गिल्ट

I only wanted to add, that apart from London, most of these episodes were filmed in Budapest. It is always interesting to me to see the filming locations, I was a bit disappointed that non of them were mentioned.

I didn't even hang around for Billy Zane's appearance. I pity those actors who put themselves through this horror show of a "pilot" but I can't be bothered to keep watching to see who hung around.

This is the Notting Hill of British TV. Americans: keep away from other countries' entertainment. You have your own genre and audience.

Britain: Keep other cultures out of your own fabulous TV and cinema productions. Be true to your wonderful, reliable selves.

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 :)

I believe some people will come back to this show, and ask if they can watch it even though the show got canceled after the first season. I will say you can, because even though season 1 leaves you on a cliffhanger, you've got the answers to the questions that season 1 was all about. Would a second season have been relevant (to the story)? Absolutely. But now that Guilt got canceled anyway, we can as well be honest and say that a second season wouldn't have been necessary as much as it would have been relevant, because as mentioned: We got our answers in the first season, and they were as satisfying as they could get. Only very few and less important questions remained.

Now, I gave the show a 10 out of 10, since that is how much I enjoyed it. It was just my taste, and the mystery wasn't dragged out for too long. (10 episodes only.) That being said, Guilt might not be for everyone. It is not your typical True Detective or The Killing. If anything, I would describe it as a more mature version of Pretty Little Liars, but with How to Get Away with Murder vibes. It is not going to blow your mind with sophistication, but it is very enjoyable with great acting from most parts, intense writing that will bring you on the edge of your seat a lot of times, and the music/scores are great and fitting for the scenes.

I can only recommend you to start watching the first episode. If it's not your style at all, there's probably not a good chance you will like the rest of the season. However, if you find the first episode enjoyable but are not sure if you want to continue or not, you might want to watch till episode 4 to catch a better image of what the show is like. At least no matter what, I don't think you should let the cancellation ruin the experience for you, as this one season gives you the answers to the most important questions in the show, and it is a hell of a lot of fun.

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?
