Avis à la une
Whoever wrote this script did little or no research of the British Legal system. All the jail scenes do not show Briish jails but Hollywood American jail furnishings. Barristers at law do not prowl the front of the court but plead standing behind their podiums and read from their briefs. In British law you can not ' plead the fifth' . British rules of Sub Judecie forbid any discussion of a case especially in the press once a suspect has been charged with a crime. All in all a travesty of bad research and please not a second series of Mid Atlantic trash. Filmed on location in London it may have been for the exterior shots but I suspect Canada or somewhere in North America for internals. A mixture of genuine American accents from the genuine Americans, weak accents from the British/Americans and the obligatory Eastend cockney accents from the genuine Brits. Worth watching only for the goofs.
Yeah, I know that title sounds convoluted, but this was just.... this is not how Britons are. Or the British legal system. Or British mannerisms. And some of those weren't British accents (that Molly girl was not Irish, she just... wasn't. Though Anthony Head is, and now he's playing an American?).
Every British buzz-topic has been thrown into this blender. Knox/ Kircher, The Troubles, The Royals, it's all thrown in there. This is really obviously about how Americans see us, and they produced an American show (slow mo shots, use of music, wide angle overhead shots), all they did was unnecessarily base it in London where apparently everyone is rich and lives close to the Astoria. And drinks in the same pub. And bump into each other in one of the most populous cities in the world.
Billy Zane was,as always, amazing. I watched it initially because he was in it, and he always does a stellar job. He wrangled his lines beautifully, and his incredulity at the stupidity of the main characters was apparent in his delivery. Can not fault him, and he's the only reason this debacle got any stars from me at all.

I just watched the pilot and I must say that I can't see this show renewed for the next seasons.
I'm not much in this 'detective kind' of shows, but I loved 'The Killing' for example and I loved it right from the start.. No need to mention other Top-level shows in this genre, like 'Fargo' or 'True Detective'. So, It's not masterpiece and It's never gonna be. It wasn't even supposed to be... So, if you want some 'not good/not bad' show, which will help you fall asleep, this one is for you, but if you want great acting/story line/soundtrack.. etc combination, you should start watching shows mentioned earlier.
Though, there's only one episode released yet and 'who knows what the tide could bring', eh?

It's "Decent TV". It's worth watching because the set-dec is pretty as are the people. I don't care whether or not I'm actually seeing naked people screwing, I have porn for that. I've been meaning to put out a question about "Modern" TV drama (on subscription channels and some networks in Canada) "Where is the line and who draws it between a TV shows and an Adult feature? -off topic but I'm interested in your opinion
It's nice to see beauty at work AND at play, BUT ....if a scene with actively depicted sex goes on longer than 10 seconds, it's being used as filler (pun intended).
Guilt "IS" GUILTY of being dumbed down for USA networks. Canada, our networks handle FAR MORE questionable materiel with ease. Anyone who has been around the worlds it is depicting will understand immediately what I mean when I say it is unrealistic.
The actors play their parts to the fullest the script and censors all, the sets are terrific and the plot, while there may be holes in the credibility about "how" things actually work in these environments, one flaw is balanced by another, positive aspect.
Worth recording for when the shows you LOVE are not playing ...or on demand without commercials would be good as well. I had trouble getting through the 1st ep ... hated it. After the 2nd or 3rd I look forward to seeing it on my PVR's list. xoxo :)

Guilt is watchable, it has some degree of suspense, but the American influence is very much the negative factor which dogs it. It looks American, and somehow the British setting and performances don't gel with it. It's like a trashy ITV2 show, even footballer's wives Cristian Solimeno is here, he's good, but not well served by the script. The main flaw is the presence of the Royal character, the possibility of the scenarios playing out as they do, just stretch the imagination too far.
Needed to be made in the US, with American actors, Britain make incredible crime dramas, a genre that certainly doesn't need to be tampered with.
I enjoyed the mystery element of it, just didn't work for me. 5/10

- AnecdotesDaisy Head (Grace) is the daughter of Anthony Head, who plays James.
- GaffesWhen Luc and Grace try to escape to Paris on a train in the first episode, yes they are at St Pancras Station where Eurostar trains are based but that is clearly not a Eurostar train. Also the platform featured is not one that is in the Eurostar terminal.
