Well I was enjoying this and all involved like but the parents backstories are strangely tedious and uninvolving.

Or it's puerile humour with little substance and a plot device that's mostly used for cheap laughs - you say tomato and I say tomayto

Puerile humour, if that's your sort of thing dive in - if not you'll know why it's under 8 already and won't bother.

Well my curiosity didn't last the first episode - not my bag just felt grimy and nasty for the sake of being grimy and nasty.

English slang like - Old Bean, Old Chap etc.

Wut? The autopsy bits are intense the rest of it is just lazy ass caricatures that make little sense.
How can top of her class could have been a judge, loved crime dramas Prosecutor not even know the basics of a crime scene?

Cheers old stick that saved me some anger and wasted time.

Binged the first few episodes and enjoyed it went back the next night and it was a load of rubbish.
Suspend your critical faculties and binge it in one go is my advice, if you leave any time for thinking you'll be going "WUT??"

Tried it again and dropped it again, tedious. The best bits are the groups of friends chatting and that isn't enough to make me keep watching.

You should be able to edit your review and change the score top right where it shows completed there is a little drop down arrow

Ouch

This could so easily have been so much better, still worth a watch though.

Unfortunately it's more about insecurity than attractiveness to (insert gender of choice) so as you say other people showing concern has little effect.

From looking at the poster to watching the drama I thought they had changed actresses, apparently not. I found it too much of a slog to keep watching even the whole ghost angle was somehow mundane.

Not for me I'm afraid, I put off watching it for ages because I'm not a 'historical' drama fan - I like some realism in history and action dramas and they rarely deliver. This is all very pretty with some fun set pieces but evoked little to no emotion, a few guffaws at the wrong moments but not much else.

I made it to episode 6 on my first attempt back in 2021 perhaps that's why?

I couldn't remember why I dropped this so I thought I'd try it again. 2 episodes in and I'm already bored and the only character I like is the crazy celeb.

Archery as a basis for unarmed combat which is slightly less silly...
but still silly.

Well that saved me some wasted time and irritation, thanks.

I look forward to reading your reviews as they often say quite insightful things but in the style of a Meths drinking tramp doing stream of consciousness rap - a juxtaposition I find quite fascinating.
