Rules of the Game

The harsh criticism is uncalled for in my opinion. It shows so many different workplace issues and it kept me engaged all the way through.

I would say that Maya was definitely a bit obsessive and it would've been good to see her focus on other topics not just the one involving tess but I understand that was the point of the show. I didn't like the cheese club either that was silly and I can agree much of the cast was unlikeable but that is the point I think. Did we even see Maya's mother shed a tear?

Otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it.

I'm not agreement with all the reviews on here we really enjoyed it and unlike a lot of shows now actually finished watching it till the end to see the plot unfold...get pass the first one as people on here have commented without giving it a chance.

I have just watched rules of the game on the BBC I found this 4 part drama/ mystery really entertaining, I don't know why others have rated it so low, I don't know what they were watching. The cast was excellent especially Maxine Peake & Alison Steadmans performances. The plot is plausible, I suspect this happens in many corporations around the world. The script was well written I would give it a go, but perhaps see all episodes before commenting to give the plot time to develop. I don't agree with other's sentiments on this drama, I would highly recommend.

This was a good show. In the reviews you will see comments like old clichés or same old thing. Because yes it is the same old thing still going on to this day of what happens to women. One even wanted to know what companies allow 16 year olds to work for them?? Many! It's called an internship! Duh. You can pretty much guess who left those kinds of reviews. Shows like this are still being made because it's STILL happening. To women. So take a wild guess where most of the negative reviews come from. Yes you pretty much knew who was in the wrong but it was the unfolding of the story that was good. Some people just can't understand that. This is made for people who want to know the story not just try to guess the killer in the first 5 minutes. Give it a shot if that sounds like something you are in to. You might like it.

I have worked for the last 25 years in a mixed environment but mostly male. I have seen some of the behaviours shown in this series so I can relate to some of it , what is missing though is the representative good people and particularly all the good men, the ones who are kind, thoughtful and supportive. I have worked with some difficult women but also many who have worked incredibly hard and remain wonderful. What I am trying to say is that this series lacks nuance, it like using a brick to open a window. It's a start but only that. Hopefully something similar can be produced which taps into the idea that we are not all good or all bad.
