Eyewitness

Eyewitness is one of the best things on TV I would say. It's not something that has a lot humor and if you can't watch drama, probably not your show, which is okay. However, it's not a show that is gonna make you depressed to watch. It has a very good story line and plot, it is not simply just about Philip and Lukas witnessing the murder and struggling with not being able to tell, mostly because of Lukas being paranoid of people finding out he's gay. There are many plot lines in this, like a ex FBI agent (now Philip's foster mom and sheriff in a small town), a FBI agent with a sister in serious trouble, and of course the killer. So you aren't just seeing things from Lukas and Philip's eyes. The writing is not predictable and you will be surprised and entertained.

This isn't a show that is in poor LGBT taste, there aren't any gay stereotypes in this.

This cast is really great, despite the fact that most of these actors aren't known. everyone on the show does a amazing job, I really love what the actors who play Philip and Lukas are doing.

I love this show a lot already. To have a realistic, gay relationship on a show as the main relationship is ground-breaking. There's also a lot of good representation and I enjoy the plot. This show takes place in a realistic setting with a lot of twists that those interested in mystery might enjoy. There's also a lot of dramatic irony and good character development, which also would appeal to watchers. There are a lot of characters that watchers can relate to and/or admire. There are some sensitive topics that are explored, and references to trauma, which only makes the characters more well-developed and the plot more interesting. There is some pedophilia, which I don't recommend, and inappropriate scenes in which I don't wish to explore again. But all topics do add on to the show's plot, so otherwise I suggest to watch Eyewitness, definitely, as this is an underrated show compared to many others. I hope more people watch this show and enjoy it as well as I do.

This miniseries started well - and the muted colors worked very well for some beautiful scenes. Basically though there was not enough material (or it was simply not narrated in sufficient depth) to warrant 10 episodes. The series upon which it was based was 'only' 6 episodes and so should this have been (imho) - or even less!

I also felt that too many significant events only happened because of the unbelievable stupidity of some of the cast. I find this to be a cheap and lazy method of introducing plot turns and excitement. Furthermore the bad guy was only caught by a last minute revelation that, if true, could/should not - for credibility - have been so completely hidden up to that point. I had higher hopes for this miniseries based on the reviews I read.

I've only watched one episode, but like what I've seen and am optimistic about the rest of the season. If you're a fan of Julianne Nicholson, she's the lead character. If you're not familiar with her work, you should be. In this series, she again plays a woman with a troubled past, a role she does extremely well.

The series in not the usual legal, police, or hospital action or drama show. There is a murder, but the focus seems to be more on the characters' lives, emotions, challenges instead of solving the crime. Don't be misled by the gay-bashing reviews. That's only one relationship, in addition to the sheriff and her doctor husband, the FBI agent, her undercover agent, and the undercover's wife, the sheriff and her deputy, ... you get the idea.

If you've enjoyed shows, as I have, like The Red Road, The Bridge, Top of the Lake, American Crime (the one with Regina King and Felicity Huffman), give this one a chance, too.

This show is perfect. I have heard from many young adults that it has changed their lives-- and it's only on the first season. This show is so entertaining and the audience feels drawn to the characters and can relate to them each in their own way. A strong, independent female lead police officer, real-life beautiful LGBTQ representation, coming out stories, crime and mystery, the struggles and real world problems that come along with being a foster child/trying to create a family bond.. This show covers it all. Watch if you have not watched yet. This show has the opportunity to become something big and help people all around the world. I hope it continues for many more seasons!! The outpouring of love for it on twitter and other social media sites proves that it should be continued...
