The after-feeling is exhilarating. Every season, every episode, every character is crisp. The opening episode of each season hits like a typhoon hitting a loose door.

The opening episode of each season hits like a typhoon hitting a loose door. There are several moments throughout the season that will pull the landing off your feet. There are only limited shows which have this profound consistency. Jed Mercurio has pulled it off in style like no other. And if DSU Ted Hastings can't win you over time after time, you are bent (pun intended). Clearly an under-watched show. More reason to watch this since all the popular ones are over now. Waiting for the sixth season.… Expand

Only one word does justice to this TV series: "Excellent". Season 5 did not disappoint in that regard. Well written and well played.

Outstanding. Unbelievable writing, amazing acting. The writing is sooo good, it keeps you guessing, it surprises you even when you think you figured it out. All the seasons are connected and different and writers manage to keep you interestedOutstanding. Unbelievable writing, amazing acting. The writing is sooo good, it keeps you guessing, it surprises you even when you think you figured it out. All the seasons are connected and different and writers manage to keep you interested through it all, no holes in the script. Lotta great writing has gone into this. No weak link, everyone’s acting is top notch ( I think English actors are just brilliant) .
Bravo to the English for bringing such an entertaining Crime drama with Forensic and the whole Shebang. Love love, must see!!! I was sad it ended.… Expand

Good series, but the team often seems to overlook obvious leads in the cases, or come to them late in the game.

For me it's the greatest series of all time. Nothing compares. The writers have done miraculous work season after season. And the actors have done justice to their parts. Highly recommended.

I tend to like British shows...i love cop shows... Honestly this show is interesting on one hand and unbearable to watch on the other. There's never been a show with more unlikeable and barely tolerable people in every role. The mainI tend to like British shows...i love cop shows... Honestly this show is interesting on one hand and unbearable to watch on the other. There's never been a show with more unlikeable and barely tolerable people in every role. The main characters are despicable. The villains unlikely. The show could be so good but how could so many actors be so awful?… Expand
