About the Series

At once deeply observed and intriguingly elusive, THE AFFAIR explores the emotional effects of an extramarital relationship. Noah is a New York City schoolteacher and novelist who is happily married, but resents his dependence on his wealthy father-in-law. Alison is a young waitress trying to piece her life and marriage back together in the wake of a tragedy. Set in Montauk at the end of Long Island, the provocative drama unfolds separately from both the male and female perspectives, using the distinct memory biases of both to tell the story.

Great minds think alike - we both picked the same avatar. I will change mine when I am back on the computer. Great OP by the way.

OMG, Heidi told me that we had the same one and I went in and changed mine. You go ahead and change yours back. I guess as Mods it's a good idea to represent our guy.

Great Minds do think alike.

It would have been great for us to have had matching Walter and Peter pics though - both from the same scene. I will change mine back when I can find it again.

Did you like my title:"As Season 2 looms we continue to scout out the truth?"

It was a mash up of the other titles suggested.

Reading the article about Hagai Levi in the Cole thread I wonder why he got such a strong cast to back up Ruth and Dominic if he didn't want them to have much input to the show. Perhaps if he had chosen more well known (in the US) actors for the 2 protagonists and unknown actors for the supporting roles, he may have got his wish!

I'm glad he didn't though as at least we are pleased to see Josh and Maura and the rest of the cast shine!

I kind of agree with this statement, but then I think about Josh's latest role being on a sci-fi show and how that draws a completely different audience than what The Affair would draw. Then I think about Ruth's performance in S1 and whether I care for her character or not, she really did do a bang up job. I'm not as impressed with DW as the male lead like I am with Ruth as the female lead, but he did have a successful stint on The Wire, so maybe they were casting him based on that. I don't really know what to think about Maura as I didn't watch the last few years of ER where she played a prominent role, so I really only know her from News Radio and from seeing her on Entertainment Shows in relation to ER.

I think this year will give both Josh and Maura more attention and maybe that was the plan all along.
