The Terror (2018)
A Dark Voyage
So far I am up to episode 6 and am very annoyed that the show is barely watchable because of the lighting. It is so dark as to be nearly impossible to make out who is talking and what is happening. Add to this the overpowering volume of the music and sound effects and it does not make for a pleasurable viewing experience.
I will persist because the cast is so good but I hope that things get better or I won't make it. A star rating at this time would be premature.
Edit
OK, up to episode 9 and things are looking up.
Cuffs (2015)
Possibly the best Brtish Police series
I came across this show by accident, having not having even heard of it prior to my first encounter, and it took only a short time for it to be one of those "not to be missed" among the dearth of good television that blights us currently.
The cast is "magic" and work so well together. The interplay between characters is excellent and never overdone. The characters are well developed and believable and don't go around blasting all and sundry.
I especially appreciate the continuing back stories of the characters.
I now hear that the show has been axed - what a insult! Is CSI, Bones etc. the pap that people really want?
