Enjoyable, well cast black comedy. Did sag a little in the middle, maybe would have been better as a movie.
It's a fun series and doesn't need to be more than that, I didn't expect this to win any awards but I expected to have a good time and I have, Maisie williams is always a pleasure to watch, and I also enjoyed the mum in the series a lot, the brothers are where I find the major faults as others have stated, I don't think the acting is awful but I also don't think it's amazing on their behalf. The police are fine, pretty stereotypical. There are a few moments that had me laugh out loud and I don't often laugh out loud (whenever the man in the diner makes an appearance) and I liked the premise of the prank of two weeks to live however I can see a plot hole or two in the raising of Maisie's character but overall good fun, go in with an open mind.
......this is NOT the show for you.
The many reviews giving the show 1 to 3, are obviously from people in that category.
If you do enjoy that sort of thing, this is a fun and gory dark comedy, which is hopefully extended for another season.
I highly recommend it for Anglophiles :)

Enjoyed this.
'Two Weeks to Live' is a nicely paced six episode series, with Maisie Williams in the starring role. Williams is definitely the standout performer, those around her are neither good or bad; serviceable. The show attempts to mix humour and seriousness, not very well if I'm honest. The comedy is fairly strong, Williams has good delivery, but the more sincere stuff doesn't quite land - it made me a cringe a little bit in some moments.
All in all though, I would recommend this. I would watch a second season.

I'm surprised at some of the low ratings and reviews - I can only think that they are from people that don't get British humour - you don't have to have canned laughter on a show to know when to laugh (or maybe some people do)
The acting is good, the wit is quick and dry and it's just thoroughly entertaining.
