    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Intruders" might be my most favorite new show of 2014 (and I watch a LOT of TV). In the 8 episode series we meet a number of mysterious characters-- Jack, Amy, Rose, Richard, Madison, Marcus, etc. I had zero idea of what was really going on in the beginning. As a result I have watched each episode twice and analyzed them in minute detail (I know, I need to get a life). The acting is excellent (specifically Madison and the relationship between Jack and Amy). The atmosphere is perfect (the show is set around Seattle). I will not go into specifics because I dont want to ruin anything for anyone. But if you like a good mystery with a supernatural spin, I would highly recommend this show. Just keep an eye out for the number "9" and remember this phrase "what goes around, comes around".… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This pilot was just brilliant! Some people should read a book more often. This show is about transference of consciousness! It was obvious from the moment the first scene finished! Brilliant can't wait for the next episode!… Expand

    Loved the 9 year old girl played by Millie Brown. I have read the book and it also took a long time for the explanations to start appearing. To allow this show to be extended for several seasons, viewers will need to be patient

    Such a great show! I deeply loved the dark atmosphere all through out the season, it keeps you intrigued. The concept is so interesting and unique that I didn't mind not fully understanding what was going on. Patience is key in this situation. Can't wait for the next season!

    The show has got a very bleak tone and style. I am british and am glad to see John Simm in his first US tv series. He truly is a great actor and is probably the main reason I have watched this show. By the sixth episode you fully see why John Simm is in this. He gives a great performance. The whole cast is good the story at the beginning is a little confusing and demands attention andThe show has got a very bleak tone and style.

    Brilliant, brutal, brave television. Intruders is for people who can watch a complex story develop, gradually reeling the threads together for a gripping finale. Yes you won't get answers in the first or second episode, but in this age of instant access, isn't it nice to be in the dark for once? The answers will come, although you may not like them...

    Though some of it is effective, much of it is not, for all that it strong-arms the viewer with dark atmosphere and upsetting events. (Watch out for that cat.) It is, in its opening hours at least, a moody muddle.

    We know very little about any of the characters, and it's hard to care about them as they go about their doings under an ominous cloud of supernatural dread.

    Credit Morgan, the original source material of the book (there is some deviation, according to Morgan) and BBC America for crafting an instantaneously addictive piece of television.
