THE FALL (2013 - ) First Series A+

When the Belfast police are stalled in their investigation of a spate of murders, Detective Superintendent Stella Gibson is drafted to investigate. Very good acting and story telling for people who are interested in a TV Series about a serial killer of women.  Surely not for everyone.


Five episodes that I thought would end with the abduction of the killer.  Will not tell you how it ended.  Season 2 not available yet on Netflix


From another typical reviewer

Excellent character development

9/10

Well written, excellent cinematography, keeps you hooked and on the edge of your seat. Characters are complex, and not predictable, also developed as the plot develops. Certainly there are some details that are not believable, mistakes that you don't think a serial killer would make, but they are easily overcome because of the writing and character development, and th eeriness of the storyline. If you want a comparison, think of Dexter or The Killing. Not much humor in the daily on goings of the characters, Very dark and serious, don't know if that's more common in Irish series. But you certainly want to keep watching it.
