Summary
Reviewers say 'Medusa' offers an intriguing premise with strong performances and fitting casting, yet it is criticized for its inconsistent, predictable storyline and unlikable characters. The series' excessive focus on sex scenes and uneven pacing, with moments that drag and others that rush through details, detract from its potential. Despite some engaging elements, the show fails to deliver a compelling crime mystery, leaving many viewers disappointed.
Featured reviews
This crime, mystery, and investigation series had the potential to be truly compelling, but unfortunately, it falls short due to poor execution. The premise itself is intriguing, and with the right direction, it could have been an intense and engaging story. However, the creators failed to fully explore its potential, resulting in a show that feels underwhelming and, at times, frustrating.
One of the biggest missteps is the casting and characterization. The directors made questionable choices for almost every character, making it difficult to connect with them or believe in their roles. Whether it's miscast actors or poorly written character arcs, the result is a lack of depth and authenticity that weakens the story's impact.
Instead of delivering the gripping suspense and intelligent storytelling expected from a series of this genre, it often falls into clichés and predictable developments. The pacing is inconsistent, with moments that drag unnecessarily and others that rush through important details, leaving key aspects underdeveloped.
Overall, while the series had all the ingredients to be great, it ultimately misses the mark. It's a disappointing watch for those looking for a well-crafted crime mystery, as it fails to deliver on both character development and narrative depth.

I was looking forward to watching this show because so many of my favorite actors from La Reina Del Flow were in it especially Carlos Torres who I think is one of the best actors of our generation. After the first episode, I thought maybe it will get better on the second one. Another episode with terrible writing and multiple sex scenes to distract from the disaster of a show from beginning to end, just terrible writers and lack of creativity really made this series unbearable to watch. I managed to get to the fourth episode and by then could no longer justify the waste of my precious time on such a poorly made series. Shame because some of the cast happen to be brilliant actors and this disaster did nothing to showcase their talent.
To be honest I started this series being excited, as I've never seen something like this particular plot, but as the plot was unfolding, I realised I was forcing myself to watch it. Although I love mystery, suspense and crime, the series became tiring to watch. The endless sex scenes were not adding to the show, the unlikable characters were making it hard to enjoy and the end was unnecessary confusing. I think that 1 season might be enough, and a closure should have been given. I even considered some scenes cringe as well. I would say that this series had potential, but ultimately left me disappointed.
When I wanted to watch this series, I quickly realized that it was nothing but a collection of erotic scenes with almost no real storyline. It's as if the creators completely forgot about writing a proper script and just focused on adding as much sex as possible. If you're looking for a substitute for p*rno, this series might do the job, but if you actually want a compelling story, don't waste your time.
Instead of relying on excessive eroticism to grab attention, why not invest in real storytelling, proper character development, and an engaging plot? Maybe then, you'd actually attract an audience for the right reasons. Right now, it's painfully obvious that this was a lazy attempt at making a show. It feels cheap, uninspired, and frankly, a waste of time..

In short this show is female centric character named Barbara .. whatever she does is always right this show is made accordingly ..married but..erotic with 50 plus men she is right before accident she has done the humiliantion of humanity within family but she is right..mother missing since 20 yrs ..that time didnt try to find her..suddenly after accident she has become a nice person still whatever she does is right coz its in her favor..Detective is a clown he is also main character ..too much nudity without any logic. In short too many flaws just to show main charactr female right, her husbnd has given his everything for her she has done 50 plus affairs that are fine , husbd done with his assistant..she s saying you cheated me..lol..sometimes it feels how could be so many flaws in the script just to prove her right. Apart from barbara and detective every other character has played good role at the end i would give 1 star out of 10. Very bad execution.
