That's a co-incidence: The Guardian has a very positive review up of Midnight Mass, the (sort of) horror series which has been out on Netflix for maybe 6 months, although I have only recently started watching it.
I'm 3 episodes in, and I'm not convinced. It's way, way too talky, and the dialogue is often very "stagey" - it feels unnatural to me a lot of the time. And now that I have seen the apparent explanation for the mysterious young priest appearing on the (admittedly interesting as a location) small island, I admit it wasn't exactly a normal supernatural trope, but it was so novel, I didn't know what to make of it. I'm probably going to go with reading a synopsis of the rest of the show, rather than devoting time to finding out more about what is going on.
It's a weird show, and I don't think it's very good.
