Is this anything like The Killing? If so, I'll probably keep what is on my DVR and get around to it soon.

Kinda like it, without all the rain.

Wow, Anna Gunn has lost a lot of weight. She looks like a praying mantis with a giant head and such a skinny neck.

Funny how this was initially one of the most anticipated series of the Fall, yet it appears that no one is watching it.

I've never seen Broadchurch, so I'm watching this with relatively fresh eyes. But the premise at least IMO is quite similar to The Killing.

Fox couldn't have put it in a worse time slot, opposite the NFL and Scandal. I don't think it would have ended up being a hit regardless, but it had no chance on Thursday night.

It's a shame too because it's a great show. I'm entertained every week. Need to watch Broadchurch now.

I agree. I'm totally addicted to it!

I'm glad this flopped, maybe they'll make fewer unnecessary remakes now. I can just about understand when a TV series like The Bridge or The Killing gets remade because they are in a foreign language, but remaking the English Broadchurch seems totally unnecessary.

Yeah its really great. Excellent cast, great shooting locations, and a storyline that keeps you watching.

I enjoy both!

a large portion of this was filmed in my home town.

I tried to give the opening episode a fair go but I'm not interested in a shot for shot remake with an inferior cast.

Is this worth watching if you've seen Broadchurch? I just finished the series on Netflix, and I'm interested in Gracepoint due to the fact that it's supposed to branch off into different territory (with a different killer) after the sixth or so episode. Is it worth wading through what is said to be a shot-for-shot remake for the first six episodes to get to the new/different stuff?
