Dead Hot

I liked this! Offbeat quirky humour, lots of plot twists, fun modern characters. Would recommend as a fun watch, would watch a second season, but I don't think I'd rewatch it - so I gave it a 7/10. Especially enjoyed the grandma and auntie, totally bonkers and a really good juxtaposition to Elliot's normal world. If I had to name any negatives, I guess because it's quirky and cartoonish I didn't find myself emotionally invested in the characters, but I did enjoy them. And I was invested in the plot enough to want to know the resolution! A few times I laughed out loud hard and had to rewind to enjoy a line again. Solid comedy.

"Dead Hot" is a captivating TV show that seamlessly blends drama, thriller, and comedy into a thrilling experience. One of its standout features is the abundance of twists and turns, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats throughout. The stellar cast delivers outstanding performances, drawing viewers into the world of the show from the very beginning. Personally, I found myself completely hooked, unable to look away as the story unfolded. "Dead Hot" is truly unlike anything I've ever seen before, and it quickly sucked me into its intriguing world.

I kinda didn't want it to end as I want to see more of the cast and the dramas... Will there be a season 2..

I didn't expect much going into this - I often find Prime Video series to be predictable and dull - but I fancied a light, fun murder-mystery as a change from the more serious, gritty ones which can get quite tedious sometimes... so I gave it a try.

Within the first episode, my curiosity was piqued and I was ready to binge the whole thing. There are laugh-out-loud moments aplenty but I also felt the show handled the more serious scenes well which helped to propel the mystery within the show as well as build the audience's empathy and investment in the characters.

Anyone who loves plot twists will have a ball with this series - each new clue leads to further questions, with the strange events & twists occurring throughout the show right up until the very end.

Sadly I expect Prime will not commission a second season as they often don't commit to these shows unless they go viral. But I really hope I'm wrong and they release a second installment as I think the wonderful characters and playful-yet-punchy writing has a lot of potential.

I strongly recommend this to anyone looking for a light-hearted mystery series with lots of comedy and heartfelt moments thrown in.

Really enjoyed this quirky series aimed at the younger generation. So many twists and turns. Great script and look to the series. Witty, surprising, wild. Excellent cast, and strong on diversity. Would watch this a second time and hope they make a second season. The best series I've seen on Amazon Prime in a long time. Different tone and colour palette. Oddball, offbeat characters who nevertheless felt real and lived-in. Perfect for teenagers but also older folks. It's great that young voices are now being heard via the streaming services as it is imperative that we change the discourse to appeal to a new generation.

You've never seen anything like it. It's silly and suspense and wild -- and the twists will make your jaw drop. The cast is great. It's funny to see someone like Penelope Wilton who you know from Downton Abbey diving head first into the material. Peter Serafinowicz is another legend in this -- but it's the new young cast that shines.

It is both a comedy and a mystery. Dead Hot is also very modern. Set in edgy Liverpool, it deals with dating apps and psychics and crazy workouts and nutty nightclubs. This is not for the prudish or traditional. The characters are often selfish and weird and yet that makes them more lovable.

Highly recommended.
