Overview
- All eight episodes of 56 Days are now streaming on Prime Video following the Feb. 18 global release.
- Dove Cameron and Avan Jogia lead the romance-thriller, with Karla Souza and Dorian Missick drawing praise as the investigating detectives.
- The series intercuts a whirlwind past romance with a present-day homicide probe that begins with a chemically decomposed body found in a bathtub.
- Adapted from Catherine Ryan Howard’s 2021 novel, the show drops the book’s lockdown-era Dublin setting for contemporary Boston and carries executive-producer backing from James Wan’s Atomic Monster.
- Critical reception is mixed, citing strong performances and atmosphere but uneven plotting, and Prime Video has not announced a second season.
