Wreck

This show is so insane. It fully leans into the embrace of what it is. A glorious irreverent, off the wall, totally bonkers and unpredictable schlock-fest.

It has humor, scares, gore, suspense, and plenty of Heart. You have characters you love, characters you love to hate, and characters you just hate.

There's something for everyone.

It has dark humor and it just absolutely goes for it with no holds barred.

I am So ready for a season 2! This one season can stand alone as a capsule but it stands ready for a season 2 also. It has twists and turns and character growth. I genuinely jumped a few times from suspense.

Very well done.

This was such a fun discovery for me - think Below Deck meets Hot Fuzz with a dash of Scream and Scream Queens. Each episode just got better and better. After reading some of the other user reviews, this is clearly a show that some will appreciate and others will not. I think some reviewers have missed a couple things. Wreck is firmly set in a Slasher universe, and so tonally it's a little madcap, but it also has a lot more depth than most slasher films. It's clear that a lot of thought and love has gone into the making of this show. It features all the other horror conventions we've come to know and love, but also proper, real feeling 3D dimensional characters - and hooray for proper queer representation that isn't all doom and gloom. I'll admit it, I'm a grown woman, and not the target audience, but I love this show. It kept me guessing to the end, and I never saw the BIG twist coming...

A brother working on a cruise ship looking to find out what has happened to his sister. Murder mystery, everyone is a suspect, no one can get off the ship. Bad management and corrupted staff. Had potential but badly written. Too many unnecessary violence and intimacy scenes just to fill screening time. Not likeable characters, not one nice person on the cruise, apart from the brother. Watched only few episodes enjoyed the first one, then got bored. Definitely not a comedy, more like a horror series for teenagers with homosexual preferences. Shame, because the acting is quite good and the first episode was promising.

If you're watching this thinking it's going to be a hardcore comedy then you're in for a disappointment. However, as a mystery thriller with horror and comedy elements then I really enjoyed it.

Six episodes was the adequate amount of time to introduce, investigate and resolve the case (but leave enough left to lead into series 2 which I am looking forward to).

The writer has also peppered the script with callbacks to famous films of the last 30 years, which is a fun little Easter egg to keep an eye on.

I wasn't really familiar with any of the cast beyond Liam from Ladhood, but they all played their parts well (even if you hated them).

Loved this series. A couple of things I loved:

• I love that it's a genre bending show: comedy, horror, drama in all one. And they are not afraid to really go there with each genre. The funny moments are really funny. The horror moments are gory. The dramatic beats are sincerely heartfelt.

• the gay and Asian representation. Who knew a UK BBC show would ever give us some much-needed representation and actually succeed? Vivian is delightful and we finally have a gay Asian love interest.

• the pacing is great - in six episodes there's a lot there but it's never overwhelming. I think this show deserves a second series.
