tedlis Three episodes. Very little development of what is going on. First episode starts with the tired trope of a cop eating at a crime scene. Every episode has the government warning about contamination without explaining what the contaminant is. The public seems to accept this ridiculous assertion. I count these comments as spoilers even though I have no idea if any of it is relevant. I'd probably watch Episode 4 if it ever comes out just to see if anything develops.
Brandon Veracka Residue has all the makings of a great TV show. I strongly disagree with others who say it's unpredictable or too much like Misfits. Residue has a great pair of lead characters and some strong supporting roles. The concept--although familiar--is still rather fresh and shown from an interesting angle. Truthfully, the only major issue with this show is its resolution, or lack thereof. With more time to flesh out its story, as well as time enough to set up a proper ending, this would've been a great show.Even with that said, this is NOT a 2 out of 10 show; it just isn't. This is where my review ends and my gripe piece begins. On the subject of reviews here, I must say I find it both ridiculous and childish seeing ratings and angry reviews for this show of twos and threes. Five out of ten means average. All too often when a reviewer watches something that frustrates them, they leave a disproportionately low rating out of anger; that's not a review, that's a reaction, and it's overly subjective. A good reviewerror tries to stay neutral and therefore objective to the piece in question. I'm far more frustrated by the lack of any professionalism in reviews on IMDB than I am with good shows or movies that don't end well!
teresa-29148 Absolutely loved this. It is visually stunning, dark and beautiful. There is a slowness to the episodes which adds to a sense of dark mystery, almost creepiness. Each episode takes you on a journey into an elegant kind of fear and foreboding. I was very sorry to learn there were only three episodes. I would definitely like to see where this mystery is going.The mood and the tone of the show are excellent. The acting was superb. All in all I can't wait to see more.I would be very disappointed if this show was canceled. Also I think a bit of advertising would have helped.I was very surprised it just popped up with no previous pr.
flocompute I have seen this series a few times now and would whole heartedly recommend it for anyone interested in a exciting TV series with interesting characters including Jennifer (played by Game of Thrones star Natalia Tena) and helmed with style by director Alex Garcia (misfits, Utopia). It's superbly shot with great scale and is a step above recent UK TV releases. The mystery starts with a bang and the action doesn't let up from there. Amidst the chaos lie ethereal entities that could be tricks of the mind. Conflicts and corruption perforate every inch of the world and are a symptom of a society hurtling out of control. It's in this uncertainty that our protagonists are searching for the truth which could take them to the brink! I won't say any more but suffice it to say I can't wait for the 2nd season!
