Ten days in the valley

I found it very very weird almost premonition like that she was wearing a Tom Petty Shirt and then talking about a "Casino Massacre" as a possible episode subject. The same evening this premieres and there was the Las Vegas Massacre and then the next day Tom Petty passes... So flippin weird!

This series increases in suspense and character development with each episode. In spite of varying reviews, I hung in because I love Sedgwick and came to appreciate other characters, like Christianson and Agbaje. It seems fractured and unfocused in the beginning, but morphs into something else altogether. All of a sudden you can't tell who's a good guy and who's a bad guy. If you like suspenseful thrillers, this is a good one.

after the end of the first episode there are many questions to be had answered here 'who took then little girl is the father really as bad as he seems ' and I am personally loving the show myself and I cant wait to see more of it I am a single straight man yet this has really grown on me in even just the first episode I say ignore the bad reviews give the show a chance for yourself before deciding on whether to love or hate it but I love it

I thought this series was about a missing child but after just watching the pilot episode it will not take you long to see the camera rarely wavers far from Kyra Sedgwick as she portrays a TV crime screen writer named Jane Sadler who is recently divorced, and seems to love her drugs in the form of pills and powder, wine, job, and then time permitting, her daughter in this order.

The series has a decent cast which includes Erika Christensen, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Ali Liebert, Felix Solis and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje but even the cast gets little to no face time with the camera focusing almost all the air time on the (well past done) Kyra Sedgwick. In 2015 Kyra starred in a drama/thriller titled Big Sky that was panned by the critics who stated the film lacked tension.

So what does Kyra do to rebound from her 2015 film stinker? She gets involved in a ten (10) part TV series so that we the audience can feel sorry for a somewhat hard working TV crime screen writer who is hooked on pills, coke, wine and her job until the wee hours of the morning, and neglects her young daughter who goes missing.

I intend to watch the next few episodes but if the camera continues to stay focused on just Kyra Sedgwick as it did in the first episode I will be quickly switching to another channel as I would prefer to watch Kyra in re-runs as Brenda Leigh Johnson in the 2005-2012 Closer.

As for Ten Days in the Valley, so far one day was enough for me. I give it a 4 out of 10 rating.

Compared to everything else that's on TV these days, the show in my opinion is holding its own. There are a lot of twists and turns in the plot. It truly keeps you guessing as to who took Jane's child. It evolves at a nice pace during each episode. The characters evolve as well. So my suggestion is to stay tune and wait for the outcome. You all may be pleasantly surprised. I know I will.
