Anyone watched?

We've seen the first two and will struggle on with it for a bit. It's trying very hard to be 'The Killing', as Mrs 3BM remarked last night "why not just give him a jazzy jumper and be done with it".

My lady wife watched it and liked it just enough to see more. I went down the boozer.

we have watched it and it seems ok .

[QUOTE 2358686, member: 259"]I watched about twenty minutes of the first one and then decided to go and sort out my seed packets alphabetically and thematically. My wife always puts the tomatoes in the vegetable section, and you can imagine what chaos that causes. [/quote]
mort can you come and do my garage tidying please

 

[Glow worm]

It's definately better than that 'McWallander' Shetland thing over on the other channel!

It'll be all of them then.

I don't think I'll watch it now I know how it ends.

Or you'll lose the will to live and start self harming

... was there ever a plot ?

Each episode is at least 10 minutes too long and is padded with arty long shots of beaches and cliffs. At least Shetland had decent scenery.

and am I the only one who keeps thinking "Any minute now the Doctor and Rory will reveal their true identities, the reporter will be exposed as an undercover cop, Rev from BBC2 will turn up, with 'all right Vicarage?' in tow, to join his missus, and the plumber will don wig and gown as Garrow and defend himself.

Why is the gene pool upon which TV drama draws so ruddy narrow and why do they all appear to play slightly tweaked versions of their real selves in everything they do? Don't they teach acting any more?

 

[flissh]

I like it. But then I'm easily pleased!

 

[Saluki]

I quite like it too. I kept expecting Will Mellor do do something daft though. I will keep on with it I reckon unless it starts to drag on and on.

We have a theory that there are only about 100 actors and actresses in the world because we keep seeing the same actor again and again in different stuff. One actor (American) we saw playing a retarded chap in that The Mentalist programme, the character had read Moby Dick and turned out to be the murderer. We saw him in NCIS, he was the murderer, One of the CSI franchise's had him in, as the murderer so when he turned up in Grimm we immediately knew that he was going to be the bad guy and we were totally right, he was the murderer! I can't wait to see him in Midsomer
