Absentia (2017)
Cánt give it a 10 it deserves because :-
The sound quality is appalling , and I usually rate the sound output of my Sony Bravia tv but the male lead and the other male FBI agent are really difficult to understand . Perhaps it would be better with a proper cinema amp set for voice enhancement . It is further spoiled by loud music at times which make your tv speakers reverberate . You find yourself frequently adjusting the volume.
Regardless I found the storyline gripping , never predictable and with good acting . So far I have watched season one and most of season two.
A few niggles which I will try to forgive as the story is so good - at one point Emily breaks into her brother's flat and upon leaving steals a car & hotwires it , this would never work as you can see a red led flashing on the dashboard showing it would have an immobiliser alarm !
When she finds the body buried in the woods her reaction is over the top - surely she expected to find something sinister ? & she is a trained FBI agent after all .
Still my wife and I are gripped by it , so we will persevere .
