While watching this I genuinely became confused. Is it broadly a series that highlights the vile racism that people of colour had to endure or is it a showcase for mental illness. As the series progressed 'Them' completely lost it's way and became a bit of a mess.
The acting is solid throughout and it is very well filmed but ten episodes is way too many and it starts to drag very badly. I actually felt like bailing out after six episodes but stuck with it and in the end I thought it was bang average with too many stories going on at once. The ending too was flat as a pancake. This was ambitious but tried to hard to be edgy and I also thought it tried to copy 'Twin Peaks' with it's strangeness but failed.
