Sep 8, 2018This show started good..and then began its descent into oversexed and perverse chaos like so many other recent short-lived series. There may be enough people devoted to such amoral trash to watch this one for a while, but if you want to see something to remind you of that which is good and worthwhile without garbage over and over again, avoid it.

At times, this lack of establishing a sense of place and motivation makes the series feel unmoored, but the action moves along rapidly all the way up to its last-minute sick twist.
-
It’s the kind of show where every element feels directly lifted from another Netflix hit and mashed up into a slightly awkward creation. ... The series is loaded with strong performers, and Groundsell and Ascott are plausibly charming and naive as the innocents of the show’s title.

When the action takes us to Norway, where pearlescent clouds conjure the sullenness of Scandinavian noir, The Innocents tends to grow maddeningly stagnant, as if the show had built in longueurs for the convenience of viewers itching to divert their attention to other screens. In England, where Harry and June find time for soul-searching chats on casual strolls while fleeing both Steinar and their parents, its easy tempo feels more purposeful.
