If you do watch it, watch closely. I'm a little confused about who is who (those Germans all look alike! ) but I'm completely gripped by the plot!


I also recently started it based on a PP’s suggestion. I don’t know that I get a Broadchurch vibe (although I understand the connections you and PP make) but I am very hooked and think it is a really well done show. The plot is very intricate.

You can watch season 3 of Unforgotten by subscribing to the free trial of the Masterpiece channel on Amazon Prime (free trial available from time to time).
Silent Witness is also a good show (the more recent seasons).
I also loved Rectify, but I don’t think it’s for everyone.

Collateral was absurd, sorry. It started off in an intriguing way and then descended into predictable luvvie cliches. I had such hopes.

I also recommend Trapped, an Icelandic series on Amazon Prime. So good!

Amazon Prime-- Bosch. It's just so good.

PBS- Unforgotten


unforgotten is awesome. I think you can get seasons 1 and 2 on either netflix or prime now. Season 2 was even better than season 1. the third season may still only be on PBS.

+1. I feel like I finally found “my people” on this thread! What next?


Did you watch Jack Ryan? It was similar to Night Manager. Did you watch The Fall? Safe with Dexter Morgan I mean Michael Hall, is pretty good.
