The Thaw: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Shane Ryan Paste Magazine The problem is, the clichés cannot be everything. And if the clichés are everything, it cannot be just one cliché dominating all the others into submission. With The Thaw, the overwhelming cliché is simple bleakness.

Lisa L Great characters, interesting plot twists. The plots and the people are complex, like real people are. Moments of humor. Interesting personalities of her colleagues fun to watch the work dynamics.Love the lead character, strong intelligent woman. Not perfect just like the rest of us. I like to see her try to balance work and home life, not easy and of course she works too much. She does however, solve cases. She is good at what she does. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/06/24 Full Review Ryan S Loved it. Well done Polish series. Complicated characters, superb leading lady... a thoroughly good romp. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/03/24 Full Review zombiewack This is a unique top quality thriller with superb acting. Sick of shallow easy to predict plots? Then this show is for you. It is a binge worthy series that keeps you engaged in the characters and their flawed personalities. A must see! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/01/23 Full Review Gunn W THAW left me feeling ICE COLD!This was a series of 6 episodes (although, it doesn't say there won't be more - I just won't be watching them). I'm not sure what they'd do in additional episodes, it seems the case was summed up - I suppose they could do an anthology style show?The acting and voiceover (in English) was excellent, it was the STORYLINE - 3 thumbs down! It's just a hot mess of characters who are drunks, then not drunks... suspicious, then trustworthy... and EVERYBODY has lost somebody in their family rather recently, with 1 man having lost both a wife and daughter. But of course, we're trying to find a way to connect ALL of this?? When you are introducing NEW CHARACTERS in the 5th and 6th episode, something has really gone WRONG!!! I couldn't believe how much time they spent dragging you along this sssllllooowwww tale, only to shove everything in the last 2 episodes. I was bored out of my mind!!! Even the ending wasn't some big payoff, making it worth my time to watch episodes 1-4. I just felt cheated out of my time. SUGGESTION: Skip it!! Unless you like watching paint dry (and the paint is 15 different colors, swirled into nothing recognizable). Then, after it dries, they rush back and throw another 10 colors on top of that. It's just stupid! Save your time!!! Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/10/23 Full Review Christopher H Extremely well photographed and edited- plot is believable. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/30/23 Full Review Cheryl O I was hooked from the start. Its an edge of your seat drama, much like The Tunnel and The Bridge. Hope there is a season 2 Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
