I watched the first ep last week. I was a little disappointed to be honest. It was less absorbing than I had hoped. I am not sure what I felt was missing but something was.

I also thought that it was needlessly gross. It reminded me of the film "Natural Born Killers". In both cases I think the writers/producers got carried away with the freedom to show really graphic scenes.

i understand what you mean artichokes....but do persevere with it if you can...it goes much deeper into why he is the way he is....i have watched the whole first season and i must say it gets easier to watch each week

I will persevere for a few more episodes. I do want to like it. Not least because there is so little good stuff to watch at the moment.

FAWKEOFF · 03/03/2008 19:57

Only saw the first episode and absolutely hated it - murder-tainment. (Wanted to like it because I think the actor was brilliant in Six Feet Under.) I really agreed with this Lucy Mangan article about it.

FAWKEOFF · 03/03/2008 20:04

We watched it and are waiting for season 2 - we do have time for downloading or know where to!

It took me about 3 epesodes to get into it and DH loved it from the start.

All I can say is strangely watchable

FAWKEOFF · 03/03/2008 20:08

i have downloaded some of the first season for dp...he surprisingly enjoyed watching it as well

Dh has watched all of seson one fx last year. season 2 is on fx in may

serenity · 03/03/2008 20:19

I do download, but only stuff that I wouldn't be able to see otherwise (except in the case of Supernatural where my impatience knows no bounds) or old stuff that isn't being shown atm.

Having said that I am getting twitchy fingers about S2 and about the new season of House, and if we get to a time where there's naff all on TV I might get tempted.......

I watched it but was really really tired that night and didnt quite get it. Is he a forensic scientist who is also a serial killer and uses his know-how to avoid detection?

FAWKEOFF · 03/03/2008 21:58

well kind of....he is fostered, and his foster father was a policeeman, an event happened in his childhood that has made him the way he is, and his foster father has taught him how to avoid being caught
