How sad is this?

Fantastic!

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

English people have a habit of surprising me when it comes to TV program. Because contrary to the US censorship against sex, violence and stuff, English series feels a lot more open. Sinchronicity is the best example of the deconstructed narrative structure, the virtuosity of the actors, the honesty of the topic you can only find on BBC.Honestly, if you enjoy Sex & the City, forget about it ! There is not a single actor there measuring up to the cast of Sinchronicity. The short format helps a lot: No need to try being clever every week when you're doing a 6-episode series. So it's dense, funny, sexy (Jemima, I love you!), complex, tender, sometimes completely abstract and really funny (yeah, I know, I wrote it already but British humor kills me). Every little detail is perfect, and honestly, I've never had more fun with any other show.In short : This show kicks monkeys' ass ! Watch it, buy it, do something but don't die without having seen it ! It's the best show about relationships, love and friendship ever made !

I was first drawn in to watch this by the promise of Paul Chequer. I hadn't seen him in anything since As If and was interested to see if he could do anything else. The addition of Jemima Rooper (also from As If) and Navin Chowdry (already shown considerable talent in Teachers and Nylon) made this a must watch.I was not disappointed. Excellently paced with trips and back and forward in time to keep you thinking as well as watching this is the kind of clever drama we should expect to see on BBC3.Inevitably this will be compared with As If and I think it comes off better as a more mature and thoughtful drama focusing on the rights and wrongs of lying to protect others.The ending was brilliant - both sides of the story would have been worthy of an ending and it just shows how small things can change lives. A second series would be welcomed if they can find a way to keep it as fresh and meaningful as the first.

Truly, truly an excellent programme. I'm sure I'm too old at 33 for the actual demographic that this programme is aimed at. But having been a fan of the likes of This Life, Green Wing and Teachers etc, it was right up my street.We need Series 2, or at least a Christmas Special!!All the actors are superb and of course Fi is a lovely looking girl. Nathan is an excellent lead and I'm surprised to say I've not seen him before...that is not to say he hasn't been in stuff before, more likely it's me not watching the right things.Come on BBC, let's have another series. There's plenty of story lines that can be followed up and new ones created. Are they happy in Manchester or 200 miles apart? Do Jase and Mani live happily ever after? Does the transsexual get through the operation okay? Do we see the owner of the rabbit again?

When I saw the trailers for this I thought that it was actually a sequel to As If, as two of the three central cast members are the same. The direction and visual style was pretty identical too, down to the fast edits, playing around with the linear structure, and direct to camera pieces.Despite this, the first episode did have a distinctive, separate tone and identity. It was balanced well between drama and comedy, and although the "twist" was somewhat predictable, it was revealed well by effective time shifts.The characters are all well-rounded and likable, with interesting conflicts. Three main actors all do a great job, especially Jemima Rooper as Fi. I look forward to seeing how it all unravels, and will definitely tune in for episodes 2 and 3.
