You Wont Believe What Happens When You Visit Phoenix Auto Wrecking

‘Clickbait’: You won’t BELIEVE what happens in Netflix mystery (because it’s ridiculous) A seemingly nice guy is kidnapped and accused of crimes online in preposterous series with a social media theme.

With binge-watching, you click on the first episode of “The Mare of Easttown” or “Bridgerton” or “Euphoria” or “The Queen’s Gambit” and you’re instantly drawn in by the production values, the quality of the writing, the excellence of the performances — and you’re rarely disappointed by the entire journey.

Cringe-watching is when try out a series and it’s filled with implausible plot turns and soap opera cliffhangers from the jump — but you can’t help it, you have to see this thing through. (Hello, “Sex/Life” and “You” and “Nine Perfect Strangers.”) Sometimes you get a legit wine-and-popcorn, guilty-pleasure satisfaction from these shows. Sometimes not.

Here's The Faith In The 'american Sniper' You Won't See In The Film

Despite a gimmicky but admittedly attention-getting opening hook, some stylishly rendered visuals and the best efforts of the talented cast, this is the kind of show that grows increasingly desperate to hold our interest until the mystery is solved — and then throws a cold towel in our face by revealing a major character made an absolute howler of a decision at a pivotal moment in the story, a decision so ridiculous it undercuts everything we’ve seen until that moment. You’ll want to hurl the remote across the room, but don’t do that because you might break it.

In the opening chapter of the eight-part series, handsome family man and good guy Nick Brewer (Adrian Grenier) and his lovely and sweet wife Sophie (Betty Gabriel), along with their two teenage sons Ethan (Cameron Engels) and Kai (Jaylin Brewer), are celebrating the birthday of Nick’s mom at the Brewer home when Nick’s younger sister Pia (Zoe Kazan) makes a mess of things by showing up late, tipsy and confrontational. Fed up with years of Pia’s antics, Nick kicks her out of the house and says he wants her out of his life.

The next morning, Nick goes missing — and he goes viral. Battered and bruised, he appears in an online video, holding up handwritten signs that say, “I ABUSE WOMEN” and “AT 5 MILLION VIEWS I DIE.” (In a later video, he holds up a sign saying, “I KILLED A WOMAN.”) Is it some sort of sick prank? A Deep Fake Video?

Turns out Nick didn’t show up for his job as a physical therapist for a college women’s volleyball team in Oakland, and nobody has heard from him since he left a late-night message for Pia apologizing for his outburst and telling her they need to talk. Is it possible Nick really did hurt women and actually committed murder? Is this some sort of elaborate revenge plot by a crazed stalker? There’s no evidence of Nick straying from his marriage or hurting anyone, let alone committing murder — or is there?

It’s an intriguing setup, and we get the expected conversations about the sometimes-toxic nature of the Internet, as the views start piling up and many commenters express their certainty Nick is guilty and should burn for his crimes. There’s even a plot involving a tracking app that allows for hundreds of citizen detectives to stake out various patches of land in Oakland and then ping that area if they don’t find anything, thus narrowing the search for Nick.

Each episode of “Clickbait” follows the developing mystery from a different viewpoint. “The Detective” focuses on Roshan Amir (Phoenix Raei), a cop who becomes close with the Brewer family, even as he faces his own domestic strife. In the “Wife, ” we learn Sophie’s relationship with Nick was far from perfect. “The Mistress” introduces one Emma Beesley, who claims she was in love with Nick, while “The Reporter” is mostly about a tabloid “journalist” (Abraham Lim) who doesn’t think twice about breaking the law if it means he’ll get the scoop that breaks this case wide open.

You Won't Believe How Hard They Once Worked To Make Professional Wrestling 'real'

It’s an interesting approach, with some storylines more intriguing than others — and some quickly falling by wayside in red-herring fashion. At least a half-dozen possible suspects are introduced, as it appears Nick had multiple affairs under assumed names via various online dating apps. Meanwhile, nearly every time there’s a sensational development and the police rush to a possible crime scene, the cops allow the hysterical and pesky Pia to accompany them, which would NOT happen in anything approaching the real world.

“Clickbait” has a suitably noir-ish look and a few neat wrinkles, but far too often, we branch out and fall down too many different rabbit holes. There’s an abundance of characters but many of them are thinly drawn or pop up out of nowhere in arbitrary fashion just to advance the storyline. The cast turns in solid work and we appreciate the ambition and scope and timeliness of the subject matter, but the payoff is delivered off in currency that’s pure counterfeit.

The odd thing about the Fly Geyser is that it was created from human activity. The property owners drilled for water to turn the area into farmland, but they hit geothermal boiling water. Then they tried to harness the hot water for energy, but it was not hot enough. Long story short, over the years, the geyser formed a calcium carbonate cone and now attracts people from all over to view this otherworldly formation.

A trip to this unique UNESCO World Heritage Site in southwest Turkey will leave you feeling like you stepped into an arctic paradise. At first glance, the pools appear like icy ponds. The waters, however, are the perfect temperature for a relaxing thermal mineral bath. This “Cotton Palace” was created from springs in a cliff almost 600 feet high and the calcite-laden waters have created an unbelievable landscape.

Insane Planets You Won't Believe Exist

Standing in one of the slots in Antelope Canyon will make you think that you have landed on Mars. Nope. This 660-foot-long sandstone formation in Upper Antelope Canyon is on Navajo land. Wind and water have gently carved the sandstone and its curves, colors and shapes are so unique you will spend most of your time trying to figure out how to get the perfect shot of this astonishing place. Plan ahead, though. You must hire a guide to take you to the canyon and your time there is limited to one hour.

If you want to experience one of the most remarkable vistas on Earth, then you need to check out Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni — the world’s largest salt flat. The 4, 000 square miles of vastness was left behind by prehistoric lakes that evaporated eons ago. During the rainy season (December–April), nearby lakes overflow and create an amazing mirror effect. How much salt is mined from the lakes? Enough to build a hotel made entirely of salt.

If you are up for an out-of-this-world adventure, then welcome to the “Door to Hell.” Well, technically this unnerving site is called the Darvaza gas crater. This volcanic-looking crater can be seen for miles, and it was created by a man-made accident. In 1971, the Soviets were drilling for natural gas and punched a hole into a huge underground natural gas cavern. The rig fell in and released massive amounts of natural gas. They set the hole on fire hoping that it would burn itself out, but here we are, nearly 50 years later, and people are still coming from miles around to camp in the wild Karakum Desert and stare into the Door to Hell.

If you didn’t know better, you would think you were walking among a field of giant chocolate kisses. The famed Chocolate Hills of Bohol are something that has puzzled geologists for years. There are 1, 268 cone-shaped mounds spread over more than 20 square miles, varying in size from 100 to 400 feet high. The best way to see the hills is by heading to Sagbayan Peak, a mountaintop resort and recreation center that has a viewing deck that boasts a 360° view of the hills and the distant sea. Spoiler alert! The hills only look like chocolate in the dry season (November–March) when the grass turns brown.
