The Crow Girl

I wasn't sure about this series after EP 1. But things got going after that and what a ride it was.

I thoroughly enjoyed the crow girl. It really held me.

The series has quite a few things going on at once. You've got misdirection and red herrings thrown in for good measure.

The leads are excellent. Support is very good too.

Maybe the most unconvincing is the doctor but there's a reason for that.

The series avoids getting bogged down in internal and family politics. Yes there's some in there but they never get intrusive.

I'm Really looking forward to the second season.

I originally thought it was a self contained one off series.

Thankfully it's not.

Can't wait for season 2.

I think this is really another great, British detective series. Yes, some of it we have certainly seen several times before (the police officer with a troubled personal life, conflicts with the boss etc etc....). But I still think this one ranks among the best in the category.....the acting is absolutely top class from all actors, the story develops in a suspenseful way and for the final twist.....I really don't understand all the negative comments on that? Personally I had never seen it coming? My only concern is that I can see a season 2 is already planned, and I'm afraid that one will just be "milking" the story rather than adding something really new (as the plot is already to some extend wrapped up now I'd say)......but we will of course have to wait and see about that...:-)

Complicated in an unintelligent confused way that played like the writers made it up as they went along, then suddenly realised they needed an ending. An ending unsupported by the previous chaotic episodes trying to make several different stories into one and failing to tell any completely.

Filled with frustrating slow scenes of characters badly acting struggles with inner demons which any responsible adult would be able to dismiss in a breath.

Disappointing and obvious,boring at times, shallow drama belonging on daytime TV if anywhere.

The very annoying thing about this kind of show is like the dentist, you have to suffer to get to the result or ending, just bad but gripping enough to make me want to see what Happens next.

Dark and gripping, Crow Girl is a murder mystery series that masterfully blends grim themes with sharp, intelligent writing. I think the show captures the city of Bristol's eerie charm as a perfect backdrop for a tale of betrayal, corruption, and deeply flawed characters. The writing is razor-sharp, full of unexpected twists that never felt forced. The show delves deep into the psyches of its leads, crafting complex, often harrowing arcs that resonate long after each episode ends. Equal parts chilling and captivating, Crow Girl is a must-watch for fans of atmospheric crime dramas. Couldn't recommend it more.

I'm ok with a slow burn start as the characters aee introduced and the initial mystery is laid out . I'm ok with twists and turns as characters react to events and reveal their strengths, weaknesses and secrets.

I'm not ok with characters who do stupid things for plot reasons, especially in the last episode, which is an absolute mess and undermines much of the work done getting us there.

The Big reveal is largely telegraphed, but is one of the few things that makes any sense.

And of course the dreaded To Be Continued appeared as the screen faded to black.

I wont be holding my breath for season 2.
