When their recently widowed mother, Vivien, falls in love with a new man, Mark, and introduces him to Jake, Natalie and Helen, they greet him with a mix of excitement, optimism and outrage.

      Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Watching these actors over the course of Flesh and Blood is consistently enjoyable... Alas, the story line, written by Sarah Williams, is a bit less compelling, as it goes through all the familiar moves to manipulate our assessment of the new boyfriend. Oct 7, 2020 Full Review Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal The appeal of the children's stories can't be overstated -- they're the essential strength of this drama, the core of its unfailing suspense. Oct 2, 2020 Full Review John Doyle Globe and Mail Flesh and Blood is a first-rate thriller, all twisty and featuring great performances. Oct 1, 2020 Full Review Diane Pershing Malibu Times It's not great film-making, lacking something at its center, perhaps someone we can earnestly root for. But I'll tune in for the rest of the episodes, for sure. Oct 19, 2020 Full Review Ani Bundel WETA Viewers are left to discern where the truth lies with these characters, all of whom are lying openly, lying covertly, or lying to themselves. Oct 7, 2020 Full Review Sara Wallis Daily Mirror (UK) [A] brilliantly intense crime thriller. Mar 3, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
