Just downloaded and watched this series.........David Tennant's performances here and in Doctor Who prove that he is a God. I wish we had more stuff like Blackpool stateside.

Brilliant concept acted with brio.

This is absolutely brilliant; I'm interested in philosophy and on that level, this is also rewarding - the intensity of the acting is unsurpassed; the use of musical genres for emotional content is amazing. One ends up caring about the characters; it's a shame the series isn't literally continuous.

Only saw last episode, but it was too good. It is a kind of of musical melodrama which bends your ideas of reality out of shape, replacing one concept of reality for a more macabre ,less serious one. Some of the best one liners are delivered on it, ie. "You're a loser waiting for his life to start". The script is brilliant, and so is the delivery. It is daring comedy which does come off.

Initially, wasn't impressed. Thought it was hokey. However, once you get into the story and the deep character portrayals, it grows on you. The music is fantastic. David Morrisey and David Tennant are particularly talented (and as a female - may I say not too bad to look at). I look forward to it each week.

Another brilliant BBC mini series, but this one is so special that it's worth watching for the concept in itself! Even if you're no fan of 'musical' type shows, Blackpool breathes such a recognizable British atmosphere and combines this with such great performances from Morrissey and Tennant that it would be a shame not to watch this because of a review. Watch the show and make up your own mind, you won't be disappointed!

Mary Quite Contrary gave it a10:
Love it! Can't wait until next Monday night. David Morrisey is perfectly cast, and musical numbers are nicely used.

Scintillating, original and outrageous. This is a series that cannot be explained in a sentence or two; it must be experienced. Every aspect is exceptional from concept to acting to set decoration to song selection and on and on and on. If you want the comfortable, the usual and the ordinary, don’t watch this show.
