Izzy is the worst, couldn’t make it through the first few episodes

I enjoy podcasts of this type, whatever you like to call them. This one is pretty good. Written well, voice acting is good, interesting story. Worth listening to.

It was truly an honor listening to this one I love it so much. It literally kept me “on the edge of my seat” with every fricking episode. I can’t wait to find more scary podcasts like these. I loved the characters some I strongly disliked. Just this one was amazing! Go Listen if you haven’t yet it is so worth it !!!

This show is fantastic. A little mystery, a little stressful, a little paranormal. It has everything! I am diving in to Realm now to hopefully find something else to tide me over to pray for a next season!

The story was interesting! But I can’t believe the MC didn’t realize that a bunch of different people who you know talk normally, all suddenly asking you to “come here” quite forcefully, in weird eerie voices, is not normal! Are you kidding me ??

This PC will pull you in! It's so well written and the voice actors are great as well. The voice of Izzy is a little agitating at times, but listening is still well worth it 😉

This had me up all night, I couldn’t stop listening! My body was clenched more and more as each episode went by. Really great story! Thank you and I hope there are more like it in the future:)

One of my favorite podcasts of all time! I have burned through dozens of podcasts and only a few scratch that itch I have for horror and mystery. This one is in my top 5 favorites of all time, sitting with juggernauts of the genre like The White Vault, The Magnus Archives and the like. Truly phenomenal story and production! I am so excited for season 2!

This was such a good story! Love it! Can’t wait for season 2.

Incredibly gripping story! One of my all time favorite podcasts. So creative and creepy. Please make a season 2!

Incredible Story telling; voices; setting, characters; I mean everything! Didn’t know what to expect definitely a vibe! Didn’t want it to end!! How yall wrapped it up in the last episode was impressive when the plots connected! Praying for season two or another banger! Well done yall!! Much love!

The original score and all sound design is next level extraordinary…Wow. Katharine Seaton’s contributions are genius and immaculate. The story unfolds nicely and the plot is sound. Unfortunately, I agree with some of the other reviewers regarding Izzy. Her delivery and sound is off putting and does nothing to enhance the storyline. The part of Izzy possessed a great opportunity to creatively usher the story along but the voice acting is regrettably not up to that task. In spite of this, it is still such an entertaining and layered tale. Sincerely hoping there will be a season 2!

Had to give up 4 episodes in, which is a shame because for the most part I was enjoying the story. As many others have noted, Izzy’s voice, dialogue, acting, EVERYTHING completely brought me out of the story. Her character is so annoying and childish, she sounds like a caricature. Did they cast her sight unseen or something??

Interesting story, decent voice acting, and phenomenal sound design. Seriously, the score and interludes alone are worth listening too. They really fit well and enhance the story. Very well done! The story is evocative and told in an interesting way that captures a listener’s attention right away.

Love love love everything about this. Please make more seasons!!

The PREMISE was good. Girl moves far away from her problems, encounters other problems, etc. where this podcast started to lose me was the complete lack of set up (slowly finding out Aubrey being a medium). The acting is ok’ish. Some characters are harder to listen to than others. Then there is Izzy, completely intolerable and sadly ever present. Couldn’t get past her and only made it halfway into the story because of her.

I loved this. Aubrey was really well written and performed. I know a lot of people complain about Izzy but it makes sense given her background. Now Cody... he was well done. I HATED HIM. I thought the plot was interesting too, but I did kind of get lost with the flashbacks. Saving the best for last--Dahlia. Love her

Best series I’ve come across in some time. I finished in two days!! Sooo.. season 2?!!?!?🤞

It was amazing hooked from the first episode! When do we get more!

I liked how this started, but I couldn’t even get through the second episode because of Izzy. Absolutely grating and distracting.

I liked the story but Izzy is completely infuriating. She’s supposed to be seventeen not an immature ten.

This was a very well written, suspenseful story. Izzy was a little grating a first, but I got used to it. Would like to heard more from this creator!

I’m trying to keep listening because I need a new creepy pod and I’m enjoying the atmosphere and storyline, but JFC - the Izzy character is so grating! And given that Izzy is apparently a voice in our main character’s head, we hear a LOT of it. It’s grating not just because of the actor’s nails-on-a-chalkboard voice but because of the writing. It’s a combo of Valley Girl and toddler. “Waaaaah! But I'm sooo bored!” “Vegas, baby! Vegas!” “Ewww, that creepy old man is hitting on you. Gah-ross!” and so on. And on. In a loud shrill baby-waby voice. Will I be able to stand it and enjoy the story? Right now it’s 50/50. What a shame.

I really enjoyed this podcast! They did a great job telling the story, dialogue was very good and they did a great job of putting you in the environment. Hopefully there’s a season 2 soon!

I liked the story and it made me interested in moving to Alaska for at least a year. Sounds peaceful.... Except for the forest. Izzy was hilarious and when she went away i was feeling a little bit of the hurt too. Love the idea of Aubrey being able to hear the dead and having a dead best friend. Can't wait to her the second season.

Would easily be a 5 star if it weren’t for how insufferable Izzy is throughout the entire story, besides that the story has a decent amount of depth and some likable characters. Would recommend with a warning

I got through the second episode and, while I was interested in the story and where it was going, I was not interested enough to be willing to hear another second of Izzy. The voice, the giggle, the stupid jokes…ugh. It was so annoying that it took me right out of the story each time she spoke.

…so bad! I keep trying. But Izzy’s voice and behavior is extremely off putting and I can only get so far😭

I really tried to listen to this podcast. Can’t make it past the 4th episode. The acting is absolutely horrendous.

Uncanny Valley is hands down one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to. The story is brilliantly crafted, and the main character was so compelling that I found myself genuinely rooting for her and deeply invested in her journey. It reminded me of how people watch shows like *Friends* just to spend time with the characters — that’s how connected I felt. While I initially found Lizzy’s voice a bit off-putting (as mentioned in other reviews), by the middle of the podcast, I realized she was capturing the character’s essence perfectly. The music, sound effects, writing, and overall performances (most of the cast) were exceptional. I can easily see myself coming back to this podcast for another listen.

Really intense struggle at the end! I truly felt fear and sorrow for anyone that has ever gone through this! Ending gave me goosebumps. Amazing story and characters!

The show is great. I took off a star because Izzy is just a horrible character to listen to. Her story line is good…but the voice…it’s difficult to listen to. No 17 year old talks like that, even in the 2010’s. Really ridiculous.

Was on the edge of my seat during the second to last episode. Some of the bad reviews about some of the characters is only a testament to the amazing character development. Yes the stalker is so creepy… I was uncomfortable just listening to how crazy he was. And Izzy is just pure comic relief. Thanks for the story.

Enjoying it so far but omg the Izzy character is aweful to listen to. I’m going to try to push through despite her bc I’m really enjoying the story but it’s so hard.

I'm enjoying the show. It's fairly well written and mostly well acted and definitely better than most. The antagonist is super creepy. I'm still in the middle of it so I don't know who or what it is yet... That said, there are two characters that are so annoying I often fast-forward when they're talking. It's Doyle the protagonist's imaginary friend. I understand their value in the story, I just wish that she wasn't so manic and that he wasn't so whiney. I know that whining is an important character trait of his, but he goes on for such a long time that at some point it begins to sound like a baby crying, and I just can't handle it. And she's so annoyingly chipper that I have the same reaction. It seems like you could get the idea across that she's effervescent and optimistic and that he's a whining man-child without constantly clubbing us over the head with it.

loved it overall, plus i am originally from dayton so you get bonus points for that hehe 🖤🖤 a lot going on, but not in a way that i mind. izzy was a hard listen though i am sorry to say😬

Got hooked on the first episode and finished it in two days since I wanted to savor it. Very well written and a mysterious plot. Great character development that makes you feel for each character. Izzy is just the perfect comedy relief that is needed! Can’t wait for season 2!

This show is amazing. Absolutely in love with the character interaction and the mystery!

Tried this out…. Got hooked on the very first episode and finished it in one day. It is an amazing show with great characters and a story that makes you feel for them. Can’t wait for the second season.

I’m trying - hopefully I won’t miss anything important bc I have to skip pass Izzy’s talking parts 😩 her voice sounds so forced and aggressively cheesy

I binged the whole thing in one workday and was sad when there wasn’t anything new to listen to. Can’t wait for the next season

The story is good and mostly well done. But what’s with Izzy? She sounds like an older woman trying to sound like a younger woman, but completely overacting and inappropriately cutesy through the entire series. It really brought down the quality of the show.

Where is the next season ?

Really original spin and take on a classic sci-fi story. Well produced and acted. Great sound engineering. Can’t wait for season 2.

Great podcast, really enjoyed all of it. Can’t wait for season 2. Good job 👍🏻

The whole main plot turns into the sub plot. Drama where there should be more horror elements. All over the place. Annoying characters.

The story is interesting but Izzy needs to tone her voice down! So shrill! Finally listened to the last episodes. Says voice still grates. The end was a disappointment. Don’t make sense seemed disjointed from the mystery and suspense of the beginning.

I LOVED this series!

This whole podcast tried too hard. From all the different storyline, characters and over acting. Izzie the “friend” is annoying as sin and between the missing brother, the ability to speak to ghosts, then the monster and then the stalker. Way too many things happening. I’ve heard better acting on other podcasts.

I was HOOKED after the first episode! I can’t wait for the next season!
