Anyone watching this? It's really good. I love these crime Whodunnits. David Tennant (Dr. Who) and Anna Gunn (Skylar on Breaking Bad) are the main characters. Sort of along the same line as that old show Harper's Island.

This one, we have to figure out who killed a kid, Danny Solano.

Unlike Harper's Island where I knew immediately who the killer was, I haven't a clue yet on this one.

I think they all did it, just like
Murder on the Orient Express.

Anyway, this has hooked me. Anyone want to share their thoughts?

I've been wondering if this is worth watching, so thanks for the rec :) The premise reminded me a bit of Top of the Lake, which I loved (watched it on Netflix last year). How many episodes in are they, DJ?

Oh cool! I think they are 4 episodes in. I'm enjoying it, but I also enjoyed Harper's Island and that was pretty cheesy and transparent. But this one, there are so many red herrings thrown out, I'm not sure which stinky fish to pick up and blame!!!

I've got Top of the Lake in my queue, and I've never heard of Broadchurch! I will definitely have to find this now!
