You will squirm, you will be uncomfortable, you will feel the suspense and you will cry..
That's how powerful and amazing the 8 episodes of this show were..
The first 2 episodes were even difficult to watch because of the physical and emotional brutality shown.
Must watch. 9.5/10

The two lead detective roles played by Toni Collette and Merritt Wever are performances I won't easily forget, and are the highlight of the show. Unbelievable has a realistic, real world kind of style to the script which can be dry at times but also adds an extra layer of realism to the show.
Honestly this was the best series I have seen on TV in years . It was perfectly crafted , Acted and Written. I can't give this enough praise , I really do hope it wins an award .
I created this account just to write this review. This show was, at times, hard to watch because you connect so well with the characters. It transitions perfectly between two story lines never feeling like you are getting cut off too soon. The acting is phenomenal and the message is one that needs to be heard. It does an amazing job of following the article written by ProPublica. I recommended it to all my girlfriends and, only a few episodes in, they are saying the same. Best limited series I've seen in quite some time.
I wasn't fully aware of the story, but after I watched episode one I decided to look into it, I stuck with it, and I'm glad I did. That poor girl, the ordeals she went through, physically, medically, and psychologically, with those who should have protected her treating her as a criminal.
It's an addictive story, you will feel angry and annoyed, and at one stage satisfied. Toni Collette is magnificent throughout, it is very well acted.
It's tragic in this day and age that someone can be raped, and be made to feel like a liar, I'm not saying people don't lie, because they do, but the assumption should be that they're a victim.
Compelling, 9/10.
