Good concept, poorly executed.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Benedict Cumberbatch is brilliant as Patrick Melrose. I must confess that in the middle of the first episode I considered not watching anymore as it is a very distressing issue however I am glad I did. This series touches on many issues and speaking out against what is wrong and defending children at all costs is paramount.

I couldn't manage to read the books. I tried but the story about the boy Patrick, knowing it was based on reality, and being a mother of two boys myself was too much. But tv is another thing and I am very glad for this adaption. Episode one maybe being a bit over the top but after that it turned into one of the best family dramas I have seen. In many ways reminding me of Bridshead revisited.Benedict Cumberbatch is amazing and so is all the other characters. I can't imagine what it took out of Hugo Weaving to play such a cruel role...A must see and a future classic.

He is the lead motif for me to see the first episode. I do not know the books. so, Patrick Melrose remains, in my case, more an incarnation of ordinary gay and his fight to escape to the answers to society. and, as schyzoid, I admit , Patrick Melrose is more than a seductive/familiar character. and the impecable performance of Cumberbatch is the axis of splendid project . that is all.

If The first episode were a movie Cumberbatch would get an Oscar
