Reviews

This has been a fantastic show! Twenty minutes flies by as you watch individuals come to seek out their hearts desire by making deals with a creature that could as likely be an angel as a devil.

So there is an 8.4 rating and the show was cancelled?

I don't generally bwrite reviews. I certainly had to work hard to form a set of thoughts to do this justice.

SPOILER ALERTEach episode is maybe 3 minutes long then the credits roll and the logos are displayed. After that the next episode comes up.

1st thing is the 1 -2 star reviews didn't stay with it long enough to see the pretext it works from. I can understand why.

'The Booth At The End' has a lot of things going for it. It has an interesting and kind of novel premise about a guy who sits in a restaurant and "provides opportunities" for people.

I can't fathom the 8+ rating on this. It's a low budget production with a junior college patina.

I never thought a show with only one location would be this interesting. The main character, The Man, is wonderfully acted by Xander Berkeley.

If the title cards are "Tarantino-inspired" then who did Tarantino rip them off from, its generally understood that cinema didn't begin with Tarantino and in fact most of his work really hits the tone of pastiche. If I had to say the title cards or even location concept were inspired by anyone I would have to say it was Jim Jarmusch rather than Tarantino.
