[adycav]

You've probably see the trailers for this six-part new series, which starts on Five this Sunday, 10pm.

It seems to be well regarded:

Apologies if this is a repost, happy for the thread to be closed if there's another one that I've missed.

Damn, got all excited there thinking it was Season 2!

This was shown on the FX channel a little while ago and was a SUPERB series, just can't wait for it to start again.....might have to watch Season 1 again if it's on anyway

[adycav]

Worth a watch then?

[ben_h100]

Definitely worth a watch. The first episode is an extended episode and feels more like a top class movie than a tv series.

Movie standard production on this, good story, keeps you hooked.

The comic books are very, very dark

[Halb]

Indeed they are, some of the stuff that happens, I had to go back a few pages and just reread them!
No character is safe!

Anyone got any news on the second series?

[adycav]

Well I enjoyed the first episode, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the lead performances and the haunting, brooding nature of the thing.

Looking forward to future episodes now.
