"State of Play" is a well-made and entertaining series. [Full Review in Spanish]
April 12, 2019
The drama plays as fast and fascinating as a John le Carre novel -- except the sex is better.
April 10, 2019
You may as well try and make heroes of a bunch of City lawyers than make a journalist the moral centre of a drama... It shouldn't be good, really. Except, it is. In fact, it's bloody magic.
April 10, 2019
State of Play is a very well constructed and well paced miniseries. It has a strong dramatic flow, and the acting is quite good.
April 10, 2019
The characters all have a pungent psychological edge. Abbott has a knack of finding what is unexpectedly interesting in real people's lives and putting it into his scripts.
April 10, 2019
This is television at its best, taking full advantage of its length without introducing a speck of fat... and offering a vision of the truth as an endless unfolding of character and power.
April 10, 2019
A prescient, complicated, and ultimately honest piece of dramatic storytelling.

The real star of the show in the newsroom is Nighy, as newsroom editor Cameron Foster. This role feels tailor made for Nighy's talents, requiring smarts, sarcasm, and just a little bit of oil.
April 10, 2019
It is at once harrowing and funny and involves friendship and betrayal, love and adultery, government conspiracies and personal jealousy and the overlapping business of the police and the press.

It's the finest thing Abbott has ever done; his script is taut, spare and never patronises a grown-up audience.
April 10, 2019
There's Paul Abbott's slick script, adroitly linking the mysterious, seemingly random murders of a purse snatcher and a political researcher... And there's David Yates' adrenalized direction.
April 10, 2019
State of Play spirals so rapidly and with such fascinating writing and acting that episodes conclude in a frustrating rush, the sure sign you're onto something uncommonly good.
