    The first HBO flop in some time. The storylines are predictable, the acting is atrocious and the whole follow through is over the top. Therapy can certainly be dramatic, but In Treatment only focuses on the dramatic, at the expense of nuance.

    Gabriel Byrne plays the part flawlessly, and he's up against tow especially rewarding talents. [1 Nov 2010, p.42]

    It all makes for lots of great soapy intrigue, and Byrne makes you believe he can solve everyone's problems. Except his own.
