This is a show that went pretty under-the-radar, but in terms of BBC quality programming, this is top notch. It's dense, the characters are wonderful, it's a mystery, and two seasons of 6 episodes makes it relatively easy to watch.
It's a bit difficult to find these days, but I say this rivals "Deadwood" as the biggest "What if it hadn't been cancelled?" in TV history. Peter Capaldi's performance in series 2 is absolutely entrancing.

Just watched the pilot and its glorious.
Many in the cast from The Wire and of course David Simon is writer/producer.

Taskmaster. Coming soon to the US.
There are no clips that really do the show justice.- Not going to lie, I quite liked this, stupid and pointless as it may be.detritus
- It's shite really but I honestly can't think of a show that has made me laugh out loud so much. I'm not much of a LOLer but this show gets me time after time.Hayzilla
- I spammed it last year some time, much to the chagrin of my ever critical gwife...detritus
- ^ Umm In English?Hayzilla
- spammed - watched it all in one go
chagrin - disquietude caused by disappointment
gwife - non-married partnerdetritus - fucking keep up.detritus
- yep, this is good tv. Puts all the other generic panel shows to shame. That's not saying much I guess but mainstream tv doesn't HAVE to be shitFax_Benson

I had no idea how dark The Handmaid's Tale is. I just started watching the 90s film and downloaded the few episodes in.
