The Bedlam Heights apartment block is strangely full of tenants, strange because it's the site of a former mental asylum. It's no surprise, then, that ghosts lurk in the shadows, haunting the flatmates and anyone else who stumbles upon the building's former residents. The tenants can thank their landlord, Warren Bettany, for Bedlam's current state. Bettany renovated the structure into a modern block of flats, and he also took after his dad -- the last in a long line of Bettanys to have run the psychiatric hospital -- in believing that the asylum's brutal and inhuman methods were justified. Warren's attempts, then, to restore Bedlam Heights to prominence may come with a heavy price.

Bedlam's got promise but boy, can it be rough-going sometimes. Go to Full Review

There are B-movie elements of the soap opera that work but the whole thing plays like a silly straight-to-DVD horror film chopped up into six weekly installments. Go to Full Review

There's a point where being mysterious and vague becomes odd and confusing, and Bedlam's season finale hop, skipped and jumped right over that point. Go to Full Review

[The next season is] going to have to do something a little differently, otherwise it's likely to disappear all too quickly. Just like a ghost. Go to Full Review

02/17/2020 I loved the show, but the finale of season was awful. It resolved nothing, and while you were waiting for some big reveal it ended with a whimper with no bang! Theo James was great in his role..all the actors were great; however, that ending made me wish I didn't waste my time watching the series. Very disappointing. See more Read all reviews
