    It's dreadful!...i watched episode 8 a few days ago....dire. No suspence or drama, i just watched it 'cause i wanna finish it out and see who gets the chop next. Even the murders are crap...i doubt there'll be any shockers as to who is the killer at the end.

    I personally don't recomend the show to anyone.

    It's summer time. Reruns and rubbish. One would hope they didn't actually pay anything for it. I guess Elaine Cassidy is the selling point.

    Katie Cassidy is hot...
    Elaine Cassidy not so much - unless I've got them mixed up.
    What has Elaine Cassidy done to make her such a selling point?

    Has all this season aired in the US? If so is the killer obvious?

    It starts tonight at 10.20pm on RTE 2 after Grey's Anatomy

    Up to episode 8 (out of 13) in the States, and most people wish the killer was CBS - the show is terrible.

    I watched it last night and didn't think it was too bad, tbh. Maybe it's because I'm a fan of Twin Peaks and this reminds me of better times. I kind of like the over the top american soap acting and it's so cliché ridden that it makes it kind of fun guessing which cliché will be next. The only downside I've seen so far are the stupid murders.
    The first one was a little overly elaborate, so I hope they try and explain why so much effort was put into it. And Harry Hamlin's deathwas a bit too odd. I mean, how lucky was the killer that Hamlin stepped on the broken part oft he bridge? And for a man being hacked in half, he seemed remarkable calm.

    I'll keep watching it, only because there's feck all else on on a Monday.

    The killer isn't obvious so far in the States, although it's ultimately gonna be a stupid ending no matter what happen if you ask me. That latest episode in the US was actually a bit more entertaining than the first few, so if they keep that up until the end of the season, it should be decent enough for the last few episodes.
    Katie Cassidy
    is reason enough for me to keep watching.

    Glad I waited until I watched the episode to read this Richard. Way to ruin the show on the RTÉ viewers...
    It was a good episode though.

    Episode 5....dire, boring except for a very very end scene. I have been watching but the show has totally NOT lived up to any hype it may have had. It's badly written and acted, it's very much like a daytime soap opera with hints of trying to be Saw....as in traps,pits and other such nonsense.

    All the characters are unlikable, they are dull and uninteresting

    Probably best the air the last two back to back - there's only characters I like left and some of them need to die yet, so it'll be nice to be put out of misery in one go rather than waiting another week

    Ok just finished watching episode 11 and i thought it just made a turn for the worse.I know its a few eps behind on rte so ill say my reason in a
    Twice in this episode,John wakefield stands in front of them with a sword,while they have guns..They then shoot at him and miss..He then just gos up to them and kills them.Before this episode i loved the mystery behind everything and some of the complex killings.Now it just seems like a mindless witch hunt that has lost all of the uniqueness about the story

    What do the rest of ye think?
