Estação Temple

A slow burn but fabulous. Quirky, clever & crisp. And funny.... Reality takes a back seat but it's TV! Mark Strong & the rest of the cast are amazing. Can not wait for Series 2. Hopefully that will happen?

It was pretty refreshing to watch a TV series where no protagonist was easy to root for. All of them have ambiguous motives and do things beyond one's limits, usually for their ultimate goal (and no, I don't just mean the good Dr.) Character buildup was excellent and the plot picks up pace around the 3rd or 4rth episode where one starts to understand that in one swift moment your favorite character can become the complete opposite. Nice comedic touches here and there, effortlessly blended with some hard-to-watch moments. A solid 7.

Watched & enjoyed. Good cast. Good locations. Good story. Yes, it's maybe a bit far fetched - but, that's drama. At times it is somewhat 'comedic'. Looking forward to S2

S1 Interesting and chaotic but still a good watch. S2 looking pretty decent until episode 5 and 6. I couldn't even finish E6 as it was absolutely pathetic. This is supposed to be about a surgeon and and scientist (main 2 characters in those episodes, but they would have made Dumb and Dumber look like Harvey/Nobel Prize winners. I was very surprised as Mark Strong is a superb actor, did he see the final cut? Did the writer go for a toilet break and leave Joey Essex to finish the story whilst Danny Dyer took over the production?

If your IQ is above average, steer well clear of this utter nonsense, the base was there but the writers, producers, directors and actors lost the plot and got bored and went down the pub and lost interest in making something watchable. Felt a bit like a bunch of painters being paid early for a job, then deciding they would go down the pub and then forgetting the address of the job!

Got quite caught up in series 1. A somewhat fanciful but enjoyable plot line with a solid cast. Season 2 started badly and quickly faded away. A serious of increasingly nonsensical twists in the story leading the episodes to become increasingly painful to watch. You will get to a point where you simply can go no further. Mine was at about 35 mins into episode 2.
