Season 2 Review: As demonstrated in series one, Baptiste’s writers Jack and Harry Williams have an impressive knack for drawing in an audience with intriguing yet vague story set-ups. Read full review

Season 2 Review: The mystery of what happened between the Chambers family kidnapping more than a year ago and the present day slowly builds, with the show’s writers, brothers Harry and Jack Williams, cleverly skipping between past and present. Read full review

Season 2 Review: The writers Harry and Jack Williams can be wilfully abstruse, here giving us the old split timeline device, which feels too much like hard work. ...

Season 1 Review: More a bacchanal of misery with an all-you-can-eat buffet of death, pain and trafficked girls. But the ray of light has been Tom Hollander's line in sarcasm as sweaty, unravelled, grief-ravaged Stratton. Without Hollander Baptiste would not have lured me beyond one episode. Read full review

I'm a Floridian. This is not the kind of show I tend to watch. I've seen 5 of the 6 episodes. Look forward to episode 6. Series starts confusing (but that seems intentional). Stays confusing for some time but I got Hooked. Amsterdam is a major character. I know it a little but it's beenI'm a Floridian. This is not the kind of show I tend to watch.

I know it a little but it's been awhile. Visually this is good (I'm confident saying that). The acting too is sticky. Some characters I´ll remember (I think)....… Expand

I enjoyed the first season, but when they started getting all woke in the 2nd season I couldn't finish it.
