This drama takes viewers into the housing estates of East London. There is tension between the drug gangs that operate almost openly and those who strive to live honest lives against the odds in the crime-riddled area. That tension is explored through the interlocking stories of 20-something drug dealer Dushane, who is determined to become the area's Top Boy, and good-natured but vulnerable teenager Ra'Nell, who is forced to grow up quickly following his mother's breakdown and enforced absence. The program combines elements of a tense gangster thriller with subtle social realism, some tenderness, innocence and humor.

4/5
As ever, Top Boy transcends gang matters to consider its wider impact and contexts. Go to Full Review Wambui Waithaka Shadow and Act 10/22/2019
Even with this being the best season yet, I am not particularly eager for a fourth season. Go to Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 09/25/2019
The performances from cast members old and new simmer and flare brilliantly. Deeply steeped in place in a way that few other urban dramas are, it's a must-see. Go to Full Review Kevin Bourne SHIFTER 09/10/2023
Season three is a sad, emotional and well-executed send off to one of the best British crime series in recent memory. Go to Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) 09/16/2019

letaiser Jul 16 What an incredible season, I thought in the first few episodes that there is no way that this is going to be better than the first season of summerhouse but I guess I was wrong, I was watching episodes back to back because I just couldn't get away from the tv, this was genuinely just a good watch with much action. See more Cr W Apr 13 It's wel made. But the series is letting the viewer identify with the wrong people. It's not the dealers and so called baby gangsters that deserve our attention, but the casualties the make. I don't care what kind of rough childhood these 'yout' are going through, they are the perpetrator not the victim. Absolutely destroying lives for a little money. So this series keeps the gangster myth going, surely this can not be the aim. But producers are like their hero's here: only out for profit. Crime sells. See more Matthew B 11/18/2024 A compelling statement that breaks down the dark underworld of London, in a light that leaves the viewer incited by its gloom. A must watch, even for the sceptical. Albeit, the lingo may find its way into the corners of your vocabulary, innit. See more Regal R 09/29/2023 40/100 - the ending to season 2 was laughable, predictable, and the beginning of season 3 was sadly just as terrible and predictable. 9 minutes and 50 seconds in and youve already figured out the whole season. how did this show continue? its sad because theres plenty of good british gangster films. this does not live up to the hype and how it has a 90 rating i'll never know. the story is SOOOO bad See more GS M 09/09/2023 I'm talking about latest season on Netflix Man I'm soo mad I was expecting the best from sesson 3 After first episode I was init But all downhill from there actors did amazing job but writing sucks This season is worst I ever seen See more Ugo 09/09/2023 Missing characters from prior seasons, plots that go no where and very confusing. Very poor ending and in all a horrible season. See more Read all reviews
