We finished with our customers from San Fransisco about 9:30 pm so we were exhausted. I made a quick cold dinner of roast pork and fresh mozzarella with a light salad. We sat down to veg out in front of the TV but we had a dilemma. We had seen all of the stuff that we had put on the DVR and were stuck with live TV or Netflicks. We had also run through most of the series were following on Netflicks expect for the Caribbean British Police procedural show "Murder in Paradise." We like to save that for when we are lying down because that shit puts you asleep faster than any narcotic. So I had to find something new.
Well I think I did. There is another British Police Procedural called "Broadchurch." Coincidentally it stars the same dude that played the lawyer in the "Escape Artist" that we had just finished. He is a
pretty good actor so we decided to give it a chance.
It is set in Dorset a seaside community of England. It is the dark side of a show like Doc Martin. You get to visit a close knit insular community and meet the eccentric people who make up the town. But this is the dark side and you get to see how fucked up people can be.
This show deals with a pretty grim subject which is the murder of a child. The parents are naturally suspects and there are various creepy people who you think might be the perp. I am only two shows in but it seems engrossing. It has two seasons and they signed for a third so that's cool.
Tentatively recommended.
