10/23: Okay is this losing its way?

I don't understand where this show is going. Tonight they brought in Liam supposedly Kate's son and some other man who's daughter is missing.

They are definitely trying to do too much. They are packing every secret and lie imaginable into one story. It's almost like "how many red herrings can we put into one plot?"

^That. The first season already went into that direction. Instead of a nifty case which follows a trail of breadcrumbs, they went in different direction with the ending basically being independent from most learned on the way. Seems the same this season: some other mystery which turns out to be unconnected.

Agreed. It's all over the place.

Hehe,you haven't seen anything yet!
This season is really cringeworthy (i really liked the first), the lame twists and exposed secrets just will keep flowing through one episode to another to the point that you won't even remember the ones from 2-3 episodes earlier. Just like a soap opera. Here in Hungary they aired the first 9 episodes already and they had them all (the cliches),well maybe except the famous "amnesia" but you can't be never sure if they won't somehow add that also to the mix in Sunday's finale.

Yeah it's definitely heading off the rails fast. The first two episodes were pretty good, but the last couple have just been a big mess. Now we have call girls and a stolen farm for Liam who's really not Liam and this guy who was beating up Neil is also somehow a detective too....okkkkkkkkkkkk.....

Yea, it's looking bad. Might be bailing out. First Season was so much better, they should have just carried on with that storyline as it was actually interesting.

The show is 'Secrets and Lies' not 'who dunnit?' Determining who did it exposes everyone's "secrets and lies" -- like how could this close family who not only play together but they all work together conceal so much from one another.

"He lied about the lies that he lied about"!
