appears to be so low value in its production.
