Hell yes. It is sensational. They overlooked the stellar performances, which itself was absurd, but my gosh…the writing! Kate Segal’s soliloquy. That beautiful piece of writing- overlooked. Insane. #midnightmass

Midnight Mass is such a phenomenal miniseries that deserves more recognition, also all the actors but I really need to mention Sam Sloyan and Kate Siegel as the highlights of the show. You may not have an Emmy today but you are winners in our view, I will never forget this show.

Midnight Mass meant so much to me, not just as a horror fan, but as a former catholic who related to the show a lot. Thank you, Mike Flanagan and the entire cast and crew for gifting us with this!

To avoid giving away spoilers, the synopsis for “Midnight Mass” simply reads: “The arrival of a charismatic priest brings miracles, mysteries and renewed religious fervour to a dying town.” The series is most definitely worth a watch and currently available to stream on Netflix.
