So much unfulfilled potential

Jack o’ Frost is a slow burn with seriously gorgeous actors. I could watch them doing mundane things all day long. Eating together, going to coffee shops, taking walks. All with a frisson of anticipation and tension.

I am a fan of slow burns but this just wasn’t well-paced and well-developed. I really wanted to enjoy this more.

With only 6 episodes, the series is relatively short and doesn’t delve as deeply into these themes as it should have. Which is a real shame. They had a chance to go deep into some difficult topics, but barely touched on any of these.

I would have loved to see more character development, especially in relation to how they learnt from their past mistakes in order to salvage their struggling relationship.

Overall, this may have been better with 10-12 episodes instead.
