Such a shame. The acting is really spot on and right until almost the end we really enjoyed it. But when the curtain is drawn and the plot is finally revealed, the story is completely shattered. And as a viewer, you are left to wonder, it retrospect, what on earth you have been watching. The story, on a superficial level at least, is about a man going insane over his wife cheating on him with 3 different men. Of which one, he can't identify. But there's a dreadful suspicion. He is going through a severe crisis and he is immensely hurt by his wife's cheating. And as a viewer, you sympathize, how could you not, right? So, spoiler alert, she only cheated on him because he had cheated on her. And in the final episode, last 5 minutes, she simply confronts him with this. And he is just as amazed as you are as a viewer, because it makes no sense.
It's like watching a movie about a man who suffers due to the murder of his dog. And you sympathize. And in the final episode and after hours of watching, you learn that he first killed the dog of the man who later murdered is dog. And the entire story doesn't make sense anymore. Why did the main character kill the other man's dog, and does he not understand that the murder of his own dog, is a simple quid pro quo.
Bad example? I dare you to watch this mini series. And then reflect on this example again.
This plot reveal is so incredibly mundane and boring, not to mention completely illogical with the actions and emotions of the main character, that the series just completely comes undone.
