Reviews

The A.V. Club's Will Harris gave Castles Made of Sand a B grade, stating "As cable dramas go, Magic City still has a long way to go before it gets anywhere near the front of the pack, but while it’s trying to find its feet and – fingers crossed – actually carve an identity beyond just being the latest in the recent line of ‘60s-set drama, at least it’s worth watching."[1]

gollark: Moving all the walls around sounds annoying and tiring.
gollark: Something something status signalling, simple.
gollark: You can just plant trees if you want more of those.
gollark: I agree. Walls are just annoyingly in the way and make running cables harder.
gollark: I keep somehow mistyping my password repeatedly and locking myself out of my laptop. This is very irritating.
