Sadly Over-hyped

Absolutely the worst movie.

Absolutely amazing

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

I loved this from start to finish and hope there will be another season! Great characters and plot. Unlike negative reviewers , I loved the quirky drama. Aussies do quirky brilliantly. Thanks to all concerned!

I only watched this show in the first place, because of Ioan Gruffudd, since I liked him very much in "Forever", and since I missed him after the show's unjust cancellation. "Harrow" is a Procedural, and as one of these it is pretty formulaic, like "Bones" over its many seasons. But it has also some interesting sidelines, like a partially disturbed daughter, who plays the homeless drifter out of rebellion, or because of other reasons that have to be revealed (I am through ep. 07), and a big mystery that involves a body, sunk by Harrow himself, that lands on his own table for forensic examination.One complaint here is that there is a strong resemblance to "Dexter", which is a complete misunderstanding of the first two episodes. Remember that Dexter is a serial killer, who channelizes his need for killing by viciously executing criminals who somehow escaped the legal system. He is deeply psychotic and a sociopath, though sympathetical and, sometimes, even justified.Harrow's work isn't anything like that, it's not even as bloody or gory as "Bones" is sometimes. Harrow himself is just an intelligent, capable, very good looking, with a voice of silk speaking chaotic Pathologist, most likely as he was in "Forever", but without the immortality.Every episode is structured alike, the said body from Harrow's secret gets some attention and progress, problems with his daughter and related to his ex-wife come to light, and a case is solved. And, since the main character seems to be solo since a long time (as he is very good looking, but also a nerd), he also gets kind of a love story.These ingredients, combined with decent acting, a bit of humor, and good production values make "Harrow" one of the better shows, if one wants to be entertained nicely. The father-doughter-troubles are somewhere interesting for me as a father of two daughters.I agree on some complaints that not every script is the most ingenious, there are some strange outcomes which may or may not be facepalm-worthy, but since "Bones" did that on a weekly basis (with additional SF elements) and succeeded, why shouldn't "Harrow" do somithing like that, too ?As a German native speaker, I do also realize that Ioan Gruffudd does have an accent a bit different than most of the other actors. But I do not understand the complaints, which are very similiar to those about other productions in the U.S., where foreigners play. By the way, it is nowhere said up to now, that Harrow is an Australian or spent his whole life in Australia.I give "Harrow" show a 7, hoping that it will see a second season.

Yes, there are elements of other crime dramas in Harrow - but there's elements of other crime dramas in all crime dramas! So putting that aside, this is an enjoyable show. Easy to watch and with some novel quirks of its own. Waiting to see just how 'dark' Harrow gets.

We can not trust the opinion of others, we should see with our own eyes. So, I watched this first episode of the show and I can say I liked it. I liked the acting of each actor. It seemed to me that everyone interpreted it naturally. All the scenes seemed to me to flow well. The show has its own identity. On the show there is a feeling of a new environment that we can enter and get to know. Who is this charming, sensitive character, concerned about the victims who come to his investigation? And his relationships, and his joviality, and the paternal interest in his daughter. I liked. There's a to make eyes at between Harrow and the cop who looks like the Forever series: I found that curious, and I liked it. And, why this captivating character: Harrow threw a corpse into the sea? What does he have to hide? He does not seem to me to be guilty. It's as if he had a secret he was forced to hide, but not that he was guilty. But why has he to hide ? Anyway, no doubt, I intend to continue watching the series. I was a little insecure because of the Forever series that I liked, and I was going to be comparing the two in a nostalgic way of the other. But it was okay, I can watch this series without me getting upset. Good luck Ioan Gruffudd with his new series. The show has conquered me.
