Apples Never Fall (2024– )
7/10
Can't recommend, but can''t advice against watching it either
16 March 2024
I finished watching all episodes and I have to tell you that it is not really a mystery, or a detective story, or a whodunit, it is a family drama. You know how the whole series ends by the end of episode 1, unless you're a complete doofus.

When the mother goes missing, family issues arise and family members begin blaming each other and mostly their father.

There is also a look-back plot-line of a young woman who befriends the parents one day and stays with them for a period of time and that changes the family dynamics, effecting both parents and their adult children.

And there is, also, a nearly idiotic plot-line in today times of two not very bright detectives looking for a missing mother.

IMHO, all actors did a good job with their characters, especially Sam Neill, who plays the most complex and most human character.

I gave this series a 7 out of 10 because it's not awful like most Netflix shows, but not as great as it could've been. Hopefully, we wont get a second season as this story got wrapped up and concluded.

Overall, can't recommend, but can''t advice against watching it either.
