I, Jack Wright

It's a decent drama that keeps you coming back. Lots of interesting twists and plots underpinned by greed and entitlement which makes it binge worthy.

Most of the cast are great. Some appeared to be stuck in one gear throughout but you tolerate it.

I liked the mixed characters and personalities. Each episode you learn more about each of them and you eventually only really caring about a couple of them.

Each episode was well written until the final episode when all logic and common sense goes completely out of the window. You do expect some things to be unrealistic to add dramatic effect. But when people in positions of authority (Police officers and Judges) are dumbed down to the extent that their decisions are comical it takes the shine away from what could have been a great show.

Murder, Money, and Mayhem: "I, Jack Wright" delivers a deliciously pulpy thriller that revels in its soapy, greed-fueled chaos. A wealthy patriarch's murky death sparks a vicious family feud over his £100m fortune, echoing Succession and Knives Out with a dash of Agatha Christie.

Chris Lang's writing delivers a fast-paced, hammy romp packed with unlikeable, yet magnetic characters-Trevor Eve's gruff Jack, John Simm's desperate Gray, and Ruby Ashbourne-Serkis' cunning Emily - shine. While not as sharp as Lang's Unforgotten, the slick production and twisty murder mystery make it a guilty pleasure. Perfect for fans of melodramatic whodunits, this is escapist fun MOSTLY done right.

While a couple of characters lose some of their lustre in later episodes, overall, the acting is good throughout. Directing, editing, all good. Parts of the script lose the mystery a bit, for the most part, the script is good, even if you work out what the ending is likely to be.

Excellent, suspenseful, many twists, edge of seat. The last episode was a disappointing cliff hangar that left me wishing I waited till next year so I could binge through a next season to finally get some answers to the many questions. The actors are very good. The writing is excellent and the production and sequencing is gripping. That's all but I need to keep writing something because there's a requirement for reviews to contain at least six hundred characters. Good thing the series didn't have that many! Give it a go if you don't mind waiting at least another year to get answers to the questions it raises.

I really liked this show. It grabs your attention from the start. Great acting and plot. I watched all 6 episodes in one sitting. Daniel Rigby was so good and had his part down. His facial expressions were priceless in showing his anguish. The huge downfall is the PROFANITY that all these shows think they need for absolutely no reason. It is so offensive and normal people don't use profanity in everyday life. This is the new push the button in all these new shows and in politics. I start so many shows and have to turn off. I tried to ignore it here because the plot was good. Hope there is a season 2! They leave so many unanswered questions in the end.

The producers did a weird and selfish ending by providing no ending. It's all a cliff hanger til season 2. Yes, many series end with a new and unresolved cliff to hang from, but this is nearly all untied. Stupid idea. The series was top notch however. Script very good and acting spot on. If only more shows could be this high quality - except for the greedily commercialized final minute.
