Fumée

Novelist, Dennis Lehane, creates an intelligent series that deals with the demented mind of pyromaniacs, all disguised as a mystery melodrama with edgy characters. Taron Egerton delivers an engaging - and sometimes uneasy performance - playing Dave Gudsen, an arson forensic for the fire department who draws you into the mystic power of the uncontrollable force of fire, a most powerful drug addiction to some. Jurnee Smollett matches it with a brutal portrayal as detective Calderone, forced to partner with Gudsen in order to track down the sick arsonists. The biggest surprise is Greg Kinnear as the fire chief, that brings the right balance to the yin and yang of the two main characters. A series well handled by the creative technical team that really gets into the psyche of the troubled minds who worship the power of the fire and its devastating effects.

After 2 episodes I'm in. This is easily one of my favorites shows of the year so far, unless the rest of the season goes off the rails. The characters are interesting, the dialog realistic (I'm no expert on the subject but it all feels legit), and the story has me completely hooked.

I don't understand the poor reviews especially after only 2 episodes. Cliche'? Maybe to some, but I haven't seen any other shows executed with this level of style and edginess in a while. The characters are just beginning to develop and boy are they a puzzle. After the plot twist at the end of episode 2, I can't wait to see where this goes.

I was excited to see Jurnee Smollett and Taran Egerton star together in this show, and the plot sounded very interesting too. The first episode was really difficult to watch with how slow and uneventful it was. I decided to continue giving it one more shot, and the second half of episode 2 is when things finally pick up and get interesting. From there, it became a great watch and was able binge the next episodes because the pacing improved and the story got more engaging. So, I recommend sticking around for a bit to give it a proper try.

The story develops very slowly, but becomes more exciting with each episode. The main character, Taron Egerton/Dave Gudson, plays a terrific role, but Ntare Mwine/Freddy Fasano also gives a chillingly excellent performance.

You need to be patient with this series, but your patience will be rewarded!"

I like the series, it has a good storyline about chasing 2 unknown arsonists. The actors are really good and the sound effects and visuals are good. Apple TV has starred again with another one of its great series.

This leaves you wanting more and can't wait to see the next episode. The other reviews that are downgrading this are rubbish with one of them stating the music is bad. However I think it's fitting. The actors are good quality, with a very intriguing storyline.

Well worth a watch and really describes some of the characters we have in this world today and what they are capable of.

Very good and well worth a watch.
