Truth Be Told

Plot is good, scripts are not. Great cast squandered.

Thought it was passable to start. I just find myself being less and less engaged each episode. It's getting more and more ridiculous as it goes on, and not in an entertaining way.

I don't understand the negative reviews. I find the acting by Octavia Spencer and Aaron Paul (who I love) to be superb. My attention span is not what it used to be so I cannot watch slow moving shows. This one has kept my attention and I don't find myself wandering off because the story line is not just about the plot but also about the characters.

... in order to see where it goes. But it's difficult. Poppy is extremely unlikeable and I'm not a great fan of Octavia's acting here. I also find her relationships with the two men (husband and ex) very mismatched - I cant see either of them being in a relationship with her to be honest. Aaron Paul is great but he isn't seen as often as needed to hold this cast up. The Lanie/Josie characters are a bit of a caricature and over-acted. I'm hoping they will pull something out for the last few episodes that surprises us and redeems the series.

Apple TV got it right. I have seen Servant, Home before dark, sending Jacob and now Truth be told. Great mystery series about who done it in a different perspective than a usual. I binged this series in 2 days. Good character development and unveiling of characters are unique. Cinematography is refreshing and adequate. I'd love to see the 2nd season of this. Great acting by all actors.

I liked this show right off the bat, however it lost its steam for me after a few episodes. Dragged on and on and on. Disappointing.
