I just randomly stumbled upon the HIStory series and after reading all the plot summaries, it was this one that caught my attention. I have no regrets in my choice. The story isn't anything new or especially creative. But the execution is absolutely amazing. The two leads are especially charming and the little girl is lovable, I couldn't help but smile whenever I see them interacting.
The acting is pretty consistent, across episodes and across all actors/actresses. There are two scenes, however, where I found Hunt's acting a little awkward. In the first one, he was supposed to be angry but I just couldn't feel the rage and passion from him. In the second, he was supposed to be very sad but the emotion just wasn't reaching me and it felt forced. If I remember correctly, both scenes were in Episode 1 (or maybe one was in Episode 2). It almost put me off, but I'm glad I continued because it never happened again. In the rest of the series, the acting was so well-done I almost forgot about it until I rewatched from the start after finishing. The series as a whole also just got better and better with each succeeding episode.
