the journey of TD1 was so good, it makes the ending seem lesser. mare was more consistent, but never reached the highs of TD1 (watch the six minute tracking shot scene following Rust at the drug house as a refresher).Mickey wrote:Yeah so Mare actually did wrap up satisfyingly, hence it's better than the red herring factory of TD S1.spike wrote:These type of shows never wrap up satisfyingly.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The mystery of who killed Erin McMenamin gave the show its plot, but over the course of seven episodes, it became clear that the series was most interested in exploring the contradictions and conundrums of motherhood
