Definitely an interesting production. It feels like I am watching a noir film, but in a modern setting. Timeless story and personalities. Self-described addict to movies, which we see glimpses of from time to time, as if to show he imagines his life to be like one, with Bogart. The protagonist is a bit like a relict from the past. Lone gentleman in a suit, driving a vintage car, caring for the vulnerable, dealing with his own demons, longing for a mysterious woman, and who can see right through your deceit. Obvious allusions to the Golden age of Hollywood, but I also sense some inspiration by the French new-wave (inspired by the former). It also simply looks beautiful. I eagerly await new episodes.

I haven’t been so mad at the movie or tv series for a long time. The series would be absolutely fine without the „twist”. It adds nothing. It only cheapens the plot and adds a piece of banale. Ugh, why couldn’t it have been just a noire detective plot.

Clichéd nonsense.
Having managed to force my way past the [spoiler]chopstick fly-catching[/spoiler] nonsense, I managed another twenty minutes of watching this superhuman ninja samaritan pussy-magnet detective polymath schtick before I had to turn it off.

Ohh lovely. Film noir, Colin F and an original idea. So far, so very good.

ummm!! skrulls?🙄🙄 uh! nevermind...

Well hell, I didn't see that coming.

A cool detective noir drama with a twist!

I appreciate how this leans into its influences and isn't shy about wanting to create a whole old-school vibe hand-in-hand with modernity. Is it "new?" It's a detective show, of course not. It's good. It's making an appreciable effort. It's well-written. There's a dizzying array of quick-cuts and free-hand camera-ing. Does it make things more interesting? It's a detective show, of course not, but it is self-aware enough to know how presumably exhausted the collective conscious should be of detective shows. I don't know if I"ve seen Colin Farrell in something I wasn't happy with his performance. It almost runs the risk of coming up cheesier than it means to be, but I think that's what separates classes of actors. It's the kind of show where I understand why people who review shows are digging it more than the audience, and depending on why/how you approach TV, both are right.

Catching, it has one of the best twists so far in 2024.

What a ride Sugar has been, from the cinematography to the voice-over, from the old movie scenes to the insane plot twist.
Add the fantastic cast and music and you get a neo-noir series at its best!
The finale set the stage perfectly for another season, here's hoping...

Loved it, slow at first 2 episodes, then it hooked me on ep 3 and after 6 I was amazed, interesting detective with a nice twist that could expand even more to sifi if they want it 😁

My wife and I enjoyed this quite a bit [spoiler] But what's with the alien arc?! [/spoiler]

Lost interest after half. Sadly

Very boring film noir style series. Sometimes it felt like a kids production. I can't believe Farell agreed ymti ths series! I feel like I totally wasted my time.

Unlike the other review I actually watched it and understood it, and enjoyed it. Very different and something new, in a good way. Look forward to more.

I am not a Colin fan. I don't like most of his films. Yet I found this show great.

I discovered it by chance. I was waiting for the Parish tv show with Esposito to drop, saw the first episode and hated it, so without a show to watch I looked at what other new shows were available. Enter Sugar, and what a treat I was in for.

Loved the premise, it was really well written and Colin's usual stressed demeanor fits like a glove to this character. Loving this so far 3 episodes in, can't wait for the rest. ATV does have great shows.
