Bloodline

I've wanted to watch Bloodline for the longest time but kept putting it off for other shows for some reason. I finally gave it a chance and I loved it. I'm now mad at myself for putting it off for so long. It starts a little slow for some but stay with it because before you know it you can't stop watching it. Season 3 wasn't quite as good as the first two but it's still worth watching and really only speaks to just how good those first two seasons were. I do have to admit that the ending was just awful. The acting and writing are what makes this show so special. I can't say enough about the entire casts performances, they all do an incredible job and are led by Kyle Chandler, Ben Mendelsohn and Linda Cardelli. Those 3 all give award worthy performances. I know Mendelsohn and Chandler were both nominated every season for an Emmy and Mendelsohn even won an Emmy for best supporting actor. It's a show that's absolutely worth watching!

This rating is based on 10 for the first two seasons and a 2 for the last season. I don't think there has ever been a more captivating story that fizzled into meaningless garbage in the end. The last two episodes can only leave me to believe that the writers either quit before then, or they decided that since the show was being canceled that they would deliver crap to fill out the rest of the season. What a disappoint.

Season 1 is among the best television to ever be made. Season 2 lacks luster and season 3 is a joke.

Luckily season 1 is mostly self contained and can and should be watched as a solo show.

First time review. I typically don't bother since movies/shows can be so highly subjective.

Started out to be at least one of our top 5 series... Gripping story, great writing, superb acting. What more could you want?

Season 1....10 stars Season 2....9.5 stars

Waiting for season 3 was agonizing, and the result was a total failure for an ending. What a monumental disappointment.

Season 3....0 stars

How can you rate 3 seasons when they are so different? I loved the first 2, but the third was really bad. Don't know what happened in production but something must have happened. The third season didn't have any of the qualities and ideas in the first two. Too bad... I'm leaving this on a very bad impression.
