mightym0729 I watched this show on Hulu Plus. I wish there was a third season. I found all the characters intriguing. The series left me wanting more. I watched all the episodes in two days. I felt emotion at the death of the characters because of how well each character's personality was expressed. I think maybe the timing of this show was off because everyone is looking for the supernatural shows now. Maybe this show was ahead of its time...I think that this show could have new characters each season because of where the show was set up, and never get boring. I hope you reconsider a third episode.I think that if you continued this show now you would have a strong audience.

Dan Bayliss Jed (Theo James) sees ghosts and how they died. Put him and an attractive cast in an old mental asylum that is now converted into luxury apartments and you get an enjoyable easy going, light hearted glossy horror. The location is spooky and ideal for the setting.The series and the twists pick up as it progresses. If I were to pick any flaw, it would be to ask how all these people can afford such nice apartments decorated so well? I am eagerly awaiting the 6th episode as it's really all coming together and everything looks to kick off.Don't expect anything new, but unlike other reviews I doubt you will hate it or feel you wasted time watching.

Gon F. (GreenArrow) I was really looking forward to watching what Bedlam had to offer after the beautifully shot trailer. A dark, twisted drama set in an Asylum with ghosts all over the place - just my cup of tea!Unfortunately, after watching the second episode I made up my mind (I gave it another chance after a poor first episode), and I am not watching it again... it's like watching Scooby Doo with less scares! Terrible acting (I don't have anything against Will Young, but he should go back to singing...), inefficient jump scenes, technology driven ghosts, scary skid marks (seriously?), unnecessary bare chest men... the only bit that's mildly interesting is the two seconds flashbacks you get per episode showing you something that happened in the Asylum. That's it. Two seconds.Needless to say, after watching the second episode (yes, I didn't even make it to the third one) - I am not watching this again. I'll probably watch the brilliant trailer over and over again now, which is surely that amazing because no one speaks! Disappointing.

Aoife O' Leary The much advertised first episode of Bedlam aired on Monday. While it is a good premise for a show, the idea of a creepy mental asylum is an exhausted location in TV and film (Kingdom Hotel, Shutter Island, Hellbound: Hellraiser II, even Supernatural had an episode based on a haunted asylum).The first episode ' Cohabitants' centers around Kate, an estate agent working with the sale of Bedlam Heights, a mental asylum being renovated into apartments. The character of Kate sort of rubbed me the wrong way, she came across as cold and uncaring to me. Kate lives in Bedlam Heights with her flatmates, Ryan and Molly. Her cousin, Jed, turns up to 'Save Kate' after he receives numerous text messages from an undisclosed source.The characters are not very deep and the acting is a tiny bit stilted, I hope there will be more time given in future episodes to learn more about their histories, as it seemed we were only given a crash course into their past. There was subplot, involving Ryan's brother who had died a year ago but not much else was mentioned about Ryan's life.I don't see how they'll stretch a whole season out of it, the plot has a lot of clichés and it was quite slow moving in parts.It is defiantly influenced by the horrors and thrillers that have gone before it. Having said that, Will Young put in a surprisingly strong performance and the action scenes were quite well done. For a British show with a low budget, it's a breath of fresh air for Monday night viewing. I'll be very interested to see how the show and its characters progress and I will be tuning in next week.
