Informer; a dark and amazing espionage journey


Informer; NOUN
a person who informs on another person to the police or other authority.

I’m a fan of deep, dark and complex tv shows; even more so if it involves espionage and spies. Informer is all of these shows rolled up into one and one hell of a show it is too.

Informers features scared and flawed characters as the heroes and the berated enemies de-joure; extreme jihadists' wanting to end our mindless but albeit comfortable existence. This is one show that weaves is web of lies, truths and everything in-between into your world as is leaves you wanting more.

As per usual with a UK production this is a six part series, which is just enough to tell the very deep story of each and every character in Informer, plus some.

When a show consistently gets around 80-85 percent out of 100, you know you are in for a real treat, no matter how dark and somber the journey is along the way.

Best of all, the entire series is available for free on iView catch-up in Australia. So strap yourself in for a deep dark and satisfying journey.

After Life; A melancholy series that won't disappoint

After Life; the Netflix series written and directed by Ricky Gervais is simply amazing. If you are someone who likes a deeply meaningful story to have a beginning, middle and ending, then this is one for you.

After Life as a series has a purpose; it’s a show that demonstrates that it’s okay to be sad and even manically depressed at times as it all has a place, time and purpose. I’m certain that the countless amount of people (including myself) who are suffering or have suffered from depression will appreciate the thoughtfulness Ricky Gervais has put into writing this story.

Ricky’s acting is worthy of a gold medal, in my opinion. It strikes me as ironic that such a happy person can play a deeply suffering character with such conviction and commitment. Take note Hollywood; this is how fine acting is done.

After Life is on showing on Netflix now, if you are in a melancholy mood, this amazing show will accompany you along your journey.
