Lies and Deceit

I loved these series. Captivating story, tension building development through episodes, unexpected turns, great acting. I watched all episodes in one set.

... Spanish thriller drama series consisting of a remake of the British series Liar... called Lies & Deceit on Netflix... IMDb median rating is '7'... and that's about right... well cast & produced, there are some inconsistencies yet overall the show is entertaining... endings for these types of series can be iffy propositions & this one is not altogether satisfying... but majority of viewers agree it is worth-watching.

The first 2 episodes are pretty good, they'll have you wondering who is telling the truth; and then for whatever reason they reveal everything in the third episode and it just goes downhill from there because we already know the truth.

It becomes super repetitive and boring at this point, I had to fast forward through some long drawn-out sections. The main character was very annoying, the doctor was super ridiculous and creepy and they wouldn't explain the reasonings behind his acts. A few characters were brought into the show with no follow-up.

The only relatively interesting storyline involved the sister, but that doesn't really go anywhere, and I found her character annoying as well. I usually like Spanish thrillers but this bombed.

It is rare that I just cannot finish a series- that too one that only has six episodes. This is the most dull, slow, uneventful and ridiculously contrived show I have watched EVER. I was reeled in by the "preview" on netflix which promised a psychological thriller after a mysterious night.

Spoiler alert (not): there is never any thrill to come. Just a bunch of monotonous conversations, no challenge that the protagonist has to overcome to get her story heard and the sister/ex husband affair is thrown in just for some excitement. But that is stupid too as its obviously added in due to lack of anything else going on.

Such an amateur take on the British drama Liar. Watched it merely for the Spanish as I currently study it but this is painful to watch. Bad acting, aweful writing. Just bad. Avoid.
