The stakes couldn't be higher, but Big Sky nonetheless has trouble making its storylines feel as urgent as they truly are because its characters rarely feel as human as they need to in order for them to land.
Despite some of the more ridiculous parts of Big Sky-or maybe because of them-the show is genuinely worth investigating based on its first two episodes.
Big Sky starts out feeling like another quirky drama before morphing into something much darker, which turns out to be pretty surprising and compelling once you get past the clunky and unpleasant task of setting it all up.
The first episode of Big Sky, directed by Paul McGuigan, is a voyeuristic slasher drama that seems determined to not just embrace but pander to all of the worst instincts of the genre.
Curveballs abound. The neon lights are flashing. The pages are turning. Where will this end up? Who knows, but with this excellent cast, sharp writing, and evocative locale, "Big Sky" does an even better job of making us want to know.
