Cringe Inducing

Love the premise of this show, and I've tried to stick with it as there are aspects of the storyline that work well - but between the over-acting (particularly Nesbitt), bad accents, bad sets and concocted scenes - I can't recommend this show to anyone.

Listening to Nesbitt's 'Daddy' is on the cringe level of hearing 'Claire-bear' over and over again in 'Heroes'. Yes, we get it, Mr. Hyde is psychotic. And, yes, we understand that because the make up department had nothing else to work with than black hair dye to differentiate the 2 characters, you've got to go over top a little bit. But this is pure schlock. It's like watching a bad Jim Carrey movie - you know, the ones where he doesn't know how to turn off his In Living Color routines for the sake of the movie. Yeah - a bad version of that.

Still have one more episode, and I'll stick with it until the bitter end because I chain watch shows while I work out, and usually once I start, I stick with it because - well, I don't know. I did stick with one season of Revolution, and if I can do that, surely I can handle a 6th episode of Jekyll.

Thank god there are no more.
