I guess you could google the case (I don't know the case at all) but I would imagine many like me are just waiting to see what happens in the tv series and don't want it spoiled for them.

I’ve watched all 3 episodes and I’m now bummed I have to wait. What day do the new episodes come out?
I’m
Enjoying it. A few parts are too cliche, like the BIC comment but overall I think it’s good.

So hard to watch. I get Rema was looking for peer acceptance but her treatment of her parents was abominable. Her poor father, weeping in the police car!

Here is an article about fact v fiction. Reena was a troubled girl. Her poor parents indeed.

I like that the series is not concealing the identity of the murderer, just working to unravel the sequence of events. I do wish it had excluded the author and cop characters. Unnecessary, add nothing to the story.
The actress playing Reena does a great job of conveying her vulnerability despite her awful actions.

Its boring and to turn to major flashback episodes instead of pushing the action forward, is just bad writing. Its going to tank in terms of viewing figures.

Parts of it are very good, but it's so uneven. Too bad, because it could have been great.

Great show, looking forward to the next episode!

Reena was conscious after the beating and walked/stumbled away.

I keep wondering if it was the dad. That business about his past criminal record being expunged was interesting.

I loved Archie Panjabi in The Good Wife. It's good to see her in something else; she looks great!

They clearly state the identity of the murderer in the most recent ep.

I loved her in that too, and The Fall and everything else she has been in. She is very talented and incredibly beautiful. But she doesn't look great in this and I think that is intentional. She is playing a fuddy duddy not a high powered investigator.

Yes, of course. If you want to feel really heartbroken, look up how things turned out for the poor mom.

Yes. I watched three episodes and got bored. I got tired of seeing basically the same scenes over and over - Rena being awful to her parents, Jo being awful to everyone, Riley character being conflicted…. Ugh.

Kelly says "I did it" so I think we can assume she did it.

I'll have to check out the Fall.

That's interesting; I think she looks great in this.

No thanks. I can barely stay awake through an episode of this fictional version.
