Fearless

As much as I am enjoying Fearless make no mistake this is Helen McCrory's show and boy is she good as the maverick lawyer, trying to free the wrongly convicted and bring down major political figures and government 's in the pursuit of justice. Fearless is bit of a slow burner the first two shows concentrating on the wrongfull conviction for the murder of a young girl 15 years previously at an American airforce base. From the third show onwards Fearless really hits its straps taking us into new territory with several plot twists along the way. Well written, well acted Fearless ticks all the boxes. And watch out Olivia Coleman, Helen McCrory may soon take over your crown as the darling of UK TV and film,

Fearless is a quality British mini-series, six episodes long that you will probably binge watch once you started. As a mystery/crime it works very well. Each episode ends with a cliffhanger so you can't wait to watch the next episode. It's the Helen McCrory show to be honest. She's the star of the show and her performance is phenomenal. It was nice to watch the late Helen McCrory again, an actress that will be missed and that deserved a higher recognition. The rest of the cast was good as well but it's Helen McCrory that steals the show. Always very elegant to watch and convincing in her acting. Glad I stumbled onto this mini-series.

It certainly is worth a better score than it has at present. Script and acting are both good. It is complex enough with several stories going at once. There are a range of characters who inhabit the story and who require some concentration to unravel their roles. It is about people's intertwining lives and how people in powerful positions are able to divert justice to protect their secrets. It is about good and evil and innocence and guilt. It is about parents and children and the power of relationships and the need that is intrinsic in human nature. There is mystery and suspense which drives the characters and story along. In my opinion, it is worth at least an eight. The English know how to deliver a suspenseful series and they excel at keeping the momentum going.

I just saw only two episodes of it and i already started liking it. It started slowly with simple plot and makes you watch without a gap waiting for the next episode to air. It reminds me of True Detective but i sense more depth in it. I hope this continues in the next episodes without dragging too much. Script & screenplay is excellent.

We couldn't stop watching and would love a season 2 tomorrow! Banville was compelling, as was Greenwood. Would love to see these two characters fleshed out even more. Her partners retorts to her demands at the end were brilliant. I'd like to see more of Dom next season (right, get on this!?) I'v managed to watch all Brit TV for the past 6 years & have raved to family members about the quality & depth of programs where no one screams, all women aren't pretending to be tough guys & how USA TV is shite.... to no avail...until we all cut the cord. We all now are members of BritBox, AcornTv, Walter Presents, Netflix, AMZN & the list will expand. As long as you produce shows like Fearless, River, Paranoid, Happy Valley, Norskov, Rita we'll happily live to see the demise of USA crap TV. This wasn't the BEST show ever, but it beats 99% of what we're offered on this side of the Atlantic. More, more more!
