Muerto y enterrado

I have never left a review before but having read the mostly negative reviews I felt compelled to leave one after enjoying this show so much. My partner and I watched this entire series in one night and were on the edge of our seats. I thought the acting was on the whole really good, especially Colin Morgan who never disappoints. I think that slightly left-field plot lines makes a thriller interesting and fun as you try and guess what's going to happen in real time. I had no issue with the born again Christian group and thought it was a clever way to acknowledge this corruption that goes on in the real world. I think the last episode was intended to capture a Shakespearean tragedy and those that complained about it lacking a neat and tidy conclusion would likely have been the same people to complain about it being too predictable if it had one. Would defintely recommend!!

Ended really poorly...let down by plot holes all over the place, some really bad acting in places, unbelievable storylines and behaviour from the main characters and supporting characters and all kinds of subplots that went nowhere, fast.

It seems like it should've played out in six parts rather than four, the ending was totally ridiculous and left a lot of questions unanswered. Buildup flashbacks are all well and good but at some point we deserve the logical 'full picture' of the past. Otherwise it makes not a lot of sense...

I thought the young man played the torn up, angry teenager really well and he will go far as an actor. Just a bit wasted on this series.

I can't say I hated it, it had a good start and build which I enjoyed for a while but it all felt messy, a bit thrown together and rushed at the end.

I have said it before and I will say it again: what is wrong with those reviewers who like to find fault in everything and then give scathing and unjustifiable reviews??

And for those who genuinely don't get the intricate but yet subtle plot twists throughout- which DID pass the test of believability - perhaps watch at a different time when you gain more life experience and an increase in emotional intelligence...

For those who do 'get it', you will be delighted at very consumate and polished acting performances throughout supplemented by highly creative storytelling that easily passes the test of believability.

And if that weren't enough, copperfastened by superb direction that kept the viewer guessing right until the end; an ending that had multiple and shocking twists that compels the viewer to be on the edge of their seat - terrific stuff.

A drama series that highlights the potentially devastating consequences of stalking that gets completely out of hand, and to which should make us all sit up and take notice.

I highly recommend - a riveting watch!

Where do we start? It's always possible that someone could just bump into the guy who killed her brother - as you do, in a supermarket car park - and then that you get more and more obsessed with messing his life up. He's "done his time" but that's not enough for Cathy... She has to ruin the killer's life.

The story-line requires that working people just take time of of work; Cathy just disappears for an hour or two and her husband accepts it; a phone gets stolen, with no induction how. The dialogue doesn't flow, the characters are two-dimensional and uninteresting. The story gets more and more ridiculous and the demands on the poor cast become overwhelming: at times, you can read it in the actors' eyes: "How did I get involved in this?" Fortunately, there are only four episodes to endure, although I suspect they planned for six and decided to cut and run after four.

I endured all episodes of this dire offering from the BBC. One and a half episodes in and I really didn't care what happened to any of the two dimensional characters, by episode three I was skip watching just to get to the end. The flimsy storyline revolves around the lengths to which the female protagonist will go to get revenge on the man who killed her brother many years previously; the whys and wherefores of which are never fully explained. She is a teacher, so supposedly intelligent; but her actions become increasingly ridiculous as she twitters, cries copious amounts of tears into copious amounts of wine and lurches from one unbelievable situation to the next whilst dragging her equally stupid friend along for the ride. By a strange coincidence her husband; also a teacher; teaches the son the man and there seems to be some kind of never goes anywhere subplot involving the two of them. And then we are treated to an ending that is so bad it is laughable. The whole thing is made worse by the poor acting, the dire dialogue and the lack of any resolution or explanation of the subplots. This series falls well short of taut thriller status. If you want a good "revenge stalking" thriller try Red Road instead.
