After having seen the first 4 episodes I was ready to throw in the
towel and completely ignore this show. Still, I wanted to find out who
the killer was. If only to find out if I was right. To inquire if this
show showed some improvement I started to read the user comments on
this site. And all the positive (especially the recent) ones did get me
curious. I must admit that I didn't really expect much improvement. Was
I glad to be proved wrong. And trust me to admit something like that
isn't easy for me to do. The last fifteen minutes of the fifth episode
this show suddenly changes it's tone and pace. While the pace still is
not that fast it does however provide the suspense I was craving for
from the beginning. From the sixth episode until the final, this show
never let's down. Even when you can predict the outcome the writers do
have succeeded to build in some traps to mislead us. Of course this
show is full of clichés and doesn't do anything new. It does however
manage to entertain you till the last minute. Too bad it does take more
than five episodes to really grab the viewer. But if you can endure
those tedious first five episodes than you will be treated for some
solid suspense. And that is the main reason for watching a show like
this isn't it?
