Review of Bancroft

Bancroft (2017–2020)
3/10
Strong start, runs out of steam early, weak finish
24 September 2018
This is one of those series that starts off well but quickly runs out of steam and ideas. It has multiple plot lines with a story that starts in the middle of events. By about the third episode it becomes apparent that the writers have run out of ideas and just start manufacturing events to try and make things interesting, almost as if it's on a trial and error basis. Some of these events are just not at all credible, others have little or no relevance and quickly cause the viewer to see through the holes in the plot and lose interest. By the fourth and final episode, the viewer is able to heave a sigh of relief that the series is over but by then also realize that they have wasted their time in watching it!
