    Suspend all your beliefs and "knowledge"

    It's a dark series. NO - it makes no logical sense because it is entertainment!

    I just went along for the ride and didn't try to figure anything out - but I never do. It's called "entertainment" for a reason. So entertain me. Otherwise it's called "class". Seriously, I do not watch things on TV to figure them out ahead of time so prove to everyone how smart I am. I don't have to. I know how smart I am, so entertain me and surprise me here and there, please! And this one did!

    There were some rough edges, but that's okay. At the end they were explained.

    It's different!! Enjoy!!

    Incredible

    I don't get why there are so many bad ratings and reviews on this. I thought this show was so good and the plot twist at the end was mind-blowing. It kept me guessing until the very end and even if you think you can predict what's gonna happen at the end, you can't. And then if you go back and watch it after knowing what happens there are so many clues and details to catch. I loved it and if you enjoy twist endings like I do then I definitely recommend watching. I wish I could watch it again for the first time. It's been at least a month since I finished it and I still can't stop thinking about it. One of the best shows I've seen in a while.

    intriguing but disappointing

    Behind Her Eyes is a decent story - up to a point - and well acted by Simona Brown, Eve Hewson, and Tom Bateman.

    I won't rehash the plot. I will say it keeps you guessing, and there are a few twists.

    However, at the very end, there is one twist too many.

    Also, I think people were misled and upended by what it was they were watching. They were expecting one genre, and it started that way - then it turned into another genre, and the people watching weren't necessarily fans of the second genre.

    Behind Her Eyes has very nice production values and good-looking people. The story could have been much stronger, and as far as the "twists," they should have quit while they were ahead.

    I have one word... Twisted!

    Want to watch a dark, twisted, thriller? This is it. A worthy watch for sure. Enjoy.

    Surely watch this, but pay attention!

    It has suspense, mystery, supernatural elements, all sorts of twists and turns. This show, that could be categorized as a slow burn, has only 6 episodes. You can tell that there's something wrong, that something doesn't add up, but you can't tell what. And they did a good job of wrapping all that into a package that kept me hooked and engaged. Good acting by everyone involved, decent music to keep the intensity up, very well shot, and they seem to jump back-and-forth in their storytelling which didn't feel choppy at all. When you start figuring things out, you're gonna be like "I did NOT see that coming!" Or at least "Why did I not see this coming!? The clues were RIGHT THERE!" Parts of the show, I thought were super predictable, until they weren't. But i had to wait until the end to find that out. And i wasn't disappointed at all. This show is a quick weekend watch, I'm glad that they decided to keep it to 6 episodes and didn't do 10. I'd recommend the show! Only, don't watch the show while you're doing something else. There will be clues here and there that you'd wish you had picked up as you start putting the puzzle together at the end. If you like shows with accents, you should surely watch this one
