Reprisal

This series was beautifully dark intriguing and unusual with great story telling.

There could have been a spin off series just about the Monster Crew. Craig Tate and Wavvy Jonez play their characters brilliantly.

Just sorry we will never get a conclusion because it ends on a knife edge.

This started off a little slow for me, it wasn't until episode 4 that it picked up for me. I noticed a lot of reviews complaining about the discrepancy in what decade this was in, but it is supposed to be vague, sort of like Riverdale or Gotham. Kind of an alternate universe, that's why you can't pin down what era it's set in. I love revenge stories like John Wick, and one with a female lead is refreshing, without going to the "I Spit On Your Grave" tropes. I'm all in for season two.

To my mind, this show is evoking, rather than actually set in the 1950's.

Stylish, slick production. Great acting and dialogue, resulting in an engrossing yet slightly creepy, noir vibe.

...this is the new show for you.

Same dark and ominous feeling, same convoluted and interesting story line, same level of violence - and an elegant use of flash backs, to constantly evolve the story.

Abigail Spencer is playing the role of her life, and is performing a tour de force that leaves you thinking, that she is one of the coolest female protagonists in recent TV drama history.

I found this show by chance, and having watched the first season, I highly recommend it.

Reprisal is an incredibly fun and well acted thriller about revenge. It will hook you from the start and keep you entertained throughout the series! I didn't really know what to expect but I'm so glad I gave it a chance because I was pleasantly surprised!
