To me, the plot is plentiful and a series that is progressing all the time. They have shown a very important event in the first part of the season, for example, while they are not influencing at all in the series of season openings. In addition, they are putting everything right in the middle of applying the event knot to the point of extending the box, which is a good thing for me not to get tired of watching the series. As long as it continues in this way, how many seasons will continue to be watched from my perspective

There might be spoiler content below.After such a promising start, it came as a terrible disappointment to see the story degenerate into a second-rate soap opera. It seems living in the Hamptons means you can just walk into anyone's home at anytime, listen to private phone calls, and you must have a gun handy at all times.If only the Wachowski's had taken over production after the big wedding. After that it became a series of laughable, unbelievable stories, especially when David comes back after 20 years. As the World Turns - look out!All in all I highly recommend you walk away after Season 2. Pity.

Seemingly, ABC allowed those that collaborated on the hit TV series 'Revenge', to do so by simply getting out of the way and allowing a group of very talented writers, actors, editors, directors and everything in-between. Heck, even Helen Hunt directed a couple of episodes (yes, that Helen Hunt).And, as likable (and/or) distasteful, as each actor commits to their individual roll (wholeheartedly), the writing for Revenge conjures up the age old question of what came first here, the chicken or the egg?This was a TV show that my wife and daughter began watching months ago on Netflix & it held very little interest or intrigue personally, but we all ended up pleasantly surprised.

Certainly much of the acting is great. The premise is great. The settings are wonderful and the people look amazing, the photography is great, lighting wonderful with warm sunsets. Except, it gets tiresome to see moneyed people flaunt their wealth. It usually means someone else has paid for it on minimum wage. Much of the evil skulduggery is based on hacked web cams and computers. It is truly surprising that with all the personal "security" and tech these wealthy people must have at their disposal, why hasn't anyone figured out that the dirty secrets come from hidden cameras? The truly wonderful part of the whole series is the leading lady, Emily. She is a never ending ray of sunshine. And furthermore, she is Canadian! Not jaded by the Hollywood world, ever poised, and terrifying at the same time.Having now finished watching the whole series, it does end with suspense and love. You know the ending you want, but wonder if the writers will make it come true. Emily just gets better. My only criticism is that it starts to play like an Italian opera with everyone getting killed or dying at the end (apart from the good guys). Why is it that only the good guys survive the shootings, stabbings and mayhem? Also, I can't get passed the conveniences that keep the story running. People who conveniently overhear others, security that works for one but not another. Also Emily's dad's death is also a bit convenient as a tear jerking moment. Just for fun, when watching Emily do her training, notice how she is facing away from the camera and her back muscles seem to come and go. Can you say double?
