Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
White Lines has been hyped as the hit of the summer, and even though it will not be the summer any of us were expecting I’d be surprised if this lurid, swirling, fantastically confident creation didn’t hit the spot. Its energetic brio and the escapism-cum-nostalgia-trip (via a soundtrack stuffed with the Happy Mondays, the Farm, Radiohead and all points in between), may be even more rapturously received under current conditions than it would otherwise have been.

Season 1 Review:
Its avalanche of ludicrous double-crosses, carnal entanglements and long-buried revelations is matched by performances that are uniformly overcooked, with no scene left wanting for furious outbursts, longing gazes, intense introspection or flashes of violence. ... There is no subtext, only blunt, simplistic text. ... But it’s rarely boring, which in the end seems to be the only real goal of this tawdry, titillating affair.

Season 1 Review:
The good stuff is stretched far too thinly and The plot loses its way around the midway point. Several twists in the home stretch are highly implausible. The revival of a long-dormant drug-smuggling storyline smacks of desperation. Characters undergo personality transplants or sexuality switches. The sudden introduction of a “fight club” subplot is flat-out laughable.
