All the other 1/10ers have said it for me. I'm gonna be lazy like the writer/director of season 4 Ep 14 (director unbelievably Justin Bateman) and leave it at that.

Identical twins do not have identical fingerprints, teeth, or signatures; regarding the latter, the young cop Frank watches pensively as fake Adam signs for something. I was expecting him to dig out different signatures and compare them - but nothing. When fake Adam is confronted by Trond, Adam's secret lover, Trond should have known straight away that Erik was impersonating Adam. No mention whatsoever from Trond regarding their affair - why not? Trond planting a kiss on fake Adam's lips would have prompted a shocked reaction from 'Adam' - now THAT would have set the cat amongst the pigeons - again, nothing. As for the ending, well, a bit like a unicorn - it didn't exist.

I accept that telenovelas are a mix of drama. soap, thriller, but this one was padded with far too many soapy sub-plots. Enjoyed the first 10 episodes, but gave up when the main plot disappeared into a soapy swamp.

Enjoyed this up to the ending. If you want a detective series with a positive ending - don't watch this.

An excellent mystery/whodunnit. A great complex lead character (Capitaine Christian Janvier) with Jacques Gamblin realising the part perfectly. Can't fault this series - but for one thing... 'Les Oubliées' translates to 'The Forgotten' - so why change the title to 'Forgotten GIRLS', especially as the phrase 'The Forgotten' is referred to many times in the English subtitles? Hey, just translate the title, don't change it!

I was very patient up to series 1, episode 8, then I started zipping through the trite sub-plots until the end of series 1. This is the most drawn out, padded series I've ever seen. Learn from my mistake and don't watch it.

Yet another epic series from Mexico, thanks to Netflix - keep 'em coming! Each and every character well defined and portrayed by all actors. And what a cliffhanger! Cant wait for Series Two - well yes I can, I'll HAVE to!

One of the best and most original crime series I've seen in my (approx) 50 years of watching TV. Agree with everything the other 10 out of 10s say - plus a massive shout out for the performances of Camila Morgado as Janete Cruz, the abused woman and Eduardo Moscovis as Cláudio Antunes Brandão, her abusive, murderous partner. Utterly convincing. Bravo to all involved in this series!

As with the other in the Alamaailma Trilogia 'The Prisoner' - The incidental guitar and bongos 'music' was SO irritating! If it weren't for that, it would have been 10/10.

Late greats like Honor Blackman & Dudley Sutton (the original stage's 'Mr Sloane' of Joe Orton's "Entertaining Mr Sloane") couldn't prevent this train crash of a movie. The special effects were particularly bad; in some fights 'blood' could be seen squirting out from the inside of the various weapons. Want a funny "Cockneys vs Zombies"? Try "Del Boy & Rodney vs Zombies" written by the late great John Sullivan - unfortunately that ain't gonna happen!

One of the best detective series I've watched in a long time. Great well developed characters; nice little sub-plots that don't detract or interfere with the main plot. Acting direction and great shots of the Steppes. Oh, and a superb twist at the end!

There HAS to be a second series - the ending is a cliffhanger. If there's not to be second series, well, I have to say, a very disappointing ending! Apart from that, great acting all round, effects, and direction.

Enjoyed all aspects of this series - until the 'ending'. I MUST make a point of reading IMDb reviews before I watch anything.

Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Two very well defined leading characters (Kip & Marvin). Great acting by all, including the minor roles. If you love a good plot (pun not intended) with twists, this is one for you!

Leah's voice-over says at 1.20.40, "I know, I know, Moose lost his hand and his eye, but eventually he looked upon it like a badge of honor", as a bloody Moose staggers down Hollywood supported by Leah. Well, the extras in this scene didn't look upon it at all! They totally ignored this grisly sight - no, not looking away but ignoring, like no one else is on the street!! What was the director thinking when this scene was shot?! What was ANYONE witnessing that scene thinking? Too scared to mention it or what? "Erm, excuse me, a bloody man with an eye freshly gouged out, and a hand freshly cut off, is limping down the street - and the extras are taking a nonchalant walk in the park."

...'cos if I had I wouldn't have been led down the garden path to this movie's sinkhole of an ending.

Watched series one, but episode 10 killed it for me. We had a young daughter protecting the man who tried to shoot her father but missed and killed her little brother. Then the cliffhanger of daughter shooting at her father - we don't see the result... Roll credits. I'll take the advice from from the other low star 'critters' and avoid series 2.

Just found this show and looked foward to it after her brilliant first series - but so disappointed! To paraphrase the character 'Dennis Pennis', "Hey Tracey - how come you're not funny any more?" Although her impersonations are good, this show doesn't come anywhere NEAR Tracey's late 1980s show. Love to know what James L. Brookes (creator of her 80s show + Taxi et al) thought of it - I'm sure he would have binned those 'comedy' sketches.

Absolutely loved the first four series. However sub-plots, sub-sub plots and clichés piled on post season 4; still, I carried on watching, hoping it would get better, but season 6 episode 4 was the last straw for me, when Ghost had conversations with a ghost - Angie, not as a dream sequence but as if she were actually still alive.The way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if Angie returned to the series a la Bobby Ewing in 'Dallas' - i.e., "it was all a dream.".

I'm now on season 4. All the actors are great especially 'Pope'. Just one thing stops me giving a 10, and that is Ellen Barkin - talk about over-acting - all those 'walks away, stops, turns, purses lips, glares, swings a hip and mutters...'. She'd be great (seriously) in a British pantomime, where traditionally the over-the-top 'baddie' is booed and hissed at by the audience.

All the other 1/10 reviewers have said it for me - except one thing, and that is that this piece of badly written/directed piece of propaganda proves that there's no life after death, 'cos if there were, Rod Serling would seek out those responsible for insulting his memory, and dispose of them slowly and painfully.

Thoroughly enjoyed Season 1, looked forward to Season 2 and gave up after 20mins or so - Why? Mainly 2 things (a) Aureliano's appearance changed so much I had to check to see if it was the same actor; yes it was, fair enough, I went along with it, people's appearance's change. But what I could not 'buy' was that one of the murderous, drug-dealing criminal trio, (Gabriele Marchilli) suddenly became an assistant police inspector in Season 2! Sorry, just a bridge too far.

The plot description of 'Deadly Dentists' states; "While our fears of dentists are largely unfounded, there are times when it's right to be afraid. 'Deadly Dentists' delivers true stories about dentists involved in murder, giving us reason again to say we're afraid of the dentist". Well, I'd have no fear of visiting Episode One's 'kind caring' dentist John Yelenic, he was far from a 'Deadly Dentist', he ended up as the murder victim - a dead dentist! By the plot description we're led to believe that the dentist is deadly, in this case he was not - au contraire. Whether or not this case should have been included in 'Deadly Dentists' is debatable. Having said that, I liked this episode which was well acted (particularly Keith Downey as dentist John Yelenic) and reconstructed. The dentist being the victim was a twist one would expect in a fiction movie. Next up, a Lifetime movie 'based on real events'?
