Leopard Skin

How this series has a lower score than Jett is beyond me. This show is wildly unpredictable and exciting. My mind works like an automatic puzzle solving machine when I watch a show/film and usually predict the end very quickly, but with this show...? Ha. Not on your life.

I have found myself thinking back to this incredible show numerous times since watching and I am left wishing that there would be a sequel as I rather resent that the ride is over. I just want to see what happens to a few, certain characters as they really ended up being quite endearing.

I hope that Carla and Sebastion make more shows like this as they do it sooooo well. They understand love.

From the makers of Jett brings you Leopard Skin a Murder Mystery Jewel Heist Romance Thriller starring Carla Gugino, Gaite Jansen, Amelia Eve and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

First of all the filming location is quite stunning and beautiful to look at. I like the cast of characters with each passing episode we learn more about who these people are. Leopard Skin is quite stylized with quirky dialogue. The ending of the show still have a few unanswered questions about the heist. Do I want a season 2 of Leopard Skin? NO! Jett has too big of a cliffhanger to be just left alone so here's hoping Jett will get a season 2.

With these two. I can't stop thinking about them.

The inner monologues are off the hook.

The setting.

The music.

The two of them. Y'all know which two. Those two. I don't want to give spoilers. They are everything.

I liked them in JETT as well which now I'm bingeing because of Leopard Skin.

I don't have more to say that doesn't give away the plot of my favorite love story on tv. So I will just reprint the description which is not at all the delirious, crazy, passionate show this is: "Leopard Skin" is a thriller set in a remote beachside estate in Mexico, where former documentarian Alba Fontana (Carla Gugino, "The Haunting of Hill House") lives. When a criminal gang that includes Fausto Malone (Gentry White) flees a botched heist, they take shelter at the estate.

Wow!!!! This is totally different than Jett (which Cinemax couldn't sell right but is on HBO Max) with some of the same actors like a parallel universe Jett. Carla Gugino is of course senselesly beautiful (when isn't she?) tOTally fierce in this story that has comedy, music, sex, violence and like something more esoteric? Amelia Eve (with Carla in Bly Manor) and Ana De La Reguera are the funny parts and the criminal gang is the scary part. And they do that well. I won't spoil how slick Negan is in this but also be prepared for the most intriguing relationship between two women on television. Fire! All the women are standouts. Gaite Jensen (Tatiana from Peaky Blinders) is heartbreaking!!! Peacock is really showing stepping up their game making something this fresh.

Some oth4r reviewers have pointed out this show's main appeal is the love story at its center and the psychological games between two of the characters and how unhinged and finally satisfying that is. It messes with your expectations but is handled so well by the writer and the two actors at the center (to not give away spoilers). Also the setting is like a dream with all the ocean waves always coming in and out and the repeating images of the 3 different characters gliding in the pool as the ownership of the villa evolves. I was surprised how fast the episodes feel even when the tangents they take you on are unexpected. Favorite characters: Alba, Batty and Maru. This gets funnier and weirder as it goes along. I would binge season 2 easily.
