I just watched the first 3 episodes of Season 1, and I'm hooked. It's the kind of show or movie I really like. For example The Girl on the Train or Gone Girl, I can watch them over and over. David Fincher always does well, but maybe not The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, that film the Swedish original didn't need to be remade.

I love the coloring, it's so much like Fincher's Zodiac. It is a little slow moving, but I can see since they don't have the time restraints of a 2 hour film, he can let the story develop. Anybody looking for something similar but more action, the film Manhunter I recommended earlier with William Petersen is great! I rewatch it everytime HDNET or some other channel airs it.

The slow movement of the narrative is CRUCIAL. You need to get a sense of the inertia of the knowledge of the time. The mindset, the communication channels, the data analysis infrastructure. Like trying to play chess by postal service where neither of you know the other's address.

Ed Kemper is one of the best parts of the show and I didn't even know who he was before this.

Just listened to a new episode of Atlanta Monster with an interview with John Douglas. Pretty good stuff.

We just finished Season 1, and I gave it a 10 on IMDB. Basically it's what my wife and I watch all the time. Dateline, 20/20, 48 Hours, these are our favorite shows. I'm also a big fan of Paula Zahn on ID Channel. We watch ID channel a couple of hours a day, usually tape the shows so I can watch later without the commercials.

I was reading about the actors, I couldn't believe that Jonathan Groff who plays Holt Ford is an openly gay actor. Wendy is played by an Australian actress who is not gay, but divorced and Holt McCallany, who plays Bill Tench has a very pretty longtime girlfriend and he'll be 56 next month. Here's some real life photos.

Unrelated, but some of Goff’s background is in theatre and he has a gorgeous voice. During his scene at the elementary school in S1 he kept the kids entertained by singing his songs from Frozen. He has a great IRL friendship with Holt, too.

It was a struggle making it through the first episode. Maybe it was my mood but I hope it gets better.

I recommend watching the first 3-4 before making a judgment one way or the other. It's definitely a slow burn, but once you're in it's one of the most bingeable shows on Netflix.

I gotta rewatch the season probably. It's hard enough remembering everything that happens when shows take a year to air the new season, but 2 years? It's so dumb.

Literally the only thing I remember is a bunch of flashbacks to a creepy dude that led to nothing and the main character having a panic attack after the serial killer hugged him. I don't even remember any women characters much less hot lesbos.
[Reply]

Well, I mean, hot for being like 40 years old.

THANK YOU! It was bothering the hell out of me not being able to figure out where I had seen him before.
