Season 6
Line of Duty
Unnecessarily dense storytelling and an oversaturation of acronyms gives the sense that this sturdy procedural may be overextending itself, but Kelly Macdonald reports in for duty to provide some fresh blood and intrigue.

Oct 03, 2022This is such a great series. If you like great cop shows, you'll want to see it.
-
Nov 05, 2021Line of Duty is probably my favourite UK TV production of all time. Great acting and writing. One of the few TV series that wasn't predictable and there were lots of twists and turns I didn't expect.
-
Oct 13, 2021This is a great show through all 6 seasons. I wish it would continue.
-
Sep 08, 2021Without a doubt, the best police-drama out there. An outstanding show, intricate in detail. Gripping, thrilling, clever. Brilliant!
-
Sep 04, 2021This season seems to have referred to every season that preceded it. I would need a map of all the characters and their relationships and plots to really understand it all. It's still a good show but I hope next season they make the plot line more self-contained, so we don't have to reflect on the minute details of what happened years ago in seasons 1-5! On the bright side, if you feel like binging six seasons of a great show, then you might be able to actually follow season six without issue.

Aug 08, 2021Loved Kelly MacDonald's portrayal.
-
Jul 30, 2021Great acting and high suspense. Excellent show, sorry to see it end.
-
Jul 16, 2021Sad to see it go. What a great series!
-
Jun 16, 2021Season 6 - overly complicated plots and characters in order to extend the "H" story line. Seasons 3 and 4 are 5 stars and then we go down a rabbit hole where the characters are caricatures.

Jun 01, 2021Spins its wheels a little
