      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Bodkin's satire of true crime investigation could use a more compelling mystery to hang its quips on, but the series' sheer eccentricity makes for an intriguing enough tale from the old sod.

      Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Neither too dark nor too light, this seven-episode Netflix mystery series makes a enjoyable watch. Rated: 2.5/4 May 17, 2024 Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) The ratatat retorts and eyebrow-raised insults don’t have the giddy delight delivered by Steve Martin and co, but the show picks up from a utilitarian opening to provide an enjoyable hybrid of comedy and conspiracy. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2024 Full Review Rachel Cooke New Statesman The satire feels too muted, lost in a thicket of shamrock jokes that are doubtless aimed mostly at the Americans in the audience. All the same, I quite like it: the acting, the plotting, the generalised weirdness. May 10, 2024 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express Chances are that the entire nation of Ireland might come out of this feeling like Kazakhstan did after the first Borat movie. May 18, 2024 Full Review Martin Carr martincarr.co.uk This true crime drama may start off slow, but builds through subtle character creation into something quite special. Highlights beyond the central trio include David Wilmot as Seamus Gallagher and his assorted reprobates. May 15, 2024 Full Review Milagros Amondaray La Nación (Argentina) The series strikes the perfect balance between portraying Irish idiosyncrasy and investigating the mysterious disappearance of three people the Bodkin folk don't seem too concerned with.

      Shabana E Siobhan Cullen did a great job but her character is SO unlikeable and thee wasn’t enough time to redeem her character. The mystery was good but could have been more compelling and profound, I enjoyed it but it need some work. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/17/24 Full Review Chas J It’s fine to pass the time but is also rather annoying. The female lead is insufferable and the jokes don’t always land. It’s no murders in the building and most of the characters are extremely unlikeable. Did I mention it’s annoying af… cause it really is Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/24 Full Review Aaron K When is this fad of making the female lead a complete asshole going to end? Siobhan's character makes this show unwatchable. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/16/24 Full Review Kyle J Watch the first 30 minutes to see if you like the tone, which i believe is dry humor. The story would have been better served told in three episodes. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/16/24 Full Review Gareth v Not bad, but definely not great. A murder whodunnit in a small town, with a bunch of off-beat characters is a well trodden path (and often a good one), but this is letdown by a muddled story and jokes that just fall flat. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/16/24 Full Review M. M Loved the mix of characters, loved the setting in Ireland, loved that each episode seemed better than the previous one. Definitely worth a watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
