Gypsy

I really love this series. I saw a lot of negative reviews and almost didn't watch it. I am not through with the season, so I cannot speak to the ending, or if it is satisfying. However, it is a slow-burn, layered, psychological drama. It reminds me a little of the Hulu original Chance, which also featured a psychologist as the central character. It will not appeal to anyone seeking a fast-paced series, but if you don't need all that and are willing to let a show slowly reveal its plot, give this one a try.

Gypsy was a superb show with quality, intrigue, intricate plot and storylines all in one basket.

• The screenplay and plot were amazingly well-done with finesse and always had your attention grabbed
• The acting was awesome from all of the cast with special kudos to the brilliant performance by Naomi Watts. She is born to perform such roles and I will never forget her mastery in Mulholland Drive
• The torrid scenes were very believable and true emotions were shown and felt
• The music and soundtrack were up to the point, well chosen and created
• The twisted psychology behind the various plots and intricate manipulations brilliantly thought out and depicted

The final episode shone brilliantly and begged a second season, providing answers to many left out mysteries and raising new ones.

Unfortunately, it was deceptively cancelled and left the fans with frustration and much needed therapy of their own. Looking much forward to seeing Naomi Watts in another psychological thrilling drama series in the near future.

I am deeply captivated by the show especially Watts' rendition of the main character. Each episode is satisfying and it's like having its own mini closure so I can enjoy 1 episode a day. Some claim Gypsy threw forward lots of questions unanswered with a cliffhanging ending of season 1. However, if you watched carefully since the beginning; the answers were all written between the lines. Why not to leave a little space to our imaginations? It's a regret but no surprise that Netflix canceled the show. Gypsy is deeply introspective, soul revealing and exploring; consequently, it only suits a relatively small niche.

This show is an alluring, slowly-built seduction that reflects the storyline itself. I would kill for a season 2, but I'm on my third rewatch and this singular season is gold on its own.

I enjoyed it a lot, Naomi is an amazing actor and she keeps you intrigued through the episodes. You should give it a try if you like psychological dramas.

The only problem I have with Gypsy is the writing is not very good, in terms of the character's dialogue and the aspect of being a thriller, if Netflix decides to give this show a second season it should probably hire a few writers and it's going to be great.

Naomi Watts is brilliant playing Jean Holloway, Billy Crudup and Sophie Cookson nailed the parts of Michael and Sidney. Overall, the whole cast is great and it has potential to be a really great show.

By the last episodes they were able to finally deliver the thriller aspect with the show, but it took a little bit of time to get there, so I understand why some critics didn't appreciate it. Mid-season I was hooked by the story, I really liked it! Crazy ride for sure.
