Review of Innocent

Innocent (2018–2021)
7/10
Neither Killer Makes Sense

Warning: Spoilers
SEASON ONE :

I was on the edge of my seat while watching season one of Innocent. With David being innocent there was three likely suspects who had motive and opportunity to kill Tara. I think the writers tried way too hard to give viewers a surprise ending but in order for that to work the twist has to make sense. Alice or Tom being the killer would've been perfect and it would've made sense. Viewers see Phil as nothing but a loving and supportive older brother who's lost everything after standing by David.

It makes no sense whatsoever that suddenly he's always been jealous and because of that he killed Tara. What a coincidence that both Tara and David had older siblings who were jealous of them because they had kids and were wealthy. It's too convenient.

SEASON TWO :

Sally is a teacher who's just been released from prison after serving five years for killing her 16yr old student. A time stamped photo came to light that proves she couldn't have killed Matthew. Another student testified that Sally was having an affair with Matthew at the time of his death.

Sally lost her job, her pregnancy, and her husband when she was wrongly convicted. Her husband Sam is now engaged to someone else.

Again viewers are given four suspects who actually could've killed Matthew and all of them would've been a good pick. Instead of going with a killer that actually makes sense the writers again try to throw in a surprise killer that no one would suspect.
