The Boroughs Review: The recently released science fiction show The Boroughs on Netflix. The show is produced by the makers of Stranger Things. But is this series as interesting as Stranger Things? Let’s know the answer.
There is an abundance of science fiction shows on Netflix. A new show has been added to this list. The name of the show is Boros. Boros is produced by the Duffer Brothers, who produced Stranger Things. Stranger Things is considered one of the best science fiction shows on Netflix. But did Borrows do as well as Stranger Things? The answer is no. I started this serial thinking something interesting like The Stranger Things had come out. The first episode of the series also builds interest towards the series, but as the story progresses, the series seems slow and boring.
What is the plot of Boros?
Before knowing whether the series is good, bad or okay, let’s know what is the plot of the series? So the story is about a town called The Boroughs where only retired people live. These retirees are happy in their own world away from their children and family. The bourse has every facility for these people. The boroughs also have their own hospital where these retirees are admitted if required. But nothing is normal in this hospital. The secret of Boros is hidden in this hospital.
What secret is hidden in Boros?
Everything is going as usual in Boros when a man named Sam Kapoor comes to drop off his daughter there. Sam Cooper is a man who is deeply saddened by the death of his wife. Due to this he has become quite stubborn. He doesn’t even want to live in Boros. But then something happens that he agrees to stay in Boros. He also makes a friend in Boros, but his sudden death reveals the horrifying truth about Boros to Sam. To know the scary truth about Boros, you have to watch the series.
Should I watch the show or not?
Now let’s know how Boros is? If you go into Boros with Stranger Things-like expectations, you’ll be disappointed. The first episode of the show looks interesting. In the first few minutes of the first episode, there is a powerful scene that will increase your interest in the show. After watching the first episode, you will feel that this serial is very watchable, but as soon as the second episode comes, the show starts to get a bit boring. The story of the show doesn’t seem that strong to you. It can be said that Boros is not the best show on Netflix, the show is average. If you watch it without comparing it to Stranger Things, you might find the show worth watching.

How is the climax of the show?
In Stranger Things, the kids fight Vakana to save their city. So the ancients have a monster here. Stranger Things and Boros have the same concept, only there are monsters and a team to fight those monsters. If you think the whole Stranger Things formula is used here, it’s not. If that was the case, the show would probably be interesting. Also, if we talk about the climax of the show, it seems that the makers have tried to end the show in a hurry. The climax of the show looks quite rushed.
