From Lucy Mangan of the Guardian:
- Shattered – a stonking showcase for its mesmerising hero
“he is the perfect choice to play the lead in the new police drama Shattered (Mondays, Hallmark). Ben Sullivan is a homicide detective with multiple personality disorder. It’s been in apparent abeyance, but re-emerges – as luck would have it – in the opening episode when he and his new (young, blonde, idealistic yadda yadda) partner Amy come under fire from a serial-killing baddie. His alter ego tells Amy to shoot the man because he has a gun. Turns out he does not. They fake the necessary and get away with it, though young, blonde, idealistic, yadda yadda Amy is Not Happy.” Read more.
