Subtlety isn’t really a strong suit of Unchosen, but what we hope is that the show’s rough edges in that category will be smoothed down as the psychological thriller at the core of the series develops.

What follows is an unpredictable, if ultimately melodramatic psychological drama motored by dark manipulations.

Unchosen heads into weak thriller territory, complete with a car chase and a silly kidnap.

It’s entertaining enough, undemanding fare, but you might wish you had chosen other ways to spend your four hours.
