Blindspot

This is so horrendously bad - I'm addicted to it. If this was Ross Kemp doing a documentary on bad acting, I'd give it a 10/10.

The acting is bad, the script is bad, the story could be good if it had been better produced.

For a thriller, there are few thrills and little in the way of tension or apprehension. It has literally stirred no emotion in me - apart from disbelief.

The CCTV was installed post-murder to make the estate safer. But no CCTV installed to cover the dark bin area which was the scene of the murder 🤷

If I could be bothered, I'd play cliché bingo - every sad cliché has been used. The over-acting would be considered good if this was an end of term school play, but as a prime time drama it lacks any quality.

Having said that - I will continue watching on the off chance it gets better.

Can't believe somebody at Channel 5 say through this and still thought "yeah that's great let's air that" It was full of plot holes and the acting was like GCSE drama, the lead character being the worst culprit. Like when she wheeled away from a man on foot shes supposed to be faster than him? It was actually embarrassing to watch at some points. Acting aside the character was not likeable in any way, and there seemed to be hardly anyone in the whole show?

I like Ross Kemps documentaries so to see him in this was sad to see. Not sure what tempted to go back to acting

Not impressed at all don't bother watching.

Take a terrible script writer, several really bad actors, one known soap actor, throw in a low budget and you get an appalling amateur boring four part series called Blindspot. I can't believe the Channel 5 production team would finance this and then having seen the finished production actually put it on tv!

I thought that many other channels shows were poor but few have reached this low a level. Even the villain wasn't that menacing and couldn't act either I'm surprised RADA gave any of the cast membership maybe a reflection of how low the younger acting profession has sunk to in recent times!

Early in the story, when the young lady wheeled herself out of danger faster than the bad guy could run, I knew the writing would not be stellar; but many of the scripts today leave much to be desired. The viewer must pay attention to the opening act to get the personalities & relationship of the main characters; Better editing may have made the story follow a bit more smoothly. I was waiting for a reason Hannah had shaved hair one year later but none was ever given.

Hannah, in my opinion, was not a likeable character, none of them were actually, but the who-done-it aspect held my attention throughout. Everyone was less than honest, forthcoming & helpful, and looked guilty and/or possibly involved at some point. Many twists & turns. I didn't expect the ending; I was glad I stuck with it.

So bad I don't even know where to start. An absolutely ridiculous plot with a storyline so full of holes you could drive a tank through it. I mean - the whole bins thing? Seriously stupid stuff like that turned it into almost a comedy.

The acting is dire. Kemp, who is no Olivier but is a decent enough actor, must be wondering where his life went wrong if this was his best option for an acting comeback. The rest of the cast aren't good enough to get a job as extras let alone get speaking parts! The lead character is vile - obnoxious, rude, totally unlikeable which actually could have been an interesting challenge for someone who could act, but Beth whatever her name is (I suspect we won't be hearing much of it in future) is as bad as the rest of them.

The whole thing has the vibe of a midweek daytime soap. I can only assume the 9 and 10 stars are friends and relatives of the cast. I gave it 1 star as zero wasn't an option. Really so, so bad - what were ch5 thinking?!?
