winter_avenue Awful. I didn't expect the show to tell me everything in one episode. I am quite patient, I don't need everything figured out at once. Heck I even watched Lost without knowing what was going on to the very end, throughout all the seasons. But you know what I did expect? I expected to be intrigued. I expected to be guessing what was going on, trying to figure it out. I expected some thrill and fear of what was going to happen next. Instead, I watched 3 episodes, trying to cope through the dreadful boredom of the plot, hoping it would get better. It did not. I am done. I would not recommend watching this show. I am surprised it has such a high rating.

lucafgamberini I really don't know where to start, so to be brief (this won't be brief at all) I'll say that it is not worth any time. Actually here's a fun example of why not to watch it (BTW this is a tiny conversation spoiler): There's a bit where the main character finds his wife in a room by herself listening to jazz and he's all like, "Hey Amy, you never listen to jazz, what has gotten into you?" and then he acts all surprised and sad, I mean maybe his wife wanted to listen to jazz, maybe she felt enclosed in their horrid relationship and thought " I know what will make my husband wretch, me listening to jazz!". I felt that throughout the whole series that I should continue to watch as it might get better, and yes I do admit that I was slightly hooked, but only because it had potential (that was not used). The acting was a load of b*ll*cks: there was that little annoying girl who was mean't to be bad-ass but totally was not, she could not act for sh*t and certainly was not cut out to be the menacing character that was proposed to her. Then there is the only famous guy (John Simm) who is a good actor but for some reason can't pretend to be someone else for a 3.5 million worth series. Now the one person who I can happily settle for being a good actor was that weird man who was a mix between Lou Reed and Johnny cash (James Frain) but all he had to do was look cool and hold a gun and shoot people. This a completely different topic to acting, but there's a bit where some guy is like, "I built a ghost machine" in a dumb voice and it makes me want to laugh my head off and shoot my foot at his poor acting skills. I know I'm no better actor, but y'know i paid for this sh*t so I should get my £12.50 per months worth, or i could have just bought a Kebab which would be far more enjoyable, worth my time and better at acting. I could go on, and I will. Next up is the terrible story line (WHAT WERE THEY THINKING). I would love to sink my teeth into what could have the potential to be and epic and awesome story. That would have been the real bee's knees but NO! All I get is some confusing story that still after 9 episodes (the whole freaking series) I don't completely understand! Maybe what the producers were going for was a puzzle that the audience could piece together with time but none of it makes any sense. So much could be resolved with guns and death. I can't be f*cked to go on any longer but you get the just and I'm p**s*d off. So then to conclude, don't watch it, tell your wife to not watch it, tell your friends, family, cat, if you see it on you T.V. then run a good long bath, lie in it and drop a toaster in it. I really insist you do as much as you can to avoid this waste of a show. Do you know what could have been done with the 3.5 mil dollars? Feed a family? Cure Ebola? Educate the poor? Buy me some more time to replace those seven hours wasted? Anyway i'll leave you with a piece of advise, watch Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, not really related but none the less a great film.

Prismark10 I was intrigued by Intruders. Its co-produced by BBC Worldwide, with several British actors such as John Simm doing a US accent but the girl playing Madison, (Millie Bobby Brown) is outstanding but I felt Mira Sorvino was wasted.Intruders is adapted by Glen Morgan, one of the star writers for The X Files. When his wife Amy Whelan (Mira Sorvino) disappears, her husband a former LA cop Jack Whelan (John Simm) goes in search for her and discovers a secret society that has discovered a way to cheat death as their souls take over other people's bodies. It looks like Amy is not who Jack thought she was.Madison O'Donnell a little girl who is on the run as she tries to escape an assassin who is also a shepherd for the secret society as the souls leave and enter the various bodies.The show starts dense and stays that way and frankly gets worse as the series goes on. Its rather disconnected as we follow various characters and confusing because some of the characters have had multiple lives. The little girl, Madison is also inhabited by a murderous old man who is fighting over her soul.The series tanked in the ratings in the UK where it failed to gain a foothold. It seems even British viewers failed to be swept up with this supernatural series because it was adamant to stay dark and dense.

SnoopyStyle There is a secret society which has beaten death by taking over other people's bodies. Amy Whelan (Mira Sorvino) disappears. Her husband former LAPD detective Jack (John Simm) goes in search of her and starts finding clues to the secret society. Little girl Madison O'Donnell (Millie Bobby Brown) goes on the run escaping the clutches of the murderous assassin Richard Shepherd (James Frain).There is a dark disconnected nature to this show. Rather than one or even a group of lead characters together, this show follows several characters all on their own separate journeys. There are some connections over time, but it remains disjointed. The pacing is extremely slow. Any excitement is diffused quickly. Then there are the characters. Essentially, every character is playing another character. There is a mask drawn over all of these people. It distances these characters from any natural emotions. Mira Sorvino is doing one-note acting. James Frain is probably the best as the vicious cold assassin. I think he has some fun with this character. The little girl is awkward and the blame is all on the writing. She is trying to switch-act between old guy and sweetie girl. She's also given really stiff lines to deliver. "What goes around, Comes around." When that line was first delivered, I had to shake my head to make sure that she actually said it. It's not threatening. It's not powerful. It's laughable. Over the first 8 episodes, there is only one good show where Jack and Amy reunite. Their reunion is electric from start to finish. However one good episode out of eight is not nearly enough. After finishing the first season, I doubt I will continue even if the show gets renew.
