Well said. And I agree with you on all accounts.

This is NOT a remake of the original British series.
It’s based upon the book by Gillian Flynn the American author that wrote Gone Girl.
Yes there was a Brit series based upon this book. Good series but so is this
Had to move on after 15 minutes into the first episode. The filming was terrible; like a bad fandom movie. The acting, if you can call it that, was so lifeless and the dialogue…well I guess you get the idea. This doesn’t even come close to the UK production and quality. I’m a huge fantasy / science fiction fan and this was really disappointing.
Predictable, the same old story, girl gets run off the road then kidnapped. She escapes but then he tracks her down, she fights back and kills him, it’s been done so many times before. You know what comes next in every scene. She gets rescued by a kind older man and you know that any minute he is going to be killed and she will get recaptured.
I created an account just to leave a comment. While I’m a big fan of Katherine Ryan this show lacks in too many areas to be successful. The writing is God awful, the characters are one dimensional, and with the exception of the actors who play Olive and her dad every other actor lacks chemistry and/or talent. Katherine specifically as the lead is wanting of acting skills. Overall this is a waste of budget. Lackluster at its finest.
I agree with everything you said. She is just not funny. The opening scene with her approaching the parents outside the school was painful to watch. The acting terrible and the forced humor.
Watched one and a half episodes, that was enough. Didn’t enjoy it, not entertaining. I gave it one start out of 5
Not funny at all, terrible. Looks like old predictable humor from the 70s or 80s. Couldn’t the BBC find any comedy writers?
PS you really shouldnt listen to anything from channel 9 its for idiots :) much like the US fox network, owned by the same tabloid idiot, mr Murdoch, in fact :)
You mean CNN ? Fox News seems to be less sensational than CNN and gives viewers the other side rather than the left wing view from the other cable network.
This is terrible, what’s wrong with the acting? my wife and I didn’t know if it was a comedy or whether they were serious.
Then I realized that it’s just another one of these Canadian shows, they have to put out so much local content on Netflix. Get a couple of American B actors and film it in Canada………ouch
First of all the writers must think we are all pretty stupid. There is an Arctic research station and the main character gets his buddy to fly him up there in a helicopter from New York???…….lol seriously a small helicopter wouldn’t be able to fly more than 300 miles without a refuel.
I gave it two episodes……….don’t waste your time.

I did not get the impression that they were lovebirds. The only part of this movie I thoroughly enjoyed watching was when they were not discussing their relationship and the ridiculousness of the events that followed. I just did not feel the chemistry between these two that would make it believable that they were a couple.
Yes you are right and we have seen this same story over and over again.
A couple stumbles into a murder and bad cop scenario, they get chased by the police and the bad guys.
What is wrong with Hollywood writers? anything original?
oooohhh! This look fantastic? Going to check it out thanks uploaders. :D
Checked it out and Loved it!!!! Then requested links in forum for (2-6) with english subtitles since they all came out May 1st! :)
Some people actually thought this was good??
I thought it was laughable, the co-pilot with a bullet in his hand gets a passenger to help him take off. She has only flown helicopters but she shows absolutely no emotion like she’s on a video console, hey no problem………. then they land at an air force base coming in too fast but no problem they come to a stop a foot from a hanger?? the hangar is at the end of the runway?
The acting was terrible, I thought it was a comedy for awhile.
I will watch episode 2 just to see how ridiculous it is
I have to say wow too. Great acting, the girl was fantastic. Hope there is a season 2
This is bad! they send a small female police officer to Mallorca to pick up a gangster to take him back to the UK, by herself??? they are handcuffed together.
Then the bad guys take him out at the airport and she’s about to be shot and she’s saved by a German detective who is working in Mallorca …………………….of course he’s good looking, they dislike each other at first but then fall in love………………the usual boring police series with car chases, bad dialogue.
Terrible
Predictable, the usual stereotypes, looked promising but 10 minutes in you knew where it was going. Seen it all before. Should be on the Hallmark channel
Predicable stuff, the usual female cop/PI who is a renegade. She’s ex-military so she can take down guys that outweigh her by 150 pounds…………….the usual car chase with cars flying through the air. It’s all been done before
It’s a typical ABC/NBC/CBS/FOX series
So people rate this 5 Stars but it hasn’t been released yet?
come on people!! you don’t give a program starts if you THINK it’s going to be good
I couldn’t believe they televised public executions on live tv, then I realized this is DC Comics where anything goes……
This is a must see if you like these kinds of crime shows. Why is it that countries from Europe put out way better shows than Canada/US? I know Canadian shows USED to be bad but they’re not anymore. Denmark, Sweden, Norway, the UK, Spain, France etc. have amazing story lines and the actors aren’t all skinny or in great shape and beautiful. They’re more realistic and I like that too.
I like the Capture, good Brit drama.
But don’t say there are no good US shows, there are a ton of US shows that are very good and probably better than this - right now there is Power, Mr Mercedes, Mayans, The Deuce, Ray Donovan, Ozark a ton of others on US TV - I can list 50 or so…………..
Some great ones on NetFlix, have you seen “Unbelievable” ??? How about HandMaids tale?
So don’t say a few Brit shows are “way better”
I agree about Canada - all crap but they have to produce Canadian content so they put out amatuerish stuff, the best cdn actors go to the US
You have to feel sorry for John Cleese, he used to be funny and talented. This is just garbage and a waste of time for him, he’s not funny in this and just going through the motions.
Why the stupid laugh track??
More of a teen program and looks more predicatable than the TWD.
