swilliky A hotel room can be so much more than just a place to spend the night. It can be a home, a workplace, a church, bomb-making factory or a fighting ring, and in Jay and Mark Duplass's new HBO series, these possibilities are explored in twelve thirty-minute episodes. The series goes from religious to horror to dramatic to romantic and I never knew what to expect when starting each episode. The first episode is a horror of sorts when a young woman Meg (Melonie Diaz) arrives at Room 104 to babysit an odd boy who seems to have a split personality. In the second a pizza boy Jarod (Clark Duke) gets trapped in a couple's strange game as Scott (James Van Der Beek) and Jennifer (Davie-Blue) have other plans than just eating, but the episode concludes with a surprising twist. The third episode, The Knockadoo, sees a woman Deborah (Sameerah Luqmaan-Harris) attends a strange ritual for a cult religion performed by a priest Samuel (Orlando Jones) including videos of a man known as The Father (Tony Todd). The next episode has a man Daniel (Jay Duplass) cope with guilt as he's visited by the ghost of his best friend Patrick (Will Tranfo) who drowned while they were out swimming years ago. The fifth episode, one of my favorite, The Internet shows the complex nature of a young man Anish (Karan Soni) trying to explain to his mother over the phone how to send a document of his novel by email. This anxiety-inducing episode also has a surprise ending that is as shocking as it is emotional.

huntgod I've given this way more chances than I should, if it were a longer format I would have bailed by episode 3, but at 30 minutes I gave it a few more chances.Contrived and obvious plots, old trite ideas, just terrible, I don't mind episodic TV, Twilight Zone was brilliant and I adore Black Mirror, but this just fails on every level and as mentioned by another review, it really does, at times, feel like you are watching the submissions for a film class at a local community college.Makes me really look forward to the new season of Black Mirror though :-P

Movie-Inspector Just watched the first episode of the Room 104. Well, the production quality is of okay TV-scale and even the acting is good but the story told is just too unconventional conventional. Nothing surprising happens, everything a viewer with some experience and intelligence can predict easy, so why should one watch!? With a new show you throw everything you got into the first episode if that's all you got, well, you won't get another season. I guess, okay if it is raining outside and you got nothing else to do.

o o The first episode as indicator it was a disaster! It not professional it's childish and it looks more like a high school film then a major production. But then again HBO so who really cares. This is not for everybody, but then again this isn't much of anything entertainment . How did this show get on Air is beyond many peoples reasoning of thought. But then again in this age where people don't pay to watch the shows but get it free on the Internet..... you get what you pay for nothing. They don't care they just come here comment like they really paid for this but they never do. This is just a terrible version of Albert Hitchcock's decades old TV series! They try to rip off his series much as possible. But the problem is you can't because.....Albert Hitchcock's was great! This is just the high school Movie class laughable content of all of his classic. So don't put much thought into watching this garbage. HBO will Produce anything. I wish people stop writing 3000+ words reviews. Its doesn't mean the movie is better or etc. Its mean people ASSUME writing a lot means its believable better. But the reality is LESS IS MORE!
