Didn't know BBC could be so interesting!


Great series. Especially love the period environment atmosphere. Read about the writer and it is amazing. Great actors. Subtle buildup. Even has action sequences! Keep it up BBC America.

IMHO, this series is very well made, almost at the same quality as "The Wire". I m afraid it may suffer the same fate.

What fate?

Then you haven't checked out Orphan Black!

This show is good. Try reading the book. The show is very serious while the book is filed with humor.

BBC are always making interesting dramas, it's one of the things that do best.

What?! BBC has the best programming in the world, in my opinion: Merlin, Misfits, The Musketeers, Downton Abbey, Luther, Skins, Dr. Who and now this...I LOVE THIS SHOW! Thank you BBC.

BBC never fails to surprise me. They make a hit every couple of years. Keep watching and "Just Don't Blink"
