Looks like this going to be remade for HBO with Fincher directing/producing. Anyone seen the original BBC series?

That is not the death sentence it used to be, at least for dramas, but I will definitely check out the original before the new one airs.

Yo, I searched this before I posted. Apparently not well enough.

Good show. Hopefully Fincher doesn't wreck it.

Fincher's involvement is literally the only reason I'm excited for the remake.

are you suggesting that a conservative firebrand might actually be closeted?

I have not. But it's on my list. I'd like to watch it before this new one.

Pro-Tip: don't order the blu-rays from the UK in the hope that their "region-free" thing will work. Do some research first on your player.

Yeah... where can I find this? It's not on Amazon or Netflix or BBC America. Do I need to do the VPN/BBCPlayer thing to get it?

It's not BBC, it's Channel 4. Search for "4od" and try the Hola/VPN stuff. Otherwise, since it's clearly not coming to the US, coughtorrentscough.

Channel 4 is trying more interesting things than the Beebs right now. It's more willing to back an offbeat show. Black Mirror is freaking great if you haven't seen it yet. The first season of Misfits is great too.
