Coroner

It's more of a quiet show. Not much action, more insightful to peoples' lives and deaths. A bit mysterious, sometimes. But not depressing or sad. Some melancholia. I think we need such shows apart from the big fates and adventorous marvels. It is just wonderful. Season 2 was overdramtized, so many things happened, it was a bit too nail biting (but also bold). Season three is more calm, and some could call it boring, especially since there are covid-masks everywhere, which I appreciate. We shouldn't deny what we live. There is a fine line between calmness and boredom, well balanced through season 1, strongly avoided in Season 2. I still hold Coroner very dear and I am thankful that it got three seasons. Hopefully, someone makes the right decision and gives it a fourth one. The chemistry between Seinda Swan (Jenny) and Roger Cross (Donovan) is very good.

I've got to give it up to Canadian Television. More and more great shows are coming from our northern neighbors. This show, while I only have watched 3 episodes, leaves me wanting to see whats next. I like that the actor's are relatively unknown, at least to me, and they are all good. No overacting, seamless transitions form scene to scene, like the header says, so far, it's a good show. I always wait until I've seen at least 3 episodes before I write one of these. I wish others would do the same, I've seen reviews, both good and bad, sometimes posted before the air date. Please, if you have had a viewing of the first episode before the rest of us, please don't base your review on one episode. Just my humble opinion.

We've watched every episode and although we're not giving up on it, so many characters with psychotic thoughts & responses is really unnerving!! Seriously, no one can handle their own lives let alone their job because their minds are unable to cope because of their history! It's like an entire cast of sick people who need medication to cope! I can't see how anything can be resolved, when they all leave in bizarre nether worlds!

For those who thought the show was unrealistic because she was able to finish med school with a young child, episode 7 addresses that. I was disappointed, but not surprised by reviewers who somehow thought that because the lead character has mental health issues she is weak and incapable of doing her job. Mental health issues are not caused by weakness. This is why so many people who are struggling hide their issues which leads to more negative outcomes. This is also why we need more shows like these that show people living their lives, while also dealing with mental health issues. I am an avid fan of mysteries and police procedurals and this did not disappoint, while also displaying characters i found likeable and could identify with

Seasons 1 and 2 were good. But season 3 is a major step backwards. There are weak story lines: too much time spent on the coroner's messed up psyche. Her personal life was a small, continuous part of seasons 1 and 2, but is now the major component of every episode in season 3. Hard to be very enthusiastic about this series now. Pity.
