The Mystery, Crime, and Thriller Group discussion

Anyone watching The Fall? Golly, the sexual violence at the end of the latest episode (3rd June) was almost too much to bear. More creepy because the bad guy appears so normal, has a wife, kids. More scary that way than an out and out psychopath - brings it very close to home.

Haven't seen it. What channel is it on, AJ?

I'm in the UK, BBC 2, Monday nights at 9pm - so sorry if you can't get it.

I get the BBC. I'll check the listings and find it. Thanks, AJ.

I watched "The Fall" on Netflix. I don't usually like to see (or read) thrillers that include the killer's point of view but I thought this mini-series was well-written and well acted. Goes to show how the regular guy next door can be a vicious psychopath. Gillian Anderson (from the X-files) does a great job as a British detective.

Hi Barbara. Yes - I agree. Very well done series and another series has already been commissioned. GA is suitably dry and deadpan, direction and storyline very good.

Anyone also watching Accused, UK version?

Hi Josiah - I've got it recorded and lined up, but not seen it yet. Waiting for the right time. Get the feeling it will be heavy stuff. Have you seen it? Recommend?

What an ending. Sooooo leads to a second series!!!

Yes, Katherine - it has got a second series commissioned, so we can look forward to that!

Can't find The Fall. Sounds good, though.

We have it on Bravo on Sundays in Canada. I enjoyed the first episode and look forward to the next one. It's nice to see Gillian Anderson in something.

Watched the first episode today on Netflix. Very creepy but very, very good.

Finished The Fall yesterday. Excellent series but it did leave a lot of threads hanging. That said, loved the complex characters - good and bad.

Obviously as second series was planned from the beginning.

Enjoyed the series - not the title as that was what I was going to call my own book. Anyway everything was fine until the last episode no spoilers but very disappointed in the ending

Do they ever plan on showing the The Fall on BBC America like they did Broadchurch or is Netflix the only way to see it?
