Wolfe

There are so many great reviews on here I don't get the 6.4 rating?

This was great. I binged all 6 as wanted to see what happened each episode.

It's cleverly written , good acting and Wolfe is witty , so clever but watching him struggle with his mental health was hard at times. It makes him real though. The rest of the team all add to the program too. You can sense the family they have built themselves. Didn't take a genius to figure out D was upto something though. Hopefully there will be a season 2.

Ignore the whiners, it's fun, different and takes itself just seriously enough. There is an interesting arc across the series as well as the individual episode plots.

I don't know why the production team went with the first scene , I believe it may have been an attempt at comedy but failed to work, at least for me. However, please, please stick with the show as within minutes you are hooked line and sinker. Wolfe (with an E) is a combination of very clever, very funny writing supported by a wonderful cast of characters, excellent cinematography and (for once) great sound editing. I would suggest British show is at least the equal to any top quality US tv production along the lines of such as Dexter etc.

In closing, I highly recommend Wolfe as 2021's 'go to' dark comedy.

I must confess to really enjoying something different, don't enjoy watching the same thing and Wolfe is different. Well written & acted, seems almost spontaneous even when you know it's from a script that's just been skillfully performed. The characters gel when they probably shouldn't. If forensics does need real life to justify their existence this should help. Those giving low ratings clearly only like standard TV fare so they should stick to watching just that. This is excellent TV, up there with the best. Not Silent Witness, nor is it trying to be. Hope there's more seasons.

I wouldn't want to pretend to be Dr Wolfe Kinte, nor have that be how people recognize me, either.

Imagine a high functioning mentally ill forensic's person, and the team that might exist to support them. Now glimpse their life at the start of a manic shift.

My biggest issues have been no clue what they're talking about, a lot more often than the other brit shows I've enjoyed. Meaning they use lots of slang and phrases I'm not familiar with. It happens so often I'll have no clue what they're "whingeing on about".

If you're sensitive to drama or rudeness, avoid it. For only 6 episodes, they manage a good progression for some characters. And enough repeating things that people appear to have personalities.

I hope the main character finds a role he enjoys, as he's an interesting person to watch (so far). I'm curious about lots of stuff, and generally knowledgeable so like hearing about current science use. And I appreciate seeing examples of other people's mental health issues since living with them can make you feel alone. And we don't realize how some people can manage success, even thriving, with the same symptoms you loathe.
