Who Is Erin Carter?

The good thing about this mini-series is that there is a lot of action, good fighting scenes, a little suspense and mystery and overall good acting. The bad thing was the sometimes poorly written plot. By that I mean there were some "yeah right, what are the odds they know each other, or it's a very small world" moments. But even with those weak moments the show remained very entertaining. The fighting scenes were pretty brutal and well choreographed. Maybe not everybody's cup of tea but certainly mine. There are only seven episodes so it's one of those binge watching shows that you can easily finish in a couple days.

This started with a decent premise -- a mom/school teacher leading a pleasant, suburban life but hiding a dark and violent past. As the plot unfolded in the midst of cocktail parties and after-school activities, it reminded me a bit of a Harlan Coben mini-series. But after a few episodes, the level of gun play and martial arts fighting rose to video game levels. Some characters are impossible to kill, no matter how many bullets hit them; too many others are simply expendable. The first few episodes drew me in enough to make me finish watching this series, but overall it was ridiculous and watching it probably made me dumber. The beautiful scenery and charismatic cast didn't save it.

It is not as bad as I had read in the comments.

Obviously it's not the best series in the history of television, but I don't think it tries to be.

It's true that it has elements that are not very credible, but it's entertaining, and who expects a fictional series to be credible?

It is clarifying little by little the questions that it raises at the beginning and many scripts do that, so I don't think that is a defect, but a very common dramatic resource to maintain the interest.

I've watched it all the way through without any effort, while others with more fame I haven't made it past the second chapter, or the second season.

It's not one of those that makes you sad to see it end, but I think it fulfills its role of entertaining.

And that's why I rate it with a 6/10, because without being good it's not boring.

My husband and I really enjoyed this mini-series, which we watched over two nights. It has an interesting plot and developed characters. The backstory is delivered bit by bit, keeping the viewer involved. I appreciated the main character as being multi-faceted. Well acted, Erin Carter is a character who behaves as real people do: sometimes clever, sometimes foolish. She struggles and she grows. In fact all the characters are like people you might actually know. Some good and some bad qualities. Of course being entertainment, the plot is often unrealistic. But, hey, it is tv. If you want realism, turn off the tv and read the newspaper. If you want an entertaining show, this is a good one.

She's a badass, that's who she is!

I ignored this for a few days because I thought this was another dubbed Netflix series which seems to be flooding the place lately.

I'm glad I gave it a go though, it was good. Erin Carter gets caught up in a Spanish supermarket robbery. After a tussle with one of the perpetrators he recognises her as 'Kate'.

As the title suggests we then see who Erin Carter really is.

There's nothing groundbreaking here, we've seen other series with similar plots but this ran smoothly, was never really boring and kept the audience guessing.

It's seven episodes with a running time of around fifty minutes per episode.

A solid seven out of ten from me.
