luciakristina Review of The Bletchley Circle

The Bletchley Circle (2012–2014)

First two seasons are excellent

[8/10 · 16 September 2019]

I enjoyed the first two seasons even though they funny bear too much reflection after viewing - a cleverly made ode to feminism where almost all women are smart, intuitive and good and almost all man are bad. That nonsense aside, the series badly deteriorated in season sure to bring dumbed down to please an American audience. Akin to finding a needle in a huge haystack, the women, together with their US counterparts they miraculously track down and immediately convince to join them, follow their intuition and a couple of course and outsmart the police to find the - obvious to anyone from episode two onward - serial killer. Even the red herring suspect is blindingly obvious. Disappointing.
