Summary
Reviewers say 'Surface' garners mixed reviews for its mystery and thriller elements. Praise is directed towards the visual aesthetics, Gugu Mbatha-Raw's performance, and the intriguing storyline. However, criticisms highlight a predictable, slow script filled with clichés. Some find characters unlikable and the plot shallow. The show's portrayal of interracial relationships is divisive, with varied opinions on its authenticity. Pacing and series length are often criticized for dragging on too long. Despite these issues, many still find 'Surface' entertaining and recommend it.

No doubt that this was a good story and the first episodes keep you interested. Unfortunately it appears as if the writers worried about a predictable ending and didn't know what to do for a finale.
The final episode makes no sense and leaves a lot of loose ends. So it leaves you with a sense of having watched to go to a dead end.

Not a horrible series but definitely not one of the best I've watched. Could have been shortened to probably 5 or 6 episodes. There was just a lot of unnecessary interactions. I liked getting to know the characters even if most were not so likable. Plus, you still had no idea if they were good or bad!lol! I liked the scenes of all the different places. Wow! Must be nice to be that rich- or not! The ending was somewhat surprising. But, you kind of had a feeling it was headed that way. I'm not for sure if I'd spend my time watching the next season. Maybe.i guess it will depend on when it comes out and if I have other shows I'd rather watch.
It's not a terrible series, but it's unoriginal. More style than substance, it's a glossy production with a shallow script. Gugu MR does her best, but her character fails to be that interesting. And no, having a black protagonist married to a white man is not "woke" or propaganda. If you think that in 2022 you need to go outside and observe reality.
I thought the lead female and male where both excellent actors. Don't listen to all the crazies about this movie being woke. Not a clue what they are talking about. Unless you don't like a white man with a black woman. (We all know that's called something else...not woke) sad that a good show has crappy reviews. I enjoyed it. Especially since I didn't have to commit to a second season. It could have easily been a movie instead of a series though. It's worth the watch.
Why are people calling this show "woke" and insisting it's a liberal agenda? Is it cause the main character is black and married to a white man? I'm so confused.
Anyway, it's like a Lifetime movie at best. Script is horrible, but it's entertaining and a fun Friday night watch.
