Girl from Nowhere the Reset Episode 1 Reactions
I did not have high hopes going into this, as i have not seen great acting from Becky Armstrong before. Unfortunately this time is no different. And the concept seems to have changed in a direction that cheapens the plot.

To be fair, nothing tops the first season, but I appreciate in this premier episode they kinda pull back on the craziness of the second season. However the plot is very linear with the hurt people, hurt people ideology. The acting was really solid, Sky was a very compelling character and until the end I was expecting to be darker. Sam was able to give complexity with somewhat stereotypical bullied character.Bank was also a villain, from anger to fear, you can really feel in his emotions.Becky is a good Nanno with her menacing expressions. Probably I want more mystery in her actions.

As an opener episode for a series that is much loved and critically acclaimed you think the writers would make the script actually good. They had very high shoes to fill and unfortunately they didn't they chose clean and simple over messy and chaotic. I know alot of people will give the show flame for the mc being recasted but i want remind everyone kitty needs to recuperate and rest she was an incredible Nanno and it's gonna be very hard for anyone to replace her but just give Becky a chance. I know this is not a direct continuation of the show but a new imagined universe with Nanno still being an entity but with different morals but i feel this Nanno lacks to her predecessor. She dosent feel like an evil threat and force but like a Temu Justice seeker. The original Nanno gave her enemies severe emotional breakdown through various ways she infiltrated herself into their lives and seekes chaos and ruin from within ,this one just shows up and does what the victim tells her to why? she isn't a follower she's supposed to be in command a matryar of no morals and principles when it came to vengeance instead she allowed the bullies to walk scott free because the victim didn't want to be a bad person? that's where our original Nanno would have never down she still would have punished them regardless of sentiments she isn't just 1 dimensionally good she is morally grey. This Nanno feels like she is just a peace keeper. Well it's just 1 episode and i couldnt say it was bad entirely the visuals where nice and the acting was okay it just doesn't compare to the original which I loved but be free to check it out and form an opinion of your own remember all art is subjective

I understand they were most likely going for a different style but I wish they kept Becky's makeup simple and natural. I don't remember the original GFN being this much of a horror genre but I love this style alot. This was a nice introduction episode for Nanno. I really enjoyed it. Sky and Jom acted well too and they're good looking actors.
