They should have left this as one season. The second season was utterly abysmal. It was so over the top and unnecessary. The first season was believable but the second was ridiculous. They tried way too hard to fill every episode with drama and action that it became silly and it almost became unwatchable. It was bad enough from the get go when the character of Jen had a different actress and personality but it just got worse as it went on. I'd have given the first season an 8 but sadly the second season tried too hard to be something it wasn't and went down an awful tacky spiral and has sadly dragged the overall score down. Watch the first season but pretend there isn't a second and leave it there.
The reviewers who struggled to warm to Jack and Jen have no idea how clinically wired Narcissists are.
Jack's control methods,gaslighting,abuse of Tasha are accurate. His acting portrayed how calibrated they are and how they use their prey for supply. Supply of whatever they need. They are brutal and most are psychopaths.
If they are revealed they often turn to violence,withhold food,freedom etc and snap. Snap meaning ,if their ego is no longer massaged they go into blind rage ,murder and/or injuring the innocent.
The weaknesses are in editing and mismatching music scores. The theme of Narcissism is accurate and informative. Jack uses sex and mental trickery and gifts. Textbook.

One of the most unbelievable and stupid shows I've ever been forced to watch by my girlfriend. The general story could have worked well - but with all of the characters lacking any sense of realistic emotion/likeability meant I spent half of the time laughing at the comical plot twists.
Pretty much everything that happens defies both logic and sense (unless you live an alternate hell like universe full of sociopaths) with the story moving from one travesty to another.
By the end of it you have to accept all the characters have no redeeming qualities and you couldn't care less about any of them.
Avoid this unless you like an accidental comedy or are extremely gullible.
The Lord of the Rings is probably more believable in terms of realism.

Loved this series. Four episodes was just perfect - not dragged out. Great acting from all the main actors, great story line and all round great drama series. I loved Celine Buckens in Show Trial and she was just as fabulous in this.
I hadn't watched Tom Mison since Sleepy Hollow and he brought such a believable darkness to this role. Chilling.
I'm thankful that I have a Paramount+ subscription so I could watch it. If you don't, you are missing out on a show like this one. 4 words - 7 day free trial!
People should definitely take the time to watch this one. It's well worth it, and you won't be disappointed.

Bad things happen & I empathize. If bad things happen to good people, I empathize more. However, when bad things happen to someone who is so incredibly lacking in common sense or logic or intelligence or the ability to learn from her mistakes ... well, it's impossible to empathize. It's just frustrating, until I was outright angry that someone wrote this character, someone thought it was OK, and others thought it was OK to make a miniseries around it. I made it a few minutes into Ep3, then couldn't even be in the same room with it. I can't think of the last time I was so repulsed by a main character, that I wanted so much for the villain (who was so insane that there's no way he could have been so successful in business) to finish off the main character once and for all. Put her out of her misery ... and me.
