It’s the kind of show where Bonnie Bedelia is probably the most recognizable face, and that leaves one wondering how effective nepotism really is if this is the best that Ray Nicholson (son of Jack) can do (to his credit, Ray Nicholson - who plays a misunderstood bad-boy villain - is easily the most compelling character on the show).īesides, a more recognizable cast and higher production values might have created expectations that Panic wasn’t designed to fulfill, which might have done a disservice to a series that skates by on its high-concept premise, episode-ending cliffhangers, and an almost needless number of twists and turns. That’s not a reflection of how good Panic is, but it is a reflection of how addictively entertaining it is, even if it does toe the line between good-bad and bad-bad. I watched eight in one night, and then woke up and immediately watched the other two. There are 10 episodes in Amazon’s new series Panic, based on the YA novel by Lauren Oliver, who also adapts to the screen and writes every episode.
