    Obsession for me turn out to be a very entertaining mini series, I'm really not into drama stories, the internet as in other type of reviews has a very harsh opinion on this series basically because it drift from other stories like Damage and Fatal Attraction, the irony the TV Series Fatal Attraction just came out a few days ago, three first episodes drop and guess what, the reviews are not so good neither but for anyone who think you can make an opinion out of other peoples review online I have to say it wont work, anything with an online score of five is worth giving a shot because for you it could turn into a seven plus, there is people who score Obsession with a 1 that's just ridiculous, this story has very good amount of suspense moments, some other are very predictable but for example on this episode when Peggy start talking about Anna mom I really make me want to see her on the series and I was prepare for things to go wrong, nothing spectacular happen but how about Jay remind her of his son and caught William craving Anna that scene was great, plus the production of the series is good quality, short story take online reviews just as a low score opinion and then watch the series and make an opinion out of your experience, I'm one chapter away from finish Obsession and so far I cant complain and I think I'm glad is only four chapters, its like watching a very long movie.

    We are getting closer to the end of this short interesting story, it gets more intense as now someone knows about Anna and William, he is getting text messages from an anonymous source who says she/he knows everything he is doing yet both Anna and William still have the nerves of steel to sit down at the same table with William's family for an engagement dinner, the first suspect who is sending the text messages has to be Peggy unless William has open his mouth at work or somewhere else.

    Source

    I think I would not be capable to even sit down at that table and yet they still sneak to the bathroom to fool around, Anna is crystal clear on her rules like she have done worst than this in the past but William has no clue of what is an affair and how to have one successfully, Anna even know how to play with encrypted messages telling William if she touch her hair at the table means she is thinking of how the going to fuck next time they see in private but Williams intermediately ask when, so needy.

    William tells Anna about the messages and she acts like she have been there before, she also think its Peggy who is tormenting William and decides to confront her.

    Source

    Anna goes to Peggy after dinner, Jay is with her on the car and waited downstairs since Anna told him she didn't want to meet Peggy tonight, for sure Peggy and Anna were or are lovers, Anna has a harem of people on her sex life, turns out Peggy confess its not her and some one else knows about them, got to say that makes things great, more suspense, more intense and few candidates come to mind like Williams wife for example, she even mention to him once that she wouldn't see him having an affair so why not her.

    Peggy latter calls Anna and said "you have done so fucked up things in the past" what does that mean? how fucked up? even paint a scene that Anna will need Peggy when her mom meet Jay at the engagement party. That really make me want to meet Anna's mom.

    Source

    The moment comes and Anna's mother said Jay looks like Aston, Anna's brother, she ones told William about how Aston was in love with her and latter on kills himself after she puts him down, Anna's mother sounded dilutional and very unstable, I thought she would be the over protective powerful woman or someone who rejects her daughter for all the crazy and bad things she have done but it was totally different.

    Source

    During the party Anna talk to a few people trying to find out who is sending William all those text but no luck, then the speech time comes up, one of the text William got that night said that he got until the speech was over or she will tell the truth that added way more suspense to the situation and then the MOTHER of suspense comes to stage, Ingrid during her speech mention she has been spying on William, right there I'm sure many thought she was the one sending the texts but NO again fool everyone, she ended talking about some pictures of William and her and how much they still love each other bla bla bla love speech ...Jay and Anna be happy, sometimes there are moments with a lot of expectations that last for very short time and then fall real quick during the series, I think some people may not like that, I still do. During the speech William got extremely tense to the point he broke his champagne gas and cut his hand, Anna's mom catch him looking at Anna and then told her she hopes William is nothing to her, so her mom knows there might be something between them.

    Source

    Anna and Sally, Jay's sister, go out shopping for Sally's dress and she confess she was the one sending the messages because she found the page William stole from Anna's diary, some how Anna pulls this ninja move and confess its her hand writing, that she feels ashamed because she forgot her diary at Hartley and William found it and hold it for her, she was afraid he would read it but not only that, now Sally read a page out of her personal thoughts, off course Sally felt sorry for her, still think his dad did something wrong but indirectly shuts down the affair possibility. Anna is a menace.

    Source

    Source

    William and Anna keeps seen each other, she again remind him of the rules now that she got back the page he stole from her diary but that wouldn't end their affair. Jay is having his bachelor party with some friends and William shows up, after a few drinks he decides to go not before having a talk to Jay about marriage, women, how difficult it is but then ends with "learn to love the questions" after Jay said he doesn't know what he mean with all this random conversation about Anna been a challenge for Jay. William said it on purpose to tip him off, he doesn't want to share Anna with Jay and she told him once, it doesn't end with just him, William.

    Jay decides to follow William because only Anna have said that phrase to him before, the obvious is that he will caught William with Anna and I'm sure what ever happens next wont be a surprise but might be explosive.

    I dont know others but I have really enjoy Obsession so far, yes has a lot of cliche and things that are predictable but there is more to it, parts of the story that adds more spice to the moment, production is great, actors are fine, they develop the character they were given, this is no video game AAA+ story with a huge fan base, this is a drama story that could not be so much different than any other cheating story we have seen before, there are elements good to the story but nothing that is ground braking. Its good to watch to fill in when there is nothing else interesting to watch.

  2. Obsession (2023) - Episode 2 - Personal Thoughts@skiptvads1149d

    Source

    Its a shame that this Mini Series has so low rate 5.7/10 on IMDB and only be four episodes but I guess the amount of episodes is to keep things as intense as possible. On episode two the craziness really boils up from both part from William and Anna, this might not be 50 shades of gray but for sure is half of it, there is the dominant and the dominated but Ana likes to play both roles while for William he is the dominated for the most part even when Anna wants to be told what to do he cant, at first I thought Anna would be the one obsess with William but its totally the opposite, Anna likes to do what ever she wants without barriers or boundaries and William he is just a bastard, who needs enemies when your father is fucking your girlfriend and having a weird as fuck relationship with her and same for Anna, she is no wife material I can tell you that. This has nothing to do with liberalism or what people can do or don't with their love lives, this is totally wrong in every possible way, there is nothing positive from what Anna and William are doing with their lives, the only positive thing would be learn what not to do when all this blow up, nothing good can come out of it and William is now taking this to a higher level stocking Anna and Jay, going after them, wanting to be more special than Jay for Anna, does William even likes or care for Jay? this is so fucking wrong. The only satisfaction I take from this series is waiting for the moment William gets caught, I really don't care about what happens with Anna, she is just a crazy bitch, for sure a bad bitch because she is having for sure more than two relations, she has William, Jay and Peggy who I guess is also in love with her and knows Anna is not hers but Jay's, contrary to William who want to be the number one in her life.

    Here are the rules, You wait for me to say when You do not turn up uninvited Nothing happens beyond these walls without my permission Is my choice to surrender to you Do you understand? I give you your power And you accept that Then in this room we can be who ever we want to be

    This two love to fuck in very uncomfortable surfaces, flat on the floor, against walls, at William age that cant be pleasant, but he is so crazy for Anna probably he doesn't care, once or twice is enough but on this episode they do it several times besides first episode, its like there is no bed on the apartment, couch or even chairs, William take Anna's proposition and accept the rules, but for someone obsess as he is this rules are meant to be broken.

    Source

    Every time William look at his wife Ingrid there is that awkwardness, that moment of tension and she is starting to think William has an affair although he said it joking but when he looks or talk to Jay there is nothing, its like nothing concerning to Jay is happening, they both at home talking about Anna and William can care less about Jay.

    Source

    Im sure this was William first test to the rules Anna impose him, when it comes to Anna there is no schedule, family or work, nothing else really matter. On this scene Anna text him "6 P.M My flat" which eventually is not actually hers, its Peggy place that he use as a motel room to fuck who ever she wants.

    Source

    Anna for sure already calculate the outcomes of this moment, minutes before William shows up she text him "DON'T COME" knowing Peggy is there and probably he will anyways, obviously William failed this test, he was ready to fuck and all of the sudden Anna put a stop to horniness freaking him out and wanting explanations which Anna didn't have to give him based on the rules he agree at first.

    Source

    The man seem to have everything, successful at his profession, great wife, kids are old enough with one about to probably marry, but he is probably bored of his life, when a man or a woman has all this and ends up having an affair they probably bored of the same, I don't want to talk about what's right or wrong but in Williams case the leas he can do is not have an affair with his son's girlfriend and if you are going to have an affair treat it as such, nothing can replace your family, you cant become attach to that second woman in your life she is there to fuck, laugh and have a good time and both must be on the same plan. William on the other hand looks like he wants Anna only for him, he becomes obsess to be more special than Jay to her, wants to know things he doesn't, wants to read her diary which at first she didn't let him but then agree during sex, he even takes a page out of her diary just to keep something of hers with him, the craziness doesn't stop here.

    Source

    Ingrid became worry that Jay will ask Anna to marry him, Jay is taking Anna to Paris for a romantic weekend, when Ingrid and William talk about this matter for some twisted reason he decides to go after them, stocking Anna outside of their hotel from a restaurant, calling the hotel reception to find out if they are there, insist to call her cellphone, even call their room, been Anna the silver fox she is, she picks up the phone talk to William and agree to meet outside without having Jay to suspect anything.

    Source

    According to Wikipedia of soft-porn this series is right there, you will see nudity, ass, tits and them having sex but no penetration so this is a series only for adults.

    After a quick fuck on a alley, Anna gets pissed because William clearly broke the rules and have no control over himself, putting her relationship with Jay at risk but I think that's not really what concern her, she doesn't care about Jay she only cares about getting caught, if she cared about Jay she wouldn't be doing any of this, Anna goes back to the hotel and pretend to have a headage so she end up staying with Jay at the hotel to leave the next morning. Weird they only went to Paris for one day?

    Source

    Right after they left, FREAKY WILL decides to rent the same room they were staying at, praying they havent change the sheets or pillows, looking for her smell to then jerk off on the same bed his son and Anna slept.

    Source

    After all this event Anna had to vent out, goes to a bar with Peggy and they talk about it, Peggy is worried about Anna getting caught and ruining he relation with Jay to the point Anna only worry about that, getting caught and stays firm on the idea she wont.

    Source

    Source

    The next day Jay invited Anna for dinner at the same time an unknown / hidden phone number text William "I know what you are doing, Stop now pervert" while he is having dinner with Ingrid, he freaks out goes to the backyard to call Anna and tell her but she interrupts him before he can talk and to let HIM continue to fuck her she demands to from him to give her permission to say yes when Jay ask her to marry him.

    This two bastards are twisted as fuck, none of them cares for others besides themselves, Anna can easily change roles from be the dominant to dominated but William cant and he is trap on his obsession for Anna, I'm sure someone will die at the end, when they find out about Anna and William, he will end up loosing everything, the amount of bad outcomes from this situation is countless, there is only two episodes left and for a mini series I don't find it rush and also I'm not having the need to watch a hole season, really liking this drama.

  3. Obsession (2023) - Episode 1 - Personal Thoughts@skiptvads1158d

    Source

    Today I wanted to watch something different, something out of the mainstream AAA TV series, I'm constantly looking for rough gems, its rare to see mini series becoming popular and most go under the radar, not many are good enough to attract a lot of viewers, in Obsession there are a few familiar faces Charley Murphy from Halo and Indira Varma aka the infamous Ellaria Sand from the Sand Snakes on Game of Thrones, Richard Armitage mostly known as Thorin from The Hobbit and many other important roles so the cast is not a problem here, they all experts when it comes to bring a character alive.

    Richard Armitage plays William Farrow a very well recognize surgeon who recently pull one of the hardest procedure, to separate Siamese twins, I'm not sure how hard is that still today but from what I remember is very complicated, William fall in love with Charley Murphy playing Anna Barton his soon to be daughter in law, Anna tries to keep William and his son Jay close to her but eventually the truth will come to the light.

    This is a classic story and I don't expect nothing special, mostly is about the actors of this mini series to make things interesting, I don't think the script will be anything extraordinary and probably that's why it doesn't have much audience and the scores are very low.

    RTT: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/obsession_2023

    This mini series is predictable, I would prefer if it was backwards when it comes to Charley and Indira but age makes the difference, the environment looks very fancy and that's one of the appeals for me besides the cast.

    Source

    Source

    William Farrow a renounce surgeon who enjoy his job, he is proud of his achievements and it feels like he enjoy saving lives, on the picture above he smiles when one of the doctors tells him the twins are stable and everything went great, at least this scene indicates he is a good man but we all have weaknesses or moments were we are vulnerable, FYI I'm not making excuses for what's about to happen next but we need to recognize the situation for what it is, William looks like a good surgeon , father and husband but who knows what inside his head, what kind of desire got him to fall for Anna.

    Source

    Ingrid Farrow, William's lovely and gorgeous wife who is very interested and care for him, demonstrating affection every moment they are next to each other. On this series there are some sexual scenes, nothing explicit or that I would consider soft porn but this is not for kids. Through the entire episode Ingrid is all in for her husband and family so I'm intrigue why William decides to cheat on his wife, the only thing that comes to mind is because Anna is younger, they didn't know each other before his son told him about her and they met during a doctors gathering an event to congregate colleagues.

    Source

    This is Jay Farrow, William's son, Anna's boyfriend, they are living large in a big house out of the city, his father a simple man but one of the most successful surgeon in the country probably makes a lot of money. On the first episode there is not much to say about Jay other that he was not too sure at first about letting his family met Anna yet but his sister worn him down and kept asking who the special lady is until he gives in and tells them about Anna.

    Source

    The question that will keep coming back to your head while you watch the first episode is WHY, why did William do it. The relationship between father and son seems to be great, they talk, laugh, there is a scene latter where Jay calls his father to talk about Anna since he feels his mother doesn't like her for some reason, Jay trust his father.

    Source

    Its funny how William and Anna meet each other during an event full of doctors, she suddenly look at her without knowing who she is but to me it seems William was her target and Jay was just the way to reach him.

    Source

    One may think its William who gets obsess with Anna for numerous forbidden reasons but I think its backwards and she will do what ever it takes to get to William even using Jay to reach her goal, I say this just from watching the first episode.

    William sits at the bar and she quickly approach him, saying hello and who she is with already a goal in mind, she acts all sexy and seductive without William making any moves on her, the guy is weak and probably doesn't know how to stop or say no to her, for both men and women who are not flatter or on board by a stranger constantly this situations are not easy to handle and that is understandable.

    Source

    Source

    This is the part where William failed as a husband and father, basically everything went down south for him, he lies to his wife when she tells Anna was at the event too and he says didn't know or met her and then gets a call and safe the her contact as A, all this is so predictable and I think that's when viewers get bored expecting something more intriguing. Anna finally gets invited for dinner with Jay's family and here also William fails and kept saying lies to his wife Ingrid, basically to everyone on that table, his entire family was there, plus the fact that Anna was constantly harassing him around the house every second they were left alone and I think only his daughter caught it.

    Source

    When ever some one is cheating in a relationship doesn't matter who it is, their personal life starts to deteriorate. Anna finally invites William to his place and as expected they had sex but a short five minute thing, it was very weird from both sides but mostly from hers, she was manipulative and offer herself as a kinda of sacrifice to him, probably in her mind William is a God, who knows why she is so obsess with him.

    Source

    Here son and father having a beer discussing why Ingrid doesn't like Anna, William already had sex with her.

    The worst part of this story is that his family is going down with him son, wife even his daughter will be affected if by any chance she becomes close with Anna, that's very possible considering Anna will start stocking William and spend more time at his place probably with the excuse of been next to Jay but I'm sure having sex at his place will be one of her goals, obsess women like her the final goal is to become his wife, replace Ingrid.

    I wanted to watch this mini series to bring something different to my blog, this kind of stories never end well considering this one is more complicated as it involves the entire family not just William's wife, problem with William is that he probably haven't live enough, too quiet, too well behave, he haven't visit the dark side of life, I have been there a few times many years ago and now I can say its not worth it, I would prefer to be alone than having all this kind of problems, its just not fun and the consequences could be mayor. In the case of William he could loose his family, his job or even his life when Anna do not accept to stop seen each other because that's coming too for sure. This is my impression without seen any of the other episodes.
