Almost painful to watch
dierregi13 January 2024
During the past few weeks I followed the whole 7 series, one episode per night. This series it's gripping and almost too tough to watch, but I'm glad this is the last series because, despite my liking for the realistic take, it starts to be too much.

Too much drama and coincidences, like Shane being robbed in the past episode and Vic able to find 100.000$ in less than one day. Also, Corrine is way too compliant and made to be "hated", just like Skylar was in Breaking Bad.

Yes, Vic is a murderer and a liar who cuts corners all the time, but Corrine is a traitor, which is not much better from a moral point of view. I wish the writers would have found a way to make Vic fall without using the wifey.

PS and I totally don't get why Catherine Dent gets top credits, having been invisible for a couple of series and irrelevant in this last one. Besides, her character is another mighty mess. Why would Danny have a child with someone she hates and despise? Isn't she aware of contraception? And that plot line of Vic insisting to be involved with Danny's child is also annoying.
