Anybody going to watch this one?

After "The Walking Dead" I thought I would give this one a shot. AMC is usually pretty solid

watched it.... We were under the impression it was just a movie so when we found out ti was a serious it was kind of a downer. Wasnt too bad...probably stich with it.

Have watched a few shows such as this that took a full season. Damages on FX the most recent. Years ago I think NBC did Murder One that I loved.

The issue with these shows is that you gotta watch from the beginning. The do a decent of job showing what previously happened (assumed this show will do that as well in the subsequent weeks) but it just isnt the same. Hope to watch the full season.

Anyone know how many weeks it is?

It's not that hard to follow along in this day and age with the Internet and DVR.

Dont have DVR, and do not watch shows on the net or keep up with shows that way.

Loved it.
It had me glued in several areas.
Great character development as you easily see the flaws in each.

The sequence with the them finding the body, with the dad being held back and the mom listening on the phone was gripping.

Is anybody still watching this show?

Easily one of my favorite shows on TV. I'm interested to see what happens after what went down at the end of last weeks episode.

It's a pretty good show. It moves painfully slowly at times though.

Looks like the teacher is innocent. I liked that they didn't go with the obvious choice.
I now think it was the guy who worked with the Larsen's. But, I still think the mayoral candidate office's is involved somehow.

I disagree thinking its been slow. It has been great in my view. Easily one of the best shows on tv now.

I thought the same thing until last nights episode

I dont think we have seen the killer just yet, think its another character that they havent introduced yet
