With an array of flashy, half-formed ideas and thin characterizations, Clickbait is more akin to its namesake than the deeper show it aspires to be. Read critic reviews

I found this difficult to get through. The characters didn't act rationally. The police didn't act according to basic codes or rules. The end was bizarre, the culprit, honestly, made no sense to me. Okay, the culprit is lonely, and needs some entertainment in their life, but does that constitute going to the lengths that they went to, playing with peoples emotions, lives and mental well-being? There were also a lot of unbelievable points of this show, including the fact that Ethan WASN'T catfished is so farfetched. Emma lying, disappearing and then coming clean to a teenager. Everything Pia did is really unrealistic. Simon's actions as well. (I'm trying not to spoil the show, lol). All in all, skip this series . Watch something that will actually get you thinking and keep you on the edge of your seat, this is really hard to get through, the show itself, is exactly what the title of the show instigates, simply put, it's clickbait.

This show totally exceeded my expectations! I was expecting it to be totally formulaic and predictable but it wasn't, and there was a great twist at then end.
-
This series is very unpredictable because the main culprit is really out of sight. They just introduce the suspect like "hey I'm the suspect and this is my story. The end."
-
Overall, it was a pretty good show. However, I didn't like the way it ended. I didn't like how they didn't go through the funeral with us or how they didn't give us an update on Ronshan & Pia's relationship after the case closed, or an update on the relationship between Ethan and Allison, or if Sophie and the boys ended up moving or what happened to Matt after the complaint was filed against him. There were so many cliffhangers, I am not sure if there will be a season 2 but if so, I hope they answer all of these hangers.

Немного держит в напряге! Мне понравилось!

Don't pass on this series. Reviews are wrong. I thought the plot was thrilling and it kept me guessing and interested. The acting was excellent also. Yes, I concede the final episode was out of left field but very believable. An education on the dangers of social media.
-
Yeah. The critics' synopsis is actually spot on, here. Aspirational, but fails to deliver… Unfortunately forgettable, as there are moments that show real promise
-
I deliberately write this before the last episode (without knowing the ending), which some have written is terrible. I'm enjoying the series a lot. Much more depth than I thought at first. Good acting. Relevant focus on online dating, identity theft, faked images, and such things. Pia (the sister) is engaging. As are the sons. Only the cop Roshan is a bit pathetic: at first I thought he would be the 'good guy' but he really tails off. Better than the average crime series. A couple of good twists in the plot line, but, as I said, I don't know the ending yet.
-
The first few episodes promised to engage me—a fractured family dynamic, fraught characters and a dead brother's secret double life. But nothing developed. The characters actually became less interesting over time and the ending was ludicrous and, somehow also, deeply ageist and misogynistic. I feel like Midsommer Murders had a one night stand with Noah Baumbach, got pregnant and decided to terminate. Yeah, if you can imagine a universe in which an abortion could become a T.V. series, this is it.

This show was one of the stupidest shows I have wasted my time on in a long time. The brothers/sisters relationships in this show were just creepy weird, and not one character was worth rooting for. The story was complete with red neck white hick flat earthers and white trailer trash - in Oakland, Ca, family constantly interfering with a police investigation, a giant pack of reporters outside a house 24/7 for days on end even after the issue was resolved like a major celebrity lived there, high school online genius hackers, the list goes on. HORRIBLE dialogue, like seriously bad, LOL when it was supposed to be serious because it was so bad. The list goes on, but I think you get the idea.
