9. Echoes

Echoes is a thrilling tale of twin sisters leading secret lives, with an emphasis on identity, deception, and family secrets. The series has a great premise but drags out what could have been a very suspenseful movie in the episodic form. As a film, the plot could have been maintained suspenseful, with a focus on the psychological tension between the sisters and leading to a climactic confrontation. The slow-burn series could be developed into a closely knit narrative whose stakes are so high that does not lose intrigue.
