Just finished Scoop on Netflix After SCAM this is must watch. Karishma tanna is superb in her role. Total episodes- 06 I bet every episode will set you to the edge of your seat. Episodes are interesting there is no dram no romance just a pure classic story of a journalist played by Karishma Tanna. Watch it on Netflix it's a superb web series to watch on this weekend. Karishma Tanna is so natural actor she is like hidden gem as we have always seen her working in tv daily shows never thought she will be this much fit in web serieses like this. Hope to see Karishma Tanna in more web series like this in future.
After the brilliance of Scam (the Harshad Mehta series on sony liv), my expectations from this Netflix series were high. It's not quite there, probably because of a different (and less glamorous) plot (nothing comes close to Rags to Riches to crash story of Harshad Mehta). But nevertheless, quite an intriguing series that kept me hooked for the most part of it. The protagonist is a strong impactful character played very well by Karishma Tanna. There were episodes during jail ordeal that were exaggerated and elongated, but other than that a well made series that shows the dark side of journalism. Watch it for the strong performances of Karishma and Zeeshan; and the strong storytelling of Hansal!
Reading the many positive reviews and seeing the high average rating, I decided to watch this six episode series, based on true events.
At the end I was left disappointed . A closer look at the reviews reveals that many reviews are from people from India. India not only has a great film industry, but - as it turns out- also an army of people that tend to overrate films from their country.
Scoop does not suffer from poor acting, poor dialogues, sound or cinematography. On the contrary, these aspects are way above average and if they were the only factors to base judgment on, it would probably deserve 9 or 10 stars.
However, at the core of each series lies a story and - most importantly - the way it is told. The true events behind this series could have lead to a great series. However the scenario is a complete mess. The only aspect that remains upright is the tragic story of a journalist who is wrongfully detained. Everything else related to this (corruption of the police, ties between government and criminals etc.) remains largely in some sort of chaotic darkness. Maybe the true situation at the time was very complex. If that is the case then the scenario writer has the task to create some clarity so that the viewer is able to tell in a few sentences what it is about. No way the average viewer would succeed at doing this. There's just a garbage bag full of people, connections, names, events, interests etc., but never will you get the complete picture as a viewer.
For failing to tell the complete story in a clear and accessible way and leaving viewers in the dark as to important facts, I cannot rate this with more than 6 stars., Worse is that because of this failing scenario the case this series wants to make for freedom of press and against corruption weakens.
It still might be worth you while though.

Scoop - Based on true chilling events in the world of journalism, Mumbai police and underworld. It comes with heavy dosage of speculation and thoughtful narrative, and takes journalists into a dangerous game. Story is gutsy and well narrated. Also complex with neatly woven intent. Karishma Tanna has done a commendable job with confidence, emotions, sadness and fighting spirit. Zeeshan and Harman has supported really well. A bit slow, but built in a methodical way, with crisply executed crime story. Go for it on Netflix as the web series takes audience in this ride with power, grit, politics, mafia with strong characters.
The story is power. Binge worthy for sure. Will bring out all kinds of emotions in you. But if you want to watch it for one reason then it has to be Karishma Tanna. Freaking outstandingly awesome she is. Makes me wonder how did the industry waste her talent all these years. The supporting cast also brilliant, especially mohd Zeeshan Ayub and the actor who portrayed Jagtap. Also do let me know in case you recognise Harman Baweja!! Another good part of this series is that it's 6 episodes only and not the traditional 8-10 episode web series which always are dragged and can have a smaller runtime .
