I'd would like to see the BBC series. Was it running on BBC America? ABC's is starting to hit its stride. Some of the characters are definitely fitting their roles such as Det. Carling. He will get much bigger work beyond this show. Geez, this guy was one the template for most of my sister's boyfriends through the 70's & (2) husbands!
Surprising though is Keitel's lack of energy. I have a feeling that he will be gone if if the show continues another season. He is just kind of lethargic and does not sell his lines. Still, I am hanging with it. The show has a good vibe and and the music rotation is great. They keep pulling out one-hit wonders for background. I don't think I'd heard this one since the mid 70's. I definitely had forgotten it but knew every word and where I was back then -
