In the Dark (2017)
3/10
Can't believe this is getting any good reviews
6 February 2019
Come on people, no show should get 10 Stars. Even if you like it, 8 or 9 should be max. I can't believe the number of people giving this 10 stars. It's the lamest BBC show to come out in years. The things I disliked about this series: One, the lead actor was ridiculously pushy. To come into a strange police station and basically accuse everyone of being incompetent is ridiculous. And I hate pushy characters. In real life you'd tell them to take a hike, and g back where you came from. There was overwhelming evidence against the perp they arrested yet she, with absolutely no evidence, told everyone he was innocent. Two, the first story ended rather abruptly in the second show, with the lead getting a flash of insight and suddenly she knew who did it and it was basically over. Three, the story was filled with inaccuracies, like giving a woman in labour a drink. Never happens in case they have to operate. There was so many scenes where the police knew something important, told the lead character and then didn't do anything about it so she could be the one to investigate. Lame, lazy writing. There was a major revelation in the last show about the boyfriend having a secret folder on his iPad, and it was never resolved. The only bit I really liked was the infidelity. It was unexpected and added some needed drama.
