Netflix: Who is Erin Carter?

[madaboutharry]

Is it just me, or is this the dumbest series ever?

But I'll hand it to the writers, it is so bad you kind of want to watch just to see how convoluted and stupid it can get.

1. I turned it off before the first episode was finished. I was really disappointed too

most of the british mysteries I watch on Britbox are pretty good.

2. Thanks for the critique. I was thinking about watching

But now will pass.

3. The acting was actually good and the action was fun but it did have holes you could

drive a truck through. If you just want a rainy Saturday silly action film it's fine.

4. Barely made it through 1st episode. Won't be watching a 2nd.

5. I usually give things more of a chance before bailing,

but this was just too awful.

6. I almost started watching this

Thanks for the warning.

7. I thought it was really good

I watched the whole series and I think it was well-acted, well-written and fast-paced. And the Barcelona locations are nice, too.

11. I liked the Barcelona locations, too

and the lead actress is attractive. They do get you wondering what on earth this schoolteacher's background is.

But I had to drop it because the plot was too unrealistic. Also it got very repetitive with the violence.

8. More is less

This is the perfect example of more is less. This could have been a perfectly fine, if somewhat generic, movie by jettisoning a lot of the sub-plots and tightening the focus to the central mystery. Instead, it was stretched out to a limited series with the effect, to use Bilbo Baggins's words "like butter scraped over too much bread."

9. I'm curious. What do people think is a "good" example of this genre?

This seems to me a little less far-fetched than Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible.

[Danascot]

10. I watched the whole series and enjoyed it.

I guess my standards are low.

12. that made me laugh

one part that amused me was how brutal that kid was, in an amusing way. Beating up that little boy, that sort of thing. What a crazy kid.
