Something Undone

Watched the series over 2 days and really enjoyed the plot development, emotional twists and acting.

It kept me watching because it is clever and unpredictable. The two lead actors have written and produced it, therefore invested in it. It is not too scary just surprising in parts. Hope there is another series but it is complete as it is.

The locations add to a feeling of being trapped and remote. The series is not dumbed down as some TV is but left me thinking about it afterwards, especially the ending. I really recommend that you see it for yourself if you like something intelligent and unpredictable.

This dropped on itvX -- a free streaming service in the UK -- yesterday (14 Dec 2023) -- and I binged it. It was highlighted in the TV listings magazine I read so I was hopeful it would be at least half decent. Unfortunately, it's worth just about what I paid to see it. There's so much filler and so little thriller that I recommend you give it a miss.

The real problem here is the weak screenplay (and the weak underlying story). But also, more competent actors in the two lead roles could perhaps have brought more of a sense of realism to things. I couldn't buy Michael Musi as the supposed stellar podcaster, nor Madison Walsh as this supposed groundbreaking Foley artist (her "outstanding" sound effects for the podcast were supposed to be its USP).

Farid (played by Michael Musi) is supposed to be in some serious degree of peril, and yet he ambles around as if he's conducting his interviews in a pretty benign environment. And the whole Jo (played by Madison Walsh) "subplot" as she clears her dead mother's house is so confusing that I really struggled to know what was supposed to be actually happening and what she was imagining.

Such a mess. Please give it a miss.

This really could have been much better if the main male character wasn't such an idiot. For someone to believably have had a successful podcast series, he is incredibly inept at talking to people, easily manipulated and self-involved. He has no foresight and doesn't even bother to keep things to self-insure himself to counter blackmail. His character just isn't believable. It's more like an 18 year old set out to do a podcast and through a series of impulsive decisions pissed off the mafia or something. I really liked the first few episodes, once they go to the Island it goes downhill. It's a pity as the acting is good, just the plot is ridiculous.

And that is the ending, what the hell happend

Neither you like this serie or not I think we all can agree about the start was very good, I was nailed the 4 first episodes, spooky, clever, mystic and just well done, but just when it felt like this serie could be the best ever, something turns and then it went down faster than a submarine with a screen door

No , it just made a meteorite fall and crashed real hard , the story could have been so good but they just wanted this stupid drama so much it destroyed the whole serie, annoying characters and a bad director helped alot also

Its not a good serie, but sure , its ok to watch a rainy sunday, but not a friday evning with popcorn in your lap.

Really enjoyed this series. I came across this title on cbc gem and was delighted to see many recognizable Canadian talent throughout the season. The visuals are beautiful. I was so delighted to see that part of the story took place in Newfoundland. Cbc Gem has many interesting films and series available for free but with many ads throughout. I really enjoyed Something Undone and am very pleased to have come across it. I recommended it to my daughter and she is loving it as well. For any Tom Power fans out there, you will be pleasantly surprised to see him playing himself in one of the episodes. I recommend giving this a watch you will not be disappointed.
