    I really enjoyed this series, love the fact they used real dancers! The characters are very complex and Claire's story is sad as it unravels and is revealed. I think by the end of the 8 episodes she has found her strength and I would love to see where that takes her. I'd love to see more of the other characters background stories too as you don't really get to see it. I think they couldI really enjoyed this series, love the fact they used real dancers!

I like that it's dark and not your usual fluff you get on TV!… Expand

    Very intense and characters well achieved. Was very gripping from the first chapter. Was great to use a real ballet dancers. This series is awesome. I'd love to see more chapters.

    I enjoyed this series a lot. Interesting for those people who are tired of "the typical and romantic life", becomes very common in the series, and up are boring. I think I enjoyed it more because they are really ballet dancers.

    Uma minisserie intensa e forte, um tapa na cara de muitas pessoas. Mostrou o lado ruim das coisas, a que ponto o ser humano pode chegar para subir na vida, o lado ruim do ballet e toda a ganancia das pessoas. Sem falar que a serie mostrou a Sindrome da protagonista de uma forma incrivel, fazendo com que o publico entenda que isso é algo que acontece no dia a dia de varias pessoas

    It can be uncomfortable to watch. Though, there's no doubt it's a well-done drama. The performances across the cast are great, Sarah Hay and Ben Daniels shine the most.

    As a drama, Flesh and Bone is compelling and ripe for binge-watching.

    Unfortunately the end result is a cast of supporting characters that fall flat without the proper development, and a lead that never quite opens up to the audience.

    As Flesh and Bone unfolds, though, the story gets darker and more warped, not just for self-destructive Claire but also for the rest of the troupe.... All [of] this is frequently hard to watch, but also impossibly addictive.
