Ten Days in the Valley

I really enjoy this show. It is an excellent mystery with many twists. It is really sad to read negative reviews from people after only 1 or 2 episodes. It's no wonder so many new shows don't survive.Give this show a chance.

I found it very very weird almost premonition like that she was wearing a Tom Petty Shirt and then talking about a "Casino Massacre" as a possible episode subject. The same evening this premieres and there was the Las Vegas Massacre and then the next day Tom Petty passes... So flippin weird!

I thought this series was about a missing child but after just watching the pilot episode it will not take you long to see the camera rarely wavers far from Kyra Sedgwick as she portrays a TV crime screen writer named Jane Sadler who is recently divorced, and seems to love her drugs in the form of pills and powder, wine, job, and then time permitting, her daughter in this order.

The series has a decent cast which includes Erika Christensen, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Ali Liebert, Felix Solis and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje but even the cast gets little to no face time with the camera focusing almost all the air time on the (well past done) Kyra Sedgwick. In 2015 Kyra starred in a drama/thriller titled Big Sky that was panned by the critics who stated the film lacked tension.

So what does Kyra do to rebound from her 2015 film stinker? She gets involved in a ten (10) part TV series so that we the audience can feel sorry for a somewhat hard working TV crime screen writer who is hooked on pills, coke, wine and her job until the wee hours of the morning, and neglects her young daughter who goes missing.

I intend to watch the next few episodes but if the camera continues to stay focused on just Kyra Sedgwick as it did in the first episode I will be quickly switching to another channel as I would prefer to watch Kyra in re-runs as Brenda Leigh Johnson in the 2005-2012 Closer.

As for Ten Days in the Valley, so far one day was enough for me. I give it a 4 out of 10 rating.

after the end of the first episode there are many questions to be had answered here 'who took then little girl is the father really as bad as he seems ' and I am personally loving the show myself and I cant wait to see more of it I am a single straight man yet this has really grown on me in even just the first episode I say ignore the bad reviews give the show a chance for yourself before deciding on whether to love or hate it but I love it

After watching the third day and getting drawn in further, I wanted more and looked in IMDb.com to feast on any crumbs of information I can grab. While loving the story so much I am disheartened by the negatives in the reviews. This is an excellent show with depth in the act of child abduction, sexual promiscuity, addictions and the seemingly unimportant lies we tell others and even ourselves. I'm addicted to this show and how each actor acts and reacts to the flow of revelations in the story. This show and multiple plots, ie each characters back story and motivation is captivating, I am drawn in by trying to determine if each individual is acting solely or to the benefit of another, or, being played by another persons ends.

I think the fault of others reviews are caught up in failing to see into the story and viewing superficially at the actor and not the character being portrayed. Show Kyra as much as you want, she is the star, that's how that rolls.

Keep up the good work crew, I'm Your fan...
