The Bridge Ep 1.05 ‘The Beast’ sees the show regaining its focus
At the end of my review of ‘Maria of the Desert’, I suggested that The Bridge would become a lot more interesting once it started moving its pieces around, slowly shining some light on the vague connective tissues between story lines. ‘The Beast’ accomplishes this with flair, easily the most enjoyable episode of the series to date. It’s still rough around the edges, but after the uneven quality of ‘Maria of the Desert’, ‘The Beast’ gets things back on track where they belong.
