The Returned

PLEASE PLEASE BRING THIS SHOW BACK! No one cares that it is a remake. I hate when people don't like shows because of that reason (for example US Skins another great canceled show.) I loved this like the US Shameless which did very good. I don't like the original version of this at all. But this show left you wanting more and more.Everyone did a great job acting in this show and due to the fact you don't have to constantly read the subtitles you can catch the whole story. I need to know what happens. Why would Netflix bring this out? They should buy the rights and continue with the series. There is really nothing more I can say except snobs need to get over it, so many remakes have been done in America and so many remakes have been done of American movies and or shows.

My partner & I loved this series. We eagerly waited for each weekly episode release on Netflix.

We got several of our friends hooked on this show too. After seeing every episode an wanting more, we obtained the french older version once shown on channel 4 which although was OK we preferred this version an really wished they has carried on with more seasons of this show. As this version is very watchable an better than a lot of stuff on TV. The acting is superb, Drama is gripping People cast in the roles are well suited to their characters. Not too much violence or swearing just good acting with a good plot and good scenes an sets.

I loved the first few episodes, the opener in particular, it was fantastic, absorbing, interesting, and it had you asking a load of questions, such as, 'were the returned back to punish?' 'What would you do if you came face to face with somebody you'd grieved for? and 'Why was that kid so creepy?

I must admit my interest did fall off a little towards the end, some things were dragged out a little too much, some of the characters became a little uninteresting.

It shouldn't have been cancelled, up until about part six you're treated to some compelling viewing, there was definitely more material in this show, Jeremy Sisto's character Peter was very interesting.

I'm sure fans feel short changed by its early finish, but honestly, half way through it ran out of steam after a hugely promising start. 6/10

Although the need for an American version may be unnecessary to many people it's obvious that the average American, whoever they are, does not like sub-titles. Or anything that's foreign come to think of it. Sofie Gråbøl echo'd this point when she said that she couldn't see the need for the US version of The KiIlling, Forbrydelsen in the original Danish TV series, and could only assume that Americans didn't like sub-titles. This is another example of a great foreign TV series being transform into an American one. I have watched a couple of episodes and it isn't too bad. Well it's better than most of the rubbish that's made so I've got to give Netflix some kudos for at least bringing it to an American audience. Of course it should have been the French original that was sufficient but it would mean that more people in the US would have to start reading sub- titles and, come to think of it, it would also be a good idea to stop complaining about English accents when they originate outside the USA. In the USA it's a ratings game, more so than in the UK or other countries it seems, so for the American reviewers who have been negative it's your own country folk that are to blame for the "need" to create these cloned series. The Returned has only just started so at least give the show a chance.

I binged on this show. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen and in the end I was screaming, ready to watch season 2. I saw that it wasn't there so I decided to check up on it on google. My heart broke a little when I saw it was canceled as this is definitely a new favorite show. :( You can't end it on a cliffhanger!! That's just mean :( We need to bring this back! I need to see how this end and how it affects everyone's lives! Please!! Bring. It. Back! Why would you even cancel it in the first place?? It got two nominations and from what I can see most people loved it! It's such an exciting show and the characters are very interesting! I feel like I've gotten to know them so well!
