ElisabethMoss turns in another stunning performance in ShiningGirls, Apple TV+'s creepy and intriguing new sci-fi mystery series.
Shining Girls may look and move like a traditional serial killer drama, but it’s far from just another straightforward mystery series. The new Apple TV+ original centers on Kirby Mazrachi , a woman who survived an attack by the show’s mysterious serial killer, as she sets out to finally solve the mystery behind the event that nearly killed her.
Mystery before clarity If that all sounds a bit mysterious, that’s because it is. Make no mistake: There’s a sci-fi story at the center of Shining Girls, but the series is in no rush to reveal the specifics of it. Instead, the show opts in its early episodes to fully inhabit the fractured, disoriented perspective of Moss’ Kirby, and it often chooses to explain key pieces of its mystery only when Kirby figures them out herself.
Cat and mouse Kirby and Dan’s scenes together supply Shining Girls with many of its best moments, and Moura and Moss make for a truly memorable screen duo. Both actors are asked to play characters who are messy in their own unique and distinct ways, but the empathy that Kirby and Dan feel toward each other makes their relationship immediately captivating to watch. In several instances, the two even end up creating a dynamic similar to the one shared by Robert Downey Jr.
A worthwhile journey Throughout Shining Girls’ eight episodes, Bell plays Harper as an old-fashioned gentleman whose soft voice and boyish smirk just barely mask his nefarious intentions. He’s a mysterious figure when he’s first introduced in the show, but he doesn’t grow any less intimidating once more is revealed about him.
