The Night Of - Series Review
by iwantmycookies | created - 17 Jul 2016 | updated - 29 Aug 2016 | PublicSeason rating - 8.5-great
Highlight episode - The Beach
MVP - Riz Ahmed
With an amazing first episode and a poignantly, cathartic finale, this show was able to succeed in providing an excellent character study of Nasir and provided a bittersweet, tragic arc for him. The main case mystery wasn't the strongest and some subplots may have overstayed their welcome, but for the most part, this mini-series achieved all it set out to do.
