This show is OK but it's a bit much in the end. Some of the acting work isn't quite top notch and there's so many twists, on top of twists on top of other twists, so they are not all expected which I like but at a point it's all just a bit too much and too contrived. I will try it again though if it comes back.

Michael C. Hall with the worst English accent since Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins. This does not bode well. Everything has been thrown into this leftover soup of a story. No spoilers suffice to say no cliche is left out. The acting is wooden. I had splinters after the first few episodes. I stuck with it. It did improve towards the conclusion. Life's too short. There are so many good things on Netflix. This isn't one of them. Avoid.

Excellent casting and outstanding performances from all the cast is just the tip. I loved the dialog, the characters and the constant twists and twirls of the story. Amazing writing overall. Binge watched it in a day. If you like a good mystery drama you shouldn't miss this.-- Edit: Unfortunately I have to deduct one star from my initial review because of the final unnecessary and completely illogical reveal. The last episode should have ended 10 minutes before the actual credits.

I watched it all. Some episodes were great and had you looking forward to the next, others dragged on. All in all, it was just above average but I do feel the acting was good, and I enjoyed the setting. There are a lot of plots and subplots running around and as ever, everyone seems to be connected in some way. The final reveal just wasn't enough to convince me the whole plot was worth it, however. As a Brit with an accent similar to Michael C Hall, can I just say his accent was EXCELLENT! Genuinely, I have never heard an American actor do it better and I have seen many films and countless series. Overall quite gripping in parts if you like British murder mysteries but not one of the best of its kind in the genre- too many unbelievable occurrences.
