FX's disappointing Kindred misses the magic in its time-traveling mystery, never managing to improve past its intriguing pilot. mhcovill reviews:
is a time-traveling series that uses a science-fiction angle to explore themes of racism, slavery, and continued prejudice in our world today. The novel, still taught in schools, continues to resonate—which is why this is seemingly the perfect opportunity to adapt the text for the screen.
For viewers, Dana is a blank slate, and her history is ill-defined. Given the nature of the show’s mystery, that was likely a conscious point made by the showrunners, but it also makes it hard to connect with her character. Two days before the horrifying scene that opened the episode, Dana is catching up with her only remaining family, her aunt and uncle, for dinner. But even then, her family makes it painfully clear that they don’t know what has been going on with Dana, either.
