Kin

And so they all get what they deserve. As a viewer I can not have any sympathy for anyone. These are all criminals fighting their drugwars amongst themselves and every now and then an 'innocent' victim triggers a chain of events and bad choices (especially by the gangsters' love interests) that leaves me, nibbling on my popcorn, thinking: who's next. Not that I care or give a ****. The actors nonetheless are great, by the way. The main problem is just: there is no protagonist. Let bad guys kill bad guys - who cares.

Kin as in Kinsella a fictional Dublin crime family embroiled in a crime war . Murder, death and drugs seem to be everyday activities for this Irish clan .

A well acted crime drama with devastating violence . I read somewhere it was not based in truth but fiction. But I did read in Irish Times the big Dublin crime family is the Kinahan gang.

Kin !

This series has kept me gripped. Interesting characters and enough action to keep you tuning in. I do have an issue with one story line. Michael and his daughter Anna. She has to be the most inept and wooden actress I have ever watched. Her expression and tone of voice never change! No matter what is happening on screen. She has all the charisma of a deck chair. Not only is this story line superfluous but every time Hannah Adeogun, who plays Anna, makes an appearance I'm tempted to just fast forward the episode. If there is a series 3 I hope she is written out. She spoils what is a very good show.

A very real and very true depiction of the crime families of inner city Dublin, families with the same three letters starting the name, KIN. The grand poetry of the word meaning family, a la cosa nostra of Sicily and other mafioso using omertà as the key to success, while selling drugs, brandishing guns, and turning on each other, KIN or no KiN.

Excellent story and character driven to the point they really do seem real. The Dublin accent works really well. The Bren character is maybe the worst human I've ever came across, making it compelling and keeps you intrigued; even to see his demise (or not)

This is the best thing the BBC has made in a while. Scorsese would be proud. Even the use of music is perfect, meaningful.

It has everything sadness, betrayal, love... and the story told like a true Irish Bard.

Methodical and gritty. This series has great potential.
