    The cinematography is great. Too slow, too many suspects. Flat characters. Forced American accent, not many likeable characters. Its even hard to feel sorry for D.T. character

    If the first episode is an example of what is to come, I would considering canceling unless this is to become a comedy. Not only is this as a mystery a terrible start, but the slow performance of the actors, pauses, lack of direction, and lack of a plot will keep you wondering when will this end?

    I would be surprised if this survives all 9 remaining, episodes. It reminds me of a home

    I would be surprised if this survives all 9 remaining, episodes. It reminds me of a home movie, or class play that just has gone wrong and the actors hate the script and it shows, and a director that is absent.

    Good grief and good luck :(

    Just because (many) americans are too ignorant to watch a tv show that has a weird accent (anything but their own) doesn't mean they have to remake to make it accessible. Stop remaking so much of our stuff and think up your own ideas. Just go and watch the original first season of Broadchurch, it's better. Get over our "funny" accents, we put up with all of your tv series and films.

    As a raw police procedural, Gracepoint thrives thanks to legitimately unsettling twists, sharp revelations that focus our attention on new suspects. But it's in Carver and Miller’s competing worldviews that the show finds something more substantial to work with.

    A smart, well-written and absorbing psychological drama about the effects of a horrible crime on a close-knit small town.

    The problem is that Gracepoint lacks the expression and personality of either "The Killing" or "Broadchurch."
