The British do this so much better with their limited series. For me, personally, I’m not a fan of the hastily construed “To Be Continued.” And in the end, after satisfyingly resolving most of the mysteries, the writers chose to patchwork a direction for continuation. “Tell Me Your Secrets” does a good job of keeping the mystery alive and joining the threads. Bodie, of course, like everyone else, is not who he seems to be and Thomas straddles that line nicely until he too falls prey to Grand Guignol-style villainy. A surprise is in store when Richard Thomas shows up as Bodie Lord, scion of the village. Seemingly sympathetic and helpful, there is an unidentifiable dark undercurrent to his character. Always an idiosyncratic actor, it takes him a couple of episodes before he is wearing his villain in a more believably creepy manner.Įnrique Murciano, Pete, is the representation of the missing shades of gray. Hamish Linklater as John takes a bit longer to find his character. Even when she makes turns that defy credulity, she is still watchable.

Wavering between guilty and innocent, haunted and self-assured, she is the glue to the series and the best reason to keep watching.Īmy Brenneman as Mary must have loved the chance to play the villain after so many heroic characters. As Emma/Karen, Lily Rabe grabs your attention and doesn’t let go. The cast is amazing, and once the rough edges are knocked off after a couple of episodes, they are riveting. The fun is getting to the end, and that is where the fun ends because there is no end, just a haphazard finish to lead into a new season that will start out with even less nuance than the first one. Of course there is an exception to that, and of course it is Emma, more innocent victim than even she suspects. The villains in the piece, and in one way or another, most of the characters are evil even if you don’t know it yet, go deeper and deeper into the dark side until it is where they live at all times. There is a lot of black and white and not an abundance of gray. Like most soap operas, nuance is a word and not an action. So many threads, so many plots, so many people and for the most part Walter is able to keep all those balls in the air. All is not right in this village as Emma soon finds out when a young woman from the local care home suddenly goes missing. But, because of the nature of the murders she was associated with and because she eventually gave evidence against her boyfriend, she is released into witness protection and given a new identity: Emma Hall. The psychologist, Pete Guillory, hides Karen, now Emma, in a small town on a lake where he has a cabin and a mysterious history.

Though streamers like Prime Video are typically pretty tight-lipped about their viewership numbers, it's safe to assume that Tell Me Your Secrets underperformed, which led Amazon to lose interest in the project.

And a Labour minister has given her view on a row between Jess Phillips and. Reviews were middling at best for Tell Me Your Secrets season 1 (via Rotten Tomatoes), but a bad critical reception is rarely enough for a show to be canceled as long as viewers are tuning in. Steve Barclay accused junior doctors of 'walking away' from talks ahead of strikes this month on Sophy Ridge on Sunday. The pandemic years of 20 saw a mad dash for new streaming content to keep up with the demand, and it is highly likely that Amazon didn't see the return on investment that they had hoped for when they purchased the once-scrapped thriller series. Curiously, the show has not been officially canceled either, though the years of silence seem to suggest that the project is dead in the water.
