The thriller aspects are more intriguing over several episodes so far. I plan to continue to watch.
******* MAJOR SPOILERS*******
My biggest problem so far was the jarring contrast between scenes in a luxurious room, with Geller in a ball gown, while her African American best friend is sadistically tortured in order to locate her. The juxtaposition seemed grossly egregious.
Almost equal problem: That there is hardly any questioning of Bridget's portrayal of her twin. Nobody in Siobhan's life so far seem to know she was a twin, but that there is almost no puzzlement about differences in mannerisms, behavior, etc., There have to be a huge number.
I think It would add more interest if Siobhan's friends and family acted puzzled or even suspicious about more than just why she's become vaguely nicer. it would add nuance to see Bridget switching behaviors and adapting more. Would require real acting of course.
Other cons: why the director seems to have a microphone directed at Geller's footsteps a lot of the time. Too much heel tapping.
I accept that this show is aimed at women. I like the fashions. The ball gown was fab. I can lust after that closet. But there are too many repetitious scenes in it.
