Your review of Monster was more succinct and less vitriolic than mine, and you also expressed all of my grievances perfectly. Fantastic review. The only disagreement I have is that I actually liked Eva as a character because she brought conflict to a plot that was moving nowhere (even if she was a terrible person with an awful personality.)
For the life of me I still cannot figure out why that show is ranked like #30 or something ridiculous on this site. With other shows, even shows like Naruto, I can understand the appeal because the point of them isn't to tackle major themes or philosophical ideas. With Monster, that's the whole point--so when the show fails miserably at that it boggles my mind as to how it's not rated lower.
