That's a very good point, but simply regarding edge1710's question, it is a bit strange because the revenants reappear where they have died (although we only know that for sure for Camille at this point), which could make one think their bodies are still buried, yet they aren't - it's all very mysterious. But the…

I did watch it back in 2012, shortly after the French broadcast, so I know how they feel ;) But the wait is still a bit ridiculous (though Canal+ generally has a pretty bad track record), reaching Sherlock proportions here - autumn 2014? Come on! But I trust the wait will be worth it.

Yes, that happens to my aunt too, who now lives in Denmark and every time she comes back to Germany is slightly irritated by it. Very little things are left undubbed, mostly small foreign films. The French dub everything as well, and mostly not very well.

I agree, what I meant with me being in dire need of a second season that I really want to know what happens next, not how they'll explain what is going on, which might be futile to try anyways.

I think Victor is perfectly cast as well, though quite a few people seem to disagree. I am, however, a bit worried about the fact that Swann Nambotin, who plays Victor, is going to experience a bit of growing up in the almost two-year span between the shooting of season 1 and 2.

I feel like I'm seriously the only person who didn't even feel the twin thing was a reveal at all. I mean, when I watched it a year ago it felt like a non-reveal to me, and I can't remember having been spoiled before. I do remember seeing a picture of two identical girls, looking like the one who just came back from…

I think it's not as clear cut as that, given the fact that, you know [SPOILER] there was a person standing in the middle of the road for no reason at all - that we know of, at least.
But this is, thankfully, not a show that feels compelled to address these sort of questions explicitly, because it is largely concerned…

Your loss, then (though I will simply assume you're joking so I may keep the little faith I have left in mankind). Would you overflow with pity if I told you that the poor Scandinavians basically have no dubbed films, documentaries and series at all and have to watch everything with subtitles?

I actually binged-watched it shortly after the original French broadcast (don't aks how); well, to be fair, I watched it over three days or something. It's one of those shows that are just so ideal for that because the atmosphere just takes you right in. Plus, every episode basically leaves you curious about what's…

Yeah, you're right, and I didn't really think about until well after my second round of watching it. The atmosphere still sucks me right in, but when I think about it too hard afterwards, it loses a bit of that because I overthink it (I'm probably traumatized by trying to follow nine seasons of X-Files mythology). I'm…

It would be a spoiler if I answered the question, albeit not an extremely significant one. So read on if you don't mind..

Yeah, I agree. The best part about Annecy, though, which isn't visible in the show, is that while it still has the great Alps panorama, it is also beautifully situated by a lake and has a fantastic townscape.

This is a really very, very good show. I'd give it an overall A-. I have watched it two times now (back in November 2012 and about two months ago), and it never fails to reel me in with its atmosphere.
I'm also particularly fond of Julie and Victor (strangely enough, this was actually one of the elements negatively…

No, it's something Canal+ is very fond of and they do it usually, for example with Spiral and Braquo. There's a show (thirty minute comedy) which was aired in three-episode blocks. I don't know why. Some other networks in France do it, too, but it doesn't have thematic reasons (or else they would escape me).

Boy, I'm having such a hard time picturing the slimy douche-y banker from Sherlock as Jonathan Strange, but on the other hand, he is probably quite an actor to make me loathe such a minor character so much, so I shall have faith and wait in anticipation. (Plus, Strange himself is at time a tad disagreeable, so…)
I do…

I suppose it happens and the writers might not have been aware. Fun fact: that actress called Abigail Spencer also played a character on Mad Men named like a real person: Suzanne Farrell, famed ballet dancer and Balanchine muse.

True. Then again, I'm always having trouble thinking of a topic that is not silly for Ryan Murphy… (but yeah, female empowerment + Murphy = inherently silly. Dangerous territory.)

I agree about "Invocation" being more enjoyable within the moment than in retrospect. What has stayed with me, though, is the title - I like that word - and especially the haunting melody at the beginning which is reprised, with a lamenting flute (I believe), at the end. (I don't suppose that this is what a writer…

Yes, this is what Ryan Murphy said in an interview: "I heard a lot last year, ‘I love it but it’s hard to sit through.’ So I wanted this year to be easier to sit through. A little more light in tone."
I think I realized this was going to be different from last year when Frances Conroy showed up looking like a cross…

I actually agree with you. I constantly feel that there is an air of wide-eyed phlegm around Farmiga, and I can't connect to her character at all. It becomes clear as day when compared to other actors around her, but it could still get better. Charisma-wise, she is like a black hole (and me having in mind Vera Farmiga…
