Beautifully acted, beautifully written, visually and audibly beautiful, beautifully experimental and innovative. This series was obviously a labour of love for everyone involved.
People like what they like; but it is sad to see such an accomplished piece of work so under-appreciated. It currently has a user rating of 6.4. Many lesser, run-of-the-mill, formulaic, unambitious, lazy productions earn higher user ratings than this. I see some reviewers rating this show with 1 and 2 stars. Not only is this ridiculously unjustifiable; but in today's climate (with production companies/streamers struggling financially), these kind of ratings will probably be interpreted as reasons to not take a chance on funding more ambitious, artistic projects such as this one.
I remember The White Lotus having similarly ridiculously low ratings after the first few episodes. Gladly, the critic's enthusiasm filtered through and the show became successful; resulting in further wonderful season(s)!
I just wish people would rate sensibly. It's fine if you don't like something, but it doesn't mean it deserves 1 star because it didn't hook you after 15 minutes. Either give productions a considered rating or don't rate at all!
I'm ranted out now!
Dead Ringers is a riveting, weird, shocking and delightful series. Beautiful TV. If you appreciate an artistic approach to TV production, you will love this.
Thank you to the writers, actors, production team and Amazon Prime.
