I Hate Suzie

Fun, bit different, not preachy, good mix of drama and comedy. Enjoying it!

A lot of the comments giving the show lower scores are saying it was too chaotic and the emotional ride never "let up" after the first episode. It would seem that people aren't fully aware of the emotional rollercoaster that grief can play on us, which is exactly what this show is about. Each episode is based off of another stage in the process and to forget this when criticising the show is actually doing the show a disservice. It captures the stages very well and the acting throughout was great. Only thing that was a little pushed may have been the extent to which Daniel's character was so manipulative and belittling, however, the show still accurately portrays how these kinds of people make those around them feel. Billie acts in a way that allows you to see what is going on in her characters head without her actually speaking and this show allowed her to show off this talent. Great watch and interesting conversation starters when questioning characters' values and decisions with others that have watched.

I thought this was a great show from start to finish. The story is told at just the right pace and was done so brilliantly.

I genuinely feel as though this could happen the way it plays out here and, probably has.

It seems very, unfair, in places - The way Suzie is treated from some of her friends and colleagues is horrible to watch in places but I'd imagine that in that world its to be expected.

Of course Suzie isn't completely innocent and that lends itself to not quite being able to feel completely sorry for her at the same time.

A sad reflection of the media and the role it can play in people's lives. A sad reflection of the times we live in.

You do find yourself rooting for Suzie though, to somehow get away from the mess she finds herself in and the people who surround her.

Hopefully they'll do another series.

4 episodes in I kinda did hate Suzie... stick it out though. It's a really great at showing what women have to go through in today's world! Loved it by the end.

The opening episode of this was great, with fantastic acting and balancing a sense of doom with chaos. The second was good too, but it declined by the middle, seemingly not sure what it was about.

The later episodes contained some really good moments, but they were harder to find, although plot wise it picked up again.

Overall, I enjoyed it, and it was a refreshing change to everything else on tv, but it felt like it needed a good edit, and perhaps to be a couple of episodes shorter.
