If Mad Men were a hospital soap opera that takes place in London

Stylistically, it captures the 1960s almost as well as Mad Men did but, whereas Mad Men delivered complicated characters, Breathless delivers complicated secrets ... like a soap opera does.

Of course, the Mad Men world was lousy with secrets but the secrets didn't upstage its characters.

But for the natural charisma of its actors, Breathless might devolve into a pretty good daytime soap where you become invested in the characters because of their secrets ... not the other way around.

score 8/10
