    A "whodunnit" to start off 2018 right, you'll need to put the phone down to follow the plot on this one.

    I watched the "linear" version from HBPO, not the app version. Good acting, interesting ambivalent and contradicting characters and interesting not off the shelf storytelling.

    I've watched this series twice and it's excellent. Gives you everything you could want from a Detective TV series - except an ending on a silver platter. Soderberg builds a muddy plot filled with testimonies, evidence, facts, prime suspects and motives. The story also delves into human memory and leads the viewer down a path where they must decide whether memories presented are real orI've watched this series twice and it's excellent. Gives you everything you could want from a Detective TV series - except an ending on a silver platter. Soderberg builds a muddy plot filled with testimonies, evidence, facts, prime suspects and motives. The story also delves into human memory and leads the viewer down a path where they must decide whether memories presented are real or whether they are possibly imagined. The theme of memory in the story is a big one - and kind of reminded me of the study done on flashbulb memories in 1988 with the space shuttle Challenger crash. If you like thinking and enjoy sleuth/detective series - look no further.… Expand

    At any given time, it’s both a dazzlingly experimental work and a totally conventional murder mystery. It’s frank and secretive, flooding viewers with information without giving them the tools to make sense of it. The story has multiple different paths to follow, but they all end up in the same place. Less a show than a television experience, it’s brilliant and exasperating.

    At worst, this is a familiar, “Broadchurch”-esque experience, complete with great performances and writing as precise as a whip. At its best, however, it’s a new way to experience a familiar story, and so when the answers you expect arrive, they’re somehow new, too.

    This one gains momentum as it moves along, and ultimately is an absorbing exploration of the complexity and incertitude of human relations.
