The Family. What are you
thinking of? No, I am not going to talk about the royal family. I am
excited to share with you my impressions about the TV series “The
Family”.
Strong cast and
intriguing, fast-moving plot with a lot of flashbacks to make the
picture full.
In the first episode you
meet the family which faces one of the toughest tragedy which parents
only can be struck by – a kidnapping of their little baby. How you
would handle such a situation?
And after 10 years passed
the kidnapped baby appears... He was in bunker all this 10 years,
alone in the dark bunker and only that monster who put him there to
do the most disgusting things.
He comes back in his
family. Is it still his family? How family can accept the baby they
lost many years ago? Especially when this family is the family of the
mayor of the city who is going to run for a governor, family which is
almost fallen apart but must stick together due to the reappeared son
and coming election. Also do not forget that the criminal who did
this to their family is still somewhere out there.
The family has a lot thing
to handle. Thankfully, there is a daughter who is always cold-blooded
and extremely responsible. Perhaps, she is handling too much and even
without telling all problems to rest of the family. Would she be able
to be that cunning all the time? Or is it the older brother who is so
unreliable would shake the situation to the edge?
There is still the coming
election. Therefore the mother must think not just about her family
but about the politics and turn to the gold everything what has
happened. Her husband is already out of his patience with all this
election campaign and having an affair.
And again – the criminal
is still out there...
As you might see (I tried
to put it that way) that the plot will take you with it and will not
leave you till the end of the season.
Here it is a bitter pill
to swallow – there is only one season consisted of 12 episodes. May
be for someone it is the plus and additional motive to start watching
it. Suit yourself.
Anyway, see this TV
series. No doubt, you will like it.
P.S. For them who watched
“The Sherlock”, you will be pleasantly surprised to see Rupert
Graves in new role.
