After the Verdict

After The Verdict is a quirky and fun Australian mystery. The investigation begins after the verdict is read. Like the British, the actor's portray their roles with amazing debt and to perfection. They are very believable. I love the protagonist played by Michelle Lim Davidson and all of the actors playing the jurors. Lincoln Younes has great one liner's. Each juror is unique. The characters are all so much fun and knee deep in the mystery of the death of a woman. From the victim's husband to the jurors, the police and the woman who was acquitted of the murder, the personalities are so much fun. I have totally enjoyed it. This is a light mystery that you watch when you want cozy and fun. I would love for it to continue with the same character's. They would be great detectives after a verdict is announced. Don't listen to anyone who gives it a bad rating. Watch past the first episode and judge for yourself. Lots to see each episode.

I had really high hopes for this show, and was excited to watch when it finally came out. The premise is great, and most of the cast is fantastic, but the lead actress who plays Clara is just plain annoying. Her acting is way over the top, and her comedic timing is off. For instance, watch the scene where she bludgeons a car with a cello, and you'll know what I mean. The scene is just not funny, but it should have been, and would have been with a better actor. Going to persevere to find out whodunnit, and because im enjoying watching the rest of this great Aussie cast/ensemble, but it's not gripping me.

Not too many crime shows manage to successfully combine a gripping plot with humour - but 'After the Verdict' definitely delivers both. I'm totally addicted and can't wait to crack this one!

After the Verdict's first miniseries is so great. Binged it in a couple of nights, and it's well paced, has great characterisation, and a real mystery that threads through well. I'm in my mid 30s and found lots of elements of the show (relationships, children, older parents, etc) both relatable and moving. Lots of fun for its Sydney humour, settings and observations, including just how painful the real estate market is. Clara is a great lead character who is relatable and the casting across the series is spot on. I'd love another series (don't know if that's possible though...) and more like this in Australian TV!

Definitely had potential but the acting is absolutely abysmal. Doubt I'll be able to get through all the episodes. Really is a shame because it could have been really good, interesting concept, good storyline. The main character Clara is completely infuriating. She is wildly annoying, maybe that is the character or maybe it is just poor acting skills. Either way, it ruins a lot of the series for me personally. There isn't much depth to any of the characters and it seems a little bit overacted, trying too hard and it has not paid off. I can't relate or feel any kind of empathy for the characters.
