America's Broadchurch

[chrissa1]

On ITV Encore now. It is hilarious. David Tennant with a Scottish American accent.

It's called Gracepoint.

I really enjoyed it (Mr Q downloaded it for me) the ending is a different twist from Broadchurch. And David Tennant - he can do no wrong!!!

I agree with Chrissa- I didn't think the series travelled the pond well at all, I gave up after the first episode.

I'm watching it now with my boiled eggs. Why do the Americans have to remake things in their own image? They failed dismally with Life on Mars and their version of Cracker was a travesty. We have to follow their accents, are ours so difficult for them?

I totally agree about David Tennant, quizzy but, I couldn't seem to take him seriously, and the woman detective appeared to have watched the great Olivia Coleman's facial expressions and, copied them.

I won't be watching it again. :)

I've just read the other posts, has it been on already? I thought that last night was the first episode.

[chrissa1]

Agreed, zebo.

I watched one episode; at least I could understand what he said this time!

Ha ha, neti.
