Liar: L'amore bugiardo

It is funny that large majority of the reviews here were written after the first episode.

This is a TV show that after the second episode takes so many turns that your head spins. It really has to be binged in order to be fully appreciated. Only after knowing what happened later you can truly understand what happened in the first two episodes and why people behaved like they did.

The ending was shocking to me, I did not see it coming and I wonder what really happened.

For those who say that men were portrayed like the villains - Laura eventually goes on a date with some other guy who seems normal and likable. The supporting cast is definitely not "the stock" kind. Every actor took what was given to him and gave his best.

If this show is really planned for another season I am really looking forward to it.

I am stunned to see so many negative reviews, when you look at viewing figures for this show the opinion of the General Public clearly did not share such a negative view, the show ended with more viewers then it started with.

Rape must be one of the most henous crimes of all, particularly in light of the many stories worldwide. A victim asking the question why me, and why should the perpetrator be allowed to get away with it.

Ioan Gruffudd and joanne froggatt are sensational throughout, such is the quality of the acting, and the writing that your sympathies switch from one character to another's, as does your anger.

I think it got better as it went on, the Fifth part had me on the edge of my seat, the concluding episode also so well done, leaving us all desperate for Series Two.

Bravo 9/10

Had high hopes for this drama, but it was dragged out too long. It would have been more intense and edgy if it had been edited to about 3 episodes. Lost credibility when Laura takes on the investigative role and tries to solve her own case.

I actually enjoyed this series very much! Watched it in two days run and was very entertained the whole way through. The characters are well rounded, the atmosphere is spooky and (I think) believable. They actors were splendid and I think the plot - and the twists, were all very well written. Also a great cinematography. Yes, maybe some of the things or decisions seem 'out there' (have you ever watched a classic horror), but come on, this is a show - reality may not be THAT entertaining nor dramatic, but this is not reality. I came to see a thrilling, exciting series and I got exactly that. And I would gladly watch season 2. Pleased.

I was excited for this show. It started out excellent. However, it bogged down in the middle, then just ended. The ending did not live up to the hype, or the opening of the series.
