I wanted to like this. I am a big fan of British TV but even with subtitles on, the accents made this unintelligible to anyone outside of that area of Britain. Then there is the odd telling of this movie which leaves more questions than answers. The crime it's self is minimized. The victim is minimized. We never hear from her. How did this happen? How did this impact her? That's what really matters.

This is all about the community and how the community handled a child abduction.

I've never seen a story told from that point of view. Do I really care? No. Would I want a. Susan Smith story told solely by the neighbors? No.

I found the entire thing wanting.

I don't get the great reviews. I wanted to like this series. There are too few Native American anything. My aunt lived and worked on the Rez so I have always been interested and respectful of the culture. I adore dark comedy but I didn't find this at all funny. I was also just bored to death. I will admit that I only lasted for two episodes and realized I had better things to do with my time. This was just depressing and bleak.

I have loved this series since the 1950s and watch episodes over and over but this is one of the worst. Other than Walker, the acting is awful. It's worst than high school plays. Wow. Just wow.
