A Teacher

So many people left a review defending Claire and the whole situation. The show makes you feel like it's not right but not that bad. Unfortunately so many people that left a review got invested in the characters and their feeling rather than taking a step back and seeing the situation in the show for what it is. Keep watching and finish the season so you can get your heads out of the clouds and realize what you just watched. It ended how it does in real life, and I hope people come back to change or delete their silly reviews that they left after only watching a few episodes and thinking they are watching some sexy affair.

I rank this as a 7 because I think it's well-done but I can't say that loved watching it, because the subject matter is a bit uncomfortable. It's like watching a train wreck with a bunch of characters that you kind of like, kind of don't like and ultimately disapprove of... and then it goes from bad to worse. Well-done storytelling and acting. Kate Mara is very good.

Well once you realise it's not risky or salacious and is something lame like The CW or Alibi would show, you quickly thank the episodes are so short. Mara is a great actor and Robinson never does anything wrong per se, also the rest of the cast chip in accordingly with what is needed. However that's all very well for acting, it's the age problem, none of them look TEENAGE, (Robinson is 24 and looks it) they don't come across as being preyed upon in fact quite the opposite. Subsequently the so called emotion the viewer is meant to feel is thusly ineffective. I don't see why TV production companies keep on doing this, yes they want a marquee name but at what cost? Surely it would be more fruitful to have a cast actually play the age range required.

Not bad so far. It's uncomfortable because it's a sad reality.

... they try to cram too much into a 30 minute episode. Episode 7 was a good example of this with all of Erik's escapades crammed into 30 minutes. The should should be 60 minutes.
