Cleverman (2016–2017)
3/10
great idea, poor executions
20 December 2016
First things first, I really wanted to like it. After watching the first episode, I was really excited to watch this show. The main idea seemed new, fresh; it was a combo of dark fairy tales and brutal reality. But I think the execution is just too poor to make it a decent series. Episodes are slow paced, repetitive, they mull around the same thing over and over again. Acting of most characters is OK, the main guy is always kind of angry, bet he wakes up like that. The main characters were my greatest issue with this show: they are absolutely disgusting, they represent all what your grandma told you not to be. Also, character development is lacking, I felt like only in episode 6 something has actually changed. Thus,without bringing in any spoiler, the show is slow-paced, lacks story development, and has some poor acting. I recommend watching only first and sixth episodes, as it will be enough to enjoy the show
