The Tourist, 2020 & 2024. NO SPOLIERS this is more of an overview then a review if you get my drift.
Following a car crash, Elliot has lost his memory, he meets a rookie cop Helen. He helps him find himself. Helen has sa overbearing controlling husband to be. There's lots of quirky character's and villains. The cop with the colostomy bag for example. Every thing isn't what is seems. In Helen we have an awkward "plain Jane" and sexually unsure of her attraction falling for the drop dead gorgeous Elliot., you can understand why the female viewer loved this.
Then we jump 2 years on for the Tourist season 2, , Elliott is still trying to find himself, but this is more of Helen's doing then his, she is a rookie cop after all (or should that be detective) They end up in Ireland Elliott's birthplace, only now we deiscover he is called Eugene, and he is the son of one half of the warring Cassidy's in their turf was with the MacDonall's. It soon becomes apparents thay they have slung a very silly and contrived plot together, adding additional implausible characters. Helen's ex Ethan is back on the scene and he along with the bumbling cop Ruairi are the only saving grace in the 2nd season If there is to be a 3rd season hope it centre's around these two.
In a nutshell, season 1 good, season 2 bad.
Overall 5/10.
