Mare of Easttown

This show by HBO and staring Kate Winslet is excellent.

Just finished the entire season. Truly great TV. Great story, great acting and loved all the twists and turns.

It is fantastic acting. A great 7-part binge now. The acting excels and I thought it would turn out a psychological drama but instead turned into a who-done-it with dozens of twists and turns that make you dizzy.

Well Gentlemen I have to agree...the acting was superb.

What a horrid person Mare turned out to be... her own son commits suicide because she remained ignorant of the fact  depression and suicide run in families even after her own father's suicide. She could have gotten him treatment....would have been no guarantee but might have helped with the guilt trip she that the lack of action imposed on her daughter who is obviously also suicidal and looking for a mother in her choice of girlfriends.

She then plants drugs on the kid's mother without considering what that might do to him in the long run out a selfish desire to keep him from her. If there were justice she should have gotten 5 to 10 years in Allentown.

I could go on and on about getting her partner killed, betraying friends etc, etc... and all we get for justice is Zabel's mom giving her a good slapping.

but sadly given given the quality of current television drama...this was top notch.

My co-worker tells me I should watch it because of how much I liked Big Little Lies.

Need to find time.

What do you think of the rumors of season 2 already being worked on? I thought it ended so perfectly and it worked as a limited series that a second would just ruin it.
