Is SMOKE The Most Disappointing Series of the Year? | Apple TV+ Review

In this video, I review Smoke, the new mystery-thriller series from Dennis Lehane — the acclaimed writer behind Black Bird and Mystic River. With Taron Egerton leading a strong cast and an unsettling atmosphere promised in the trailer, I went in with high expectations… but unfortunately, Smoke left me more frustrated than thrilled. Despite some standout performances — especially from Egerton and a chilling supporting turn by Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine — Smoke struggles to maintain tension. The central mystery is oddly revealed way too early, leaving the rest of the show feeling aimless and bloated. Add in tonally inconsistent shifts, unlikable characters, and a finale that completely goes off the rails into borderline parody, and you've got one of 2025’s most disappointing TV misfires. In this spoiler-free Smoke review, I break down why this series didn’t work for me, what redeeming elements kept me watching, and why I think this might have worked better as a feature-length film instead of a nine-episode slog. If you're wondering whether Smoke is worth watching — or if this is a rare miss for Dennis Lehane — this video is for you.
