Episode 121 – Trese, Reviewed

Credit: Netflix

A couple months ago, Trese debuted on Netflix. The adaptation of Kajo Baldisimo and Budjette Tan’s seminal horror comic was warmly received by local audiences, but was not without its share of critics. John, Princess and Tristan look back at the series, its themes, and what’s in store for the future.

Notes:

This episode contains spoilers for both the comic and the show.

Also, we mentioned our friend of the pod somewhere here, Mihk Vergara, who co-wrote the episodes for the show.

Did you know that Tristan has been a long-time fan of the comics?

Find out if we do care about Liza Soberano’s voice acting as Alexandra Trese.

Will there be a part two for Trese? What do you think?

This Filipino komik tells the story of Alexandra Trese, who deals with crimes of supernatural origin. The comics won the National Book Award for Best Graphic Literature in 2010.

One of us has watched the show in a different language. Can you guess who?
