How to Get Away With Murder begins with an actual murder--a group of hypercompetitive law students are fighting over what to do with the body--before it flashes back to their first day in Keating's class, quickly establishing each character before discrediting our first impressions.... Thanks to Davis' powerfully layered performance, it's impossible to read Keating.

The heightened tone, pungent dialogue, extreme characters, twisty plotting and dizzying pace reflect the Shonda philosophy of entertain-at-all-costs, providing a sizzling showcase for Viola Davis as Annalise Keating

I just started watching this tv show on Netflix and I have not stopped watching! I am obsessed. I have been watching this show for a week, and I am already 14 episodes into season 5. The actors in this show are so good, and play with your emotions in such a good way, they keep you wanting more every single time. The end of the episodes leave you on such a cliff hanger and just get you hooked! I highly recommend this show! Honestly, the best part of this show is trying to figure out the crimes, I just love how much it keeps you on the edge of your seat.

This was by far one of the best things I have seen in a long time, the acting was excellent and the storyline kept you glued to your seat. They could easily bring it back, and I believe they should, we need more shows like this. Just let the last episode be Analise' nightmare. I would very much like that. I know many others who feel the same way.

While it’s so fast paced, you barely realize that it isn’t always credible, you do get that it’s always fun.

Davis is such a phenomenal actress that it’s tempting and easy to say that she’s better than the material she’s given here, but hopefully she can elevate the show around to her level. She does so often enough in the premiere that I’m willing to see if she can keep it up.

The show would benefit from easing up on the frenetic pace, taking a breath every now and then, and making its younger cast members seem like they’re actually in law school, not an Abercrombie & Fitch catalog.

It doesn’t offer enough fun to balance out the multiple improbabilities in its storyline, the constant time-shifts, the hard-to-follow scenes in the dark or what we’re expected to accept about the legal and academic worlds.

This show is fantastic, every season there's a lot of mystery and multiple things that keeps you addicted to the TV show.

This show is very bad. The acting is poor and the charachters are not likable at all. The story is confusing but at the same time, very predictable. Why would the characters try to hide the murder? it was an accident and self defense, not deliberate murder. One of the worst shows I´ve seen

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I do not enjoy entertainment where not a single character has a conscience and everyone is a psychopath. Shonda Rhimes has been terrible for television.

Storia completamente senza un senso logico.. 5 studenti che fanno più omicidi che esami al primo anno di college.. Imbarazzante, purtroppo più la serie va avanti e più si fa imbarazzante la sequenza di improbabili eventi che capitano... Mah
