Good Behavior

I absolutely fell in love with this show and that doesn't happen very often. It is well written, funny, has great acting, an original storyline. What's wrong here? I guess marketing? It is such a shame to see something this good being cancelled, because it didn't get the platform other series got. I'm very happy with the two seasons that have been released, but I have to say I'm sad, I was so looking forward to season 3.

I have watched right up to December, 2017, and the series just keeps getting better. It is hard not to invest a lot of emotional feeling into viewing this series. You want so much for Lettie to succeed and be happy, but it always seems to be a struggle for her. She deserves a family and happiness but she seems to self destruct at every turn. Her mother seems hard but has softened from the last series. Javier is a constant and she even tries to wreck that at times. They are good for each other and they really need the protection they afford each other. I believe her child should be with her because he needs to be and she is his mother. The acting is superb especially from Lettie played by the much loved character Lady Mary but this time in a much different role. The scripts are constantly refreshing and taking us down new paths which are the edge of the seat kind of ways. This is probably one of the best series in 2016 and 2017.

Not since Breaking Bad has a series caught my attention from the beginning. It's amazing how scary and tense and funny it has been in 3 episodes. The story is unpredictable and original and the lead character gets sympathy from the outset.

Michelle Dockery plays and ex con kleptomaniac on parole who gets caught up in an Argentinian assassin's schemes. It's a totally different role to Lady Mary on Downton Abbey. She displays a wide range of acting skills and emotions with different disguises. At first I didn't think her porcelain white skin and slim figure could be convincing in North Carolina but she is just so good it doesn't matter.

This is the best new drama of 2016 period.

Why have they not renewed this series? This is one of the best series that's been on TV since Breaking Bad! I love it!

TNT - RENEW THIS SERIES! YOU GUYS ARE IDIOTS IF YOU DON'T!

I'm just gonna say; if you don't renew this series, I personally will not ever watch anything on TNT ever again! Period!

I'm not sure that another TV series or film about low life psychopaths is really needed. In just the first episode we've seen killing, shooting, stabbing, vomiting, robbery, prostitution, and drug taking. We've got a husband who wants to kill his clueless wife, a mother who lost all visitation rights to her child, a mother who hates her daughter, and a well-meaning but incompetent parole officer. Through it all the self-help tapes of the main character ask her to be all she can be.

Putting aside the dreary and depressing portrait being created here, there are a lot of things to recommend it. The main asset is Michelle Dockery who played Lady Mary Crawley in "Downtown Abbey". She is simply marvelous, playing a host of emotions like she was playing a fiddle. She gets good support from Terry Kinney as her parole officer, Juan Diego Botto as a hit-man, and Lusia Strus as her unforgiving mother.

The photography is excellent as is the direction. The story line is aggressive, bringing us in and out of all kinds of different environments, but it is effective.

This series reminds me a lot of "Rogue" the 2013 TV series about an undercover female detective starring Thandie Newton. It also has character elements of "Saving Grace" (2007-2010) starring Holly Hunter. If you're attracted to these types of series, this one will appeal to you.
