logueybear Nothing about Afterlife feels fake in fact the spirits feel as real as the characters. What helps Afterlife become a great show is its outstanding cast in Andrew Lincoln who plays Robert brilliantly and Lesly Sharp who brings a reality to the character of Alison, the directing is done simply, never trying to be too clever and the writing which brings in each episode a great story that is both scary, thought provoking and emotional. This is superb TV and storytelling done right. The phrase 'less is more' sums up the approach I feel they took to making it and it pays off. Whatever you do, just watch this.
brandonarkell After watching this entire series, I was quite simply stunned by how dramatic, powerful, and moving it was. Writer Stephen Volk and his colleagues managed masterfully to weave in elements of an unsettling and haunting nature with messages of emotionally profound beauty.The series successfully incorporates psychological horror, real-life human problems, and deep philosophical questions into a compelling narrative. It almost plays as a fiery intellectual debate in dramatic form. The characters are so real and so animated, and their relationships so dynamic, that they keep you utterly rapt.The acting by Lesley Sharp and Andrew Lincoln is phenomenal. Sharp's world-weary cynicism and Lincoln's naive intellectualism are almost palpable. The writing is phenomenal. Even the choreography and attention to detail are spot-on. A great work, and probably my favourite television series.And for those who hate emotion, this one might just prove to be a tear-jerker by the very end.
Gail Anderson I just finished watching most of the Afterlife made for TV series, season 1&2. The series had me from the first show and I wanted to say thank you. I wasn't sure what to expect from the title, "Afterlife." There has been only a few good drama/phenomenon series that I can recall that has the same good mix of characters like this; One being X-Files and the other Medium.Did this UK TV series make it over to Canada or is it in syndication? It's too bad that there is only 2 seasons of the show. Maybe, the producers can make the sets available in CD box set here in Canada?It would be a good addition to the Drama or phenomenon collection.
mosthaunted_nofan This was truly the best drama of 2005. i was a huge fan of afterlife and i am extremely please that clerkenwell films have been commissioned to complete a second series, this time running for 8 shows instead of the previous 6. Lesley Sharp and Andrew Lincoln seem to have that perfect on screen chemistry which made the tension and shock factor a perfect combination. I would give this show 10 / 10. The show producers and writers etc, should be recognised for there work. Every episode had you hooked which was truly great and especially seems they answered the storyline on the same episode. perfect viewing recommend 100%. Excellent mixture of a paranormal show.
