Our Take On The Madness Trailer
The Teaser Creates Intrigue
Watchingthis teaser forThe Madness, I am immediately intrigued by how little it gives away.The trailer provokes far more questions than answers, as we wonder how Domingo’s character got into this situation, and who was murdered. It will be interesting, then, to see how this mystery can play out in the actual show. The series is slated to be eight episodes on Netflix, so they will have time to cover a lot of ground and explore twists and turns.
