PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

jabandrade Great show , underestimated in the ratings, and perhaps by the rush of people. I think there are people who give rate without watch all the episodes. Real, nervous at times , intriguing in other, great actors, real-world characters, dedicated direction. A show that captivates you and puts you inside.Furthermore it has the wonderful Uma Thurman, one of the most beautiful actresses I've ever seen on this planet. But who really surprising is Zachary Quinto. A dynamo as the unstable Greek. But all cast is correct . I would give 7.5 but as don't have this option, I gave 8 . Watch without expectations. You'll be surprised. A pity that did not guarantee a 2nd season. I think people prefer to think little .

johnnymike91 While the title (and premise) of the series do come off as comical, The Slap is daring to take Network TV viewers to a place where we question our choices and our way of thinking. One small decision can spiral into a massive event that drastically changes everyone's lives around us. We have no idea what personal issues another person may be dealing with, or how we may affect them. What each episode of this compelling miniseries forces us to do is confront a different controversial issue in today's society, and decide what we believe is right. Some people may argue that these characters are cliché and melodramatic. But the truth is, we all know people exactly like them, and we are guaranteed to confront some of these issues within our own lives. When these events occur, there's no predicting how another person will behave. The Slap is a guidebook to show how we should react, when others don't know how. We need to set the example, to prevent the disasters which happen in this series. Society still has a long way to go. But by watching this series, we may gain some insight into being better people and caring neighbors.This series may not have been as compelling or dramatic as the original, but it did bring a fresh take on an event that brought very different outcomes.

steven_cady Seriously how is this even a TV show. I tried the first episode because of the all-star cast (Peter Sarsgaard, Thandie Newton, Zachary Quinto, Brian Cox, Uma Thurman, and Penn Badgley). When will I learn my lesson? My advice is to stay away unless you want something pointless and tasteless on your TV for some background noise.Although there is SOME good such as hearing Victor Garber's voice as the narrator was a plus. Peter Sarsgaard puts an admirable attempt to make the character likable. Also it was good to see Makenzie Leigh again after seeing her time in Gotham end prematurely. IMDb has it at a 5.7. That's a bit generous. 3/10 is my vote.

lynch-bobbiesue I can't even begin to state how horrible this show is. Pure trash. Disgusting premise, nauseating story line, and mental retardation are all this show encompass. The glorification of children no longer being taught common decency along with pansy parents who take zero responsibility in how their kids behave is a very real and current societal problem today. While I will not continue watching this series, I am left with wondering what the intended point of this show even is. It certainly isn't for comedic value. Maybe it's just propaganda for the looney-left in their inane crusade against morals, ethics, and just plain decency. Not to mention, the blatant adultery adds absolutely zero value to the already failing foundation. The writers of this hogwash should be ashamed of themselves.
