Safe

It's not a bad show....the acting is better than average. Dexter is good. The end is a twist....honestly I liked it and I'm tired of picking shows apart....I binge watched it in two days and I enjoyed it all...

It's not the best plot but it keeps you guessing....character development is rapid and fails in many ways...

Safe is about a family living in a sort of a community. After the loss of his wife, he is trying to move on with his daughters and new girlfriend. But everything falls apart when is daughter turns out missing after a party, and everyone seems to have one small bit of a puzzle, which is otherwise also connected to a mysterious shared past.

Michael C Hall plays the father who was never there, and is now desperately searching for his daughter in a series that brilliantly merges flashbacks with strong storytelling. Besides Hall, the supporting cast is amazing as well.

The minus, is the stupidity that appears more and more. Decisions like confronting bad people alone, instead of informing the police, thrusting unknown people and not your own family, not recognizing blatant lies etc. etc. All this is used to create tension and momentum, but wouldn't it be refreshing if series depended less on stupid decisions and find more creative ways to expand a story? Still, this series is interesting and exciting and absolutely worth a watch.

I am an addict of thrillers, mysteries, whodunits, and it's fair to say they've declined in number and quality. Then came Safe, and I have to be honest, I loved from start to finish, it was gripping, intelligent, thrilling, and at times very uncomfortable viewing. As has been mentioned, similar to Broadchurch, but slightly more of a thriller feel to it, more action then Broadchurch.

Two episodes stand out, the finale is brilliant, so action packed, so gripping. The best viewing comes from Part 4, which is intense, dramatic, and features a scene which in today's climate holds perhaps a little too much realism.

It's multi layered, the writing is superb, I'm hoping we get more of this style of show in the future. Amazing acting throughout, plaudits to Michael C. Hall, who is superb from start to finish. Amanda Abbington, Audrey Fleurot and Marc Warren also stand out.

I was a bit dubious, but do yourself a favour, watch it, it's fantastic drama. 9/10

I'm a bit confused, and perhaps I need to stop watching anything.

First of all, I'm a sucker for British mystery, suspense, anything. I've seen thousands , from Hammer B movies to Masterpiece Theater ad infinitum. I am going out on a limb and saying I really enjoyed this. It concerns a teenage girl who goes missing after a party, and one by one, neighbors in a gated community are connected to it. I thought it was very well done.

From the reviews I read on this site, the general feeling seemed to be (1) it was a soap opera; (2) the acting was bad and one-dimensional; and (3) Michael C. Hall's attempt at a British accent was laughable.

First off, it was a miniseries, and because it continued from episode to episode, it had some soap opera elements. I didn't mind that. I found it suspenseful and intriguing. A few people said they weren't sure if it was a drama or a comedy. That is because there were a few segments that were dark comedy. Again, before today, I didn't know drama could not have any comedy in it and vice versa.

I have no understanding -NONE - of how anyone can say with a straight face, given their impressive list of credits, that Michael C. Hall, Amanda Abbington, Marc Warren, and Audrey Fleurot - all of whom I've seen do other things - can't act, are one dimensional, or bad. Ridiculous.

Okay, Michael C. Hall's accent. I've been to England, I have British friends, I watch enormous amounts of British shows -- and I fail to see what was wrong with his accent except that he didn't sound like Dexter.

At first I thought the people complaining were actually Brits - my sister lived in England, came home with a British accent, and her friends in England were still teasing her about her American accent - so they hear something we don't. But no. Sorry, I would love for someone to tell me what was wrong with his voice.

Anyway, I thought this was good, compelling, and kept me interested.

Its very nice to see Michael C Hall again, his acting is perfect he shows just the right emotions witch every human will show if you're daughter or son goes missing. I've just seen the first episode it begins to show you who the characters are. Nice and loving people but are they really?

You can clearly see there are some father daughter problems but what they are is at this point unknown which makes you guess. What secrets is she keeping from me, and why?

He completely trusts his daughter but when see goes missing he tries to find out who her friends are. which aren't the kind he was hoping for.

The first episode begins slow but you feel the tension building and at the end of the episode there lies the climax you'll want. And hurry to the next episode.
