Damages - The Complete 1st Season reviews

This is my favourite drama series on TV. After you've watched this show it makes other drama shows seem dull, lifeless and unintelligent. The characters are so interesting, with hidden agendas etc – add this to numerous has plot twists and a plot which runs the whole series with a great conclusion and you've got the best drama show on TV right here. I can't wait for series two and three to come out!

When they say riveting – they are right ! I just I couldn't stop watching. Glenn Close does a fantastic job of portraying the “nasty” and manipulative Patty Hewes. Ted Danson plays a great support role in Frobisher (So different to Sam in Cheers). I don't know if I had ever seen Rose Byrne in any other movies but she seems to develop as an actor as the movie progresses. I'd suggest watching this over a wet weekend – but don't expect to get any house work done!

Deep plot and engrossing.

The show/series starts off slow but once you work out who all the “players”/anta­gonists/prota­gonists are then it gets interesting. Lots of (other favourite) actors that are well known in other series which make appearances in the show. Overall not a bad show.

This is a fantastic and enthralling story, with very good actors. We ended up sitting up far too late at night on several occasions because we were so intrigued. The timeline of the story goes backwards and forwards a lot, which annoyed my husband slightly, but I could appreciate the benefit of doing that. At times I felt a bit lost with the storyline, but it all came together perfectly. Don't panic if you feel slightly lost occasionally. We are now longing to see series two.
