Product Description

Description

Hard-hitting, original and controversial, BAD GIRLS depicts the personal trials and triumphs of prison inmates and officers alike. Set in and around HMP Larkhall, this is a drama where fear and brutality meet friendship and compassion, and where corrupt staff, treacherous inmates, drugs and violence all combine to test the mettle of those thrown together 24/7. In the intense and sexually charged atmosphere of life behind bars, it's a hidden world where anything can happen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Series, July 7 2005

This review is from: Bad Girls: The Complete First Season (DVD)

This is an outstanding series -- one of the best I've ever seen on tv. It's gritty, tragic, and sometimes funny. The characters are well-drawn and the acting is top-notch. This series makes obvious how palid most North American tv really is. I can hardly wait until they release the rest of the series in North America. Get this series...you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Girls - A Must See, July 6 2005

This review is from: Bad Girls: The Complete First Season (DVD)

A good friend of mine brought be back series 1 & 3 from Glasgow a couple years ago, and I immediately got hooked on the show. There are some fantastic storylines that are quite believeable in some instances. The power struggles between inmates and screws (prison officers) add the the wonderful dynamics of the series. The series is not without its humour and dry wit as well. Amusing one liners are priceless. Before I had finished watching the first series, I bought the second from Amazon.co.uk. I now have all (series 1-6) of the series that have been released. Mind you, the UK releases of the series DVDs have more features (video interviews, behind the scenes, etc) that the North American releases, so if you don't need the subtitles and you have a multi-regional player, check out the UK releases.

You must give this a go, and you'll be hooked for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Show ever, Mar 18 2006

By A Customer

This review is from: Bad Girls: The Complete First Season (DVD)

I got hooked a few years ago when Showcase Diva aired Season one and I think they aired up until season 5. I missed most of it and was disappointed when they took it off. I have been reading the episode guide on the show's official website to keep me in the loop but it's not the same as watching it. It is so riviting, dramatic, humourous and very well written and acted. The storylines are very compelling and it is just a show without borders. I can't wait until they release the rest of the seasons here in Canada.

I really enjoyed the first season of Bad Girls, I found it a very moving realistic drama and the actors were most convincing at times! Read more
