Finished The Fall!
The Fall is one of those TV shows that has ended up in countless watchlists on the various streaming services it has done time in which I had always meant to dive into but just never did probably because despite the sheer degree of true crime stuff I consume I realized it was likely going to be a pretty unrelentingly dark show by its very nature.
However, I'm glad that I finally did. Gillian Anderson and Jamie Dorman both give absolute powerhouse performances and I love every second on screen and fleeting few they get together is dangerous magic. The writing could get a bit over-the-top and too cute and action movie or soap opera for its own good, but its made up by a lot of great character development and fascinating procedural sections. Every episode is beautifully shot and I enjoy the many good looks we get at different parts of the Belfast area, and let me tell you those accents are to die for.
