I cannot even begin to express how much I adore this show. It is so entertaining and enthralling, it was fun but also intense at times, with so many near-miss moments to keep you on the edge of your seat. The characters are all amazing (which for me made it fun-stressful to watch because so many crazy things happen to the characters so I was always on edge waiting to see if they would make it out of the dangerous situation they were in). June Harris was a wickedly clever character that I thought really added something incredible to the show, as I was always so shocked at how her plans seemed to go exactly as she intended (some people would say this is unrealistic in the show but I see it as she is very good at reading people and the reason her plans worked so well is that people reacted exactly as she expected them to, I mean there's a reason she was able to pass herself off as a psychologist so well). Overall I would recommend this show to anyone who loves a bit of drama and intensity in their sci-fi, and loves some wonderfully written characters!

I honestly think this is one of the best shows on television right now. I absolutely love the good wife so I was super excited when they announced a spin-off, and they didn't disappoint. It's different enough to be its own thing whilst also having the similarities so that it's still a style of show that I enjoy. I love the representation and broad range of characters, I love seeing Diane in a different kind of environment, and I love how uncensored and abrasive it is. They don't hold back with their attack on their view of what the US has become (including Trump), and for me each episode is so entertaining and so fast-paced and brutal. This show is incredible

I agree that there are some issues with this show, for example there wasn't much mystery around the murderer, they revealed who it was and also the larger conspiracy behind it too quickly for me. But aside from its flaws I actually really enjoyed this show a lot. There were a lot of really interesting characters (eg the lesbian priest and her Asian girlfriend) that maybe weren't necessary but it there stories were entertaining to watch. I loved Carey Mulligan and Billie Piper's performances, and I just found it to be an entertaining show! I was never bored, I was always intrigued. I can agree that there are better British crime shows out there, but for me this wasn't nearly as bad as everyone in here is saying.

I found this film incredibly disturbing and also extremely entertaining. Not a lot happens in the first half of the film, but I wasn't bored; for me it added to the suspense as I was waiting for something really freaky to happen. The characters' reactions to their experiences in the shimmer really added to the movie as it made you really feel the intensity of what it would be like to be inside the shimmer. Some people have said that the film makes no sense and nothing is resloved, which is partly true, so maybe don't watch this film if that sort of thing bothers you. Personally I love films like that, where you never truly know what's going on but it is entertaining all the same, and requires you to think a bit more or even to decide for yourself what might be happening. I was in the grips of the film from the beginning, and I can tell you I'll be thinking about this film for a while.
