If you haven't read the book you might struggle to follow this show.

I've watched 2 episodes and I'm enjoying it. It's a gritty as the book. Though I think they need to explain more in the show for people who haven't read the book. Otherwise it's hard to follow.

From the Hollywood Reporter's review, "At the same time, impressionable devotees of the genre are the ones most likely to recognize that the show is, itself, a patchwork of far more than six familiar serial killer movies and TV shows. Its only original aspect is the often chaotic stitching together of the familiar elements."

Nothing really new here, a terrible script and a waste of good actors/actresses. Guess AMC must have been desperate when they funded this series. A simple old "Vera", "Grantchester" or "Endeavour" murder mystery is so much better and they are believable, this one is not.

Lucy Hale's character will drive lots of potential viewers away from the series. She is the combination of all things the rest of the world don't like about Americans.

Not very good at all. It's one of those programs where you get to see all the good bits in the previews. Acting was OK, American character was very annoying 'tho.

A serial killer kills his victims in a particularly bleak and gruesome fashion, a team of Detectives have to battle against the clock to catch him, a list of victims offers a glimmer of hope.

Ok, it's not the easiest thing to follow, at times you will be scratching your head, wondering what on Earth is going on, episode three had me utterly baffled. It's one of those that is worth sticking with, as the whole thing is somehow better than the sum of its parts.

Some of the killings are outrageously over the top, but wonderfully macabre, enough here for fans of suspense and horror. It's well paced, gritty and does in fairness feel very unique, it's definitely not your run of the mill thriller. If you like a series that answers every question, feels black and white, you'll be frustrated.

The acting is generally good, one character is very annoying, perhaps intentionally so, Sam Troughton and Sam Spiro are just wonderful.

Don't expect to fully understand, but expect to be shocked and entertained. 7/10.
