Gary K @RT77201566 05/12/2024 Spoilers in the following, if you're daft enough to want to watch it. It was horribly lacking in creativity. Strangers on a Train.... AGAIN.... for goodness sake, how do producers continue to get a budget to plagiarise this film time and time again. Aside from that, the plot throws together too many unbelievable elements, from a person who's raison d'etre is providing solutions to intractable problems that complete strangers have, to a convoluted and extremely complex plot to sway a custody hearing, to having a dimwit main character who spends the best part of 5 and a half episodes doing the most stupid things possible but suddenly comes up with another convoluted plan to get revenge and solve her problem - which involves someone allowing her to trash his business, for, well, I'm not even sure what he got out of it - the show seemed to suggest it was because he was driven to be the catalyst in other people's chaos - yes, the believablitly was that stretched. Oh, and a clever, sly, manipulate villain who is always two steps ahead of her, except when he loses his cool in front of his own CCTV which he idiotically forgets to delete. It's easy to build up tension over 5+ episodes by walling in the victim with ever more inescapable situations, but it takes clever writing to have a satisfying resolution at the end of it. This show doesn't. An over use of tense music is no substitute. The professional reviewers mostly only watch the first episode, watching to the end sees the house of cards collapse in on itself.

It's worth the watch. 3.5 stars See more Niki M @RT49538820 08/25/2023 Angela and her handsome husband both drive expensive large SUVs... which is just as well because there are very large plot holes that they have to drive through. The series tries really hard to keep up the suspense with an almost overpowering soundtrack of threatening music playing over long extreme close-ups, but the show would have benefitted by being cut in half. The length requires all sorts of sub-plots which do little apart from slowing everything down. And the ending is not as satisfying as it could have been... the great big reveal almost comes across as an afterthought. Having said all that, though, it is mildly entertaining.

Another high-end, stylish property with predictable scenario going on within. Yawn. See more Coco L @Breukelen 06/20/2023 I cannot stop watching this series. It's captivating and has been a great several evenings of tv. See more Read all reviews
