Has anyone seen this? I just discovered it tonight. It's a Canadian show that reveals the killer at the start and then shows how it happened. I really liked it because it isn't full of snappy one-liners or snark the way American crime dramas are. It just has a different, cool vibe.

ETA: forgot to mention - in many cases, the killer winds up having sympathetic reasons for the kill, which makes the story a bit more complicated.

Never heard of it - but they have the first 5 episodes of season on Hulu Plus so I just added them to my queue to check out this weekend

I'll be interested to know what you think. It's not the greatest show ever, but it's a mildly refreshing change of pace from what American crime dramas have become.

I just watched it the other night and liked it. I'm a huge SVU fan so I like those kind of shoes. I liked their little twist of showing who did it at the beginning.

Yes, we've watched the American version (not the original Canadian one) from the first episode last season. I love it. I like the neat twist of seeing who the killer and victim are at the beginning, then discovering why the murder happened.

Also, every time I see the lead actor, I think of the Breaking Bad "Say My Name" episode.

I really like what I have seen but I usually fall asleep half way through. I'm happy to hear it is on Hulu.

I've seen 2 episodes so far, and I'll keep watching. It is a nice change of pace- less dramatic and frantic than USA crime shows. Thanks for posting about it
