Who Is Erin Carter?

What a terrible series. The most frustrating aspect was the false hope the creators instilled in me during the fourth and fifth episodes, only to brutally dash it in the finale. They treated the show like a cartoon where anything goes, but the lack of logic left a sour taste in my mouth. I can only muster a very generous two stars for this one. / Lesson learned: Even a mouse can scare an elephant. (2024-02-19)

After watching the first episode, it's pretty clear to me that the show will be quite weak. I hesitated to give it my usual three-star rating because, well, it felt a bit lacking. The main actress didn't quite win me over, her daughter wasn't much better, and the script felt a bit off with too many oddities thrown in. I was particularly curious about how Erin would explain her looking like an MMA wrestler after a tough fight, but she just slept it off like a hangover. / Lesson learned: Avoid going to the supermarket right before closing time.

The second episode was even worse than the first one. While I was starting to get used to Evin Ahmad, Harper, as portrayed by Indica Watson, feels like a character from another planet altogether. But that's more of a personal quibble; the real issue lies in the weak script and the creators' apparent lapse in judgment. Why do they keep trying to convince me that fists, bricks, and other objects leave barely a mark after a violent encounter, especially on someone's face? / Lesson learned: When logic takes a vacation, expect things to get truly bizarre.

Ashley Way might just be one of those directors who excel at crafting C-grade movies and shows. Why do I say this? Well, he doesn't seem to mind that the material lacks logic, the plot feels like it was made up on the spot during filming, there's a complete absence of tension or atmosphere, and even the action scenes come off as pretty ridiculous (I've already mentioned the lack of consequences). What really gets me is the attempt to create some sort of mystery; it's hard to buy into it when I couldn't care less about the fate of anyone involved. / Lesson learned: If you're planning a life of crime, Spain might just be the perfect destination. The police response time here seems to be exceptionally long. (2024-02-18)

The obligatory explanatory episode surprisingly turned out to be one of the better ones so far. I wouldn't call it stellar, but at least it was somewhat enjoyable. The plot felt like a soft version of La Femme Nikita mixed with some undead animals, and I was tempted to let go of my random gripes, but in the end, I just can't. I've gotten used to the fact that someone who barely weighs fifty kilos can toss around hefty guys like it's nothing, but someone so short being a star basketball player is just too much for me to take. / Lesson learned: Having strong nerves is key to survival.

Surprisingly, I found myself enjoying the storyline at times and wanted to give credit where it's due — first time for everything, right? I just wish the creators had sidestepped the glaring blunders they've been tripping over since day one. Honestly, the series is a lost cause by now, but I still appreciate the effort. / Lesson learned: Do not attract unwanted attention. 3*- (2024-02-19)

The previous episode was marginally better in my view, but the sixth one suffered from numerous scriptwriting flaws again. To find the plot remotely plausible, I'd have to switch off my brain to the extent that only the sections controlling basic bodily functions were left running, with logical thinking completely shut down. P.S. The bartender's reaction to the guest with a battered face was priceless. Even Mickey Rourke or Ben Affleck couldn't maintain such a poker face. / Lesson learned: When strolling through Barcelona, always thoroughly inspect the contents of trash cans. You never know what you might find... (2024-02-19)

In the final episode, the creators completely abandoned any semblance of realism. While it was undeniably action-packed, it also veered into illogical and even foolish territory. I'm baffled by how certain things didn't bother any of the creators. The gunfire resembled something out of Verdun, yet the Barcelona police must have been on a siesta. Shot individuals displayed an alarming lack of concern for their injuries, and the abundance of blood failed to elicit any reaction. The list of inconsistencies goes on. / Lesson learned: Definition of a cliché - if there's an injured person in a dry, hot location, expect a scorpion to show up. (2024-02-19)
