The Divide or Murder in the First?

Definitely The Divide. Murder in the First is pure painfully predictable soap opera. I dropped it quickly.

And AAMOF I hated The Killing and consider it appallingly overrated. In my opinion, this is far better.

I'm gonna set fire to his car to punish him for my mistake.

I like The Divide better than MITF.

Didn't watch the The Killing or Broadchurch.

The Divide by a huge margin. Murder in the First became ridiculous very quickly. The Divide strikes a very nice balance between being entertaining and realistic. And well acted all around.

Definitely the Divide over Murder In the First.


I watched the Killing's first season but stopped after that it's not that I didn't like it. I thought it was billed as solving the murder over the course of a season and when that wasn't the case I stopped watching.

A little messed up but we're all alright.

Of the two, the Divide is a better made drama. Murder in the First is a shiny TV series made with beautiful people.

That said, post season 1, The Killing was a huge disappointment. Broadchurch for the most part was a snooze fest. The US version, Gracepoint looks even worse.

The Divide, for sure. First rate acting, writing and direction.

The Divide is better. I was turned off by MitF when by Episode 3 Taye Diggs, who weighs about 150 lbs, was acting like Mr Macho Man beating up some random punk in a bar.

Anyway, The Divide covers a LOT - race relations, police corruption, class status, family dysfunction - AND basically most of the 7 deadly sins! It's rare to see a crime drama this complex. Too bad it's buried on the WE network. This is the show that deserved TNT and the media attention that came with it.
