Safe is about a family living in a sort of a community. After the loss of his wife, he is trying to move on with his daughters and new girlfriend. But everything falls apart when is daughter turns out missing after a party, and everyone seems to have one small bit of a puzzle, which is otherwise also connected to a mysterious shared past.
Michael C Hall plays the father who was never there, and is now desperately searching for his daughter in a series that brilliantly merges flashbacks with strong storytelling. Besides Hall, the supporting cast is amazing as well.
The minus, is the stupidity that appears more and more. Decisions like confronting bad people alone, instead of informing the police, thrusting unknown people and not your own family, not recognizing blatant lies etc. etc. All this is used to create tension and momentum, but wouldn't it be refreshing if series depended less on stupid decisions and find more creative ways to expand a story? Still, this series is interesting and exciting and absolutely worth a watch.

I liked it. It's nice to see a series that has a head and a tail, that doesn't leave you in limbo at the end, vaguely aiming at possible sequels. Here we start with a murder and a disappearance in episode 1, and every next episode brings new clues (alongside new questions), so that more and more the mysteries get solved. While the script (by creator and famous thriler-writer Harlan Coben) keeps you on the edge of your chair until the last minutes of the last episode!
The acting is - as in any other British detective series - flawless by every character, up until in the smallest parts. But Michael C. Hall (Dexter, Six feet under) really stands out as the concerned, frustrated and gradually exasperated father who desperately tries to find his daughter, behaving in the process as a bull on the loose in a china-shop. Co-star Amanda Abbington is also great, but I kept being a bit distracted by her weird haircut. And special mention of the actors that played the family Marshall, who were very funny!
Greatly recommended!

This series had me hooked after episode one which is rare for me. It reminded me a great deal of Broadchurch in relation to the twists and the possibility that anybody could be the perpetrator(s).
Some strong acting really drove the suspense and it was nice to see M C Hall's strengths as an emotional actor which is the complete opposite to his character in Dexter.
Overall I would give this an 8 out of 10. It kept me entertained and I watched all episodes in one sitting. My only slight grief I can not explain without spoilers so will leave it there.
Give it a go if you liked Broadchurch.

I loved the series although MC Hall's British accent was awkward! The series gets nicely complex until Ep 6 when the underlying thread becomes evident and thus predictable ending even the final twist was seen a mile away. That said, it doesn't take away from viewing as it still engrossing albeit you know how it will end.
It is also clearly a British production which is far superior to any US broadcast network junk one sees on major networks.
All in all I recommend watching it
It's not a bad show....the acting is better than average. Dexter is good. The end is a twist....honestly I liked it and I'm tired of picking shows apart....I binge watched it in two days and I enjoyed it all...
It's not the best plot but it keeps you guessing....character development is rapid and fails in many ways...
