I never thought I would like anything made by D###, since all the characters are either too good, or whenever they are evil, they are watered down to be kind of good. But I really enjoyed Culprits, the show is basically a heist show, which is my favorite kind of shows, my most favorite show of all time is absolutely la casa de papel.
The show starts with Joe Petrus AKA Muscle played by actor Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, who was recruited by Dianne AKA brain to make a very dangerous heist.
Afterwards, two cops try to recruit Joe Petrus to be a snitch inside their org, threatening him with imprisonment for life if he didn't cooperate, for my surprise Joe Petrus actually had balls to refuse their offer, and cover for the lovely villainess, which made me know that the show will get so intersting and not some boring cop show, what made the show even better is that the two cops were in fact recruited by the beautiful villainess to test Joe Petrus's loyalty and reliability, which means that heroes are out of the equation and it's fun time.
The show is actually one of the best shows I ever watched, it's rare nowadays that you have a show that make you feel intensity, excitement and happiness at the end, Joe Petrus was one of my favorite protagonists, the show is also revolutionary and bold, not lame and tasteless as many other shows recently, the characters aren't perfect in anyway, they aren't protected either, it's a fair game, the writing was great, all characters are unique in their own way, they aren't some cheap copies of the same character they have depth, and you will absolutely enjoy their conversations, like the part when the crew went to Dianne asking her if she's gonna apologize for putting them in deep shit, and she's like "nope".
Dianne is absolutely my favorite, she's a beautiful, cruel, cold villainess, and I really like how she make it clear that she have a moral code even tho she do bad stuff, when she was faced by the man who they stole from.
The show would be much better if not the flashback, like, there are some key events happening in the past, like life and death situation, and by knowing that such characters will survive anyways, you feel nothing, it make the scene less intense, and would be much better if it was in real time, and such intense situation would be a great ending of the episode..
