I figured it'd be better to talk about it here instead of the Anna thread on the Fringe board

I encourage everyone to give it a try! Just a warning that it's a slow burn show that doesn't have action every five seconds so if constant fast paced action is your thing this show probably isn't for you.

Thanks for opening!

I've seen 4 eps and I'm enjoying it. My favorite is Holden & Bill's dynamic. And Anna is amazing on this one but I'd need to watch more eps as I've only seen Dr. Carr in 2 eps so far. The serial killers though, especially that actor who plays Kemper?

Btw, we can talk about the show here but please use spoiler tags when discussing the eps in detail. The tags come off one week from the premiere on Netflix so no more tags on Saturday, October 21st. Thanks everyone.

I agree about this.

I always forget to use sp tags so I'll just wait until the week is over

Kemper is such an interesting character, he's bad yet so friendly

Just wrapping this up. I wasn't sure what to expect. Was it going to be tracking down serial killers? Kind of? Definitely a slow burn with as much time being given to studying what makes serial killers tick as it does to solving crimes. Heck, even more. But it really picks up.

I'm down to the last 3 eps. I agree that it picks up towards the middle but I got roped in by episode 2.

Glad that you like it. Not talking about people here but other sites I wish people were more open to the slower moving shows

What is the coding for spoilers again? Thanks

I'm 4 eps in, the first ep didn't catch me really, after the 2nd and 3rd I got more drawn in, I really liked the 4th one, I feel like the story is really slowly unfolding right now
