Twisted

I was very curious about what might come out of Twisted, which is a kind of project that can both be fantastic and awful - depending on whether or not they pull off the mystery element of the series. And thankfully, it has. I find myself excited for each episode, because the show is fascinating and suspense (and twisted), and I feel that I HAVE to follow the process from beginning to end.

The murder mystery builds up to be quite the thriller. Danny is not the only one who seems to have an agenda with everything he does: Most of the characters look like they in one way or another have something to hide. Even though it does not have any explicit violence scenes, it sometimes still manages to be quite scary. The dramatic intrigues are well thought through and never boring.

The plot admittedly drives a lot of the show, but it is also important to have interesting characters in it to make it a bearable show, which it (again, thankfully) does. It has a complicated, mysterious main character that we immediately take pity in, and who we desperately wish is innocent, at the same time we know he has something to hide.

Avan Jogia is brilliant as Danny, as he manages to show huge vulnerability and a tortured soul behind the charismatic, witty, charming and sarcastic character he plays. Danny has more layers than ten onions, and Jogia covers them all with ease. Perfect casting from the showrunners there. Although the two female leads, Madelaine Hasson and Kylie Bunbury, have somewhat less to act on than Jogia does, they both deliver fine performances, and they also do have great chemistry with Jogia.

They are supported by a mostly good supporting cast. Ashton Moio is an absolute revelation as the show's much needed comic relief, who is loyal (if a bit awkward), but also somewhat vulnerable. Moio steals almost every scene he is in with his remarkable comic timing. Sam Robards is always a safe bet. However, I do feel like Denise Richards is terribly miscast. She seems uncomfortable in every single scene she is in.

I strongly recommend to give this show a chance, as it has set a solid plot with solid performances. I give it an 8 out of 10 based on the three first episodes, but chances are it will be even better from now on.

This was a very good series until episode 9. Now, as normally happens when they sign for a 2nd season, instead of giving a clever resolution and a clean ending to the plot, they start destroying the series by adding uninteresting confusing side stories to build up for some cliff hanger so that people keep watching a continuously confusing lackluster storyline. It's time to stop watching. And if I was the author of this story I would never allow ABC to destroy it. The person that invented this story and its rich characters has to be a very good script writer; why allow ABC destroy your stories? It would be better to sign just for one season and be recognized for your integrity and good stories. Hollywood corrupts people: you lower your standards little by little and pretty soon they will have your soul.

When two girls, Lacey and Jo, were playing in a garden, their best friend, Danny, came to them and he said "I've just killed my aunt".

This drama began when Danny was released from juvenile detention and entered school where Lacey and Jo go 5 years after this incident. Two girls are estranging each other. Jo had been annoyed at first she met him again, but they have returned to friends gradually. But Lacey tried to keep distance from him because she was scared of him as well as other students because of the incident. To make matters worse, that night he entered the best friend of Lacey, Regina, was killed.

The interesting points of this drama are that 1) Why did he kill his aunt. 2)Though the prime suspect in murder of Regina is Danny, did he kill her? 3) What will happen between Danny and the students who hates him and ridicule Jo, and 4) Danny seems good boy and doesn't seem hurt anyone else, but is he really sociopath?

I enjoyed this show so much, I miss it so much. This show isn't draggy at all like other shows like Pretty Little Liars, It was fun, it got to a conclusion and I just wish this show would come back, it wasn't even the chance . This show is fun , entertaining, a family show and just go fantastic. I got so into this show I felt like I was apart of it. There is so much junk on TV now but this show leaves. It makes no since Ugj I would do anything to have they start it back up again. I would watch this show faithfully and I know tons of people that would to. I am very disappointed and got to say this show Will definitely be on my Favorite TV show lists.

Twisted was another show full of potential, intrigues and twisted moments completed with nice and believable acting. Yes, it was full of soap opera teenish dramas and moments, but that was the aim of it at its core; yet to its credit, we had an intriguing storyline backed by marvelous plots and sub-plots.

• Avan Jogia alone was almost enough to keep your constant attention with his super cute face and smoldering look. His play was intense, his voice soft and his charismatic aura remarkable.
• Maddie Hasson was her true gorgeous self, weird in a good and talented way.
• The supporting cast were believable in a natural way and committed to the show.
• The plots shiny as far as they related to the series and a strong supporting backbone.
• The series' mischievous moments well developed and depicted.

To sum it up, we had (almost) all the drama and mystery that we wished for, with more to come, as new sub-plots and mischief were being revealed. Sadly, again, we were let down and shocked with cancellation, as we were preparing ourselves for a bright second season after the final episode's cliffhanger.

It was a very sad moment, with teardrops forming and rolling onto our cheeks and the great expectation to see our beloved cast again, whom we had so lovingly bonded with, burn up and go to dust.
