Did anyone else watch The Bridge?

On FX? It was actually pretty good. I like a good crime/mystery show. It's sort of like a mix between Law and Order SVU and The Killing. I think I may have found a new favoriteish show.

DH was thinking about it, but didn't. I'll have to tell him you liked it

I didn't watch the last half hour but I thought it was pretty good.  The main female character is a little annoying though.  But Buffalo Bill, yay!

Yeah, she was a little much. She might end up like the Elliot Stabbler (SVU) of this show. Kind of a douche, but then has good moments in between. I'm gonna call it now and say it's the Detective from Mexico. Something about him strikes me as odd.

And Betty, it seems to be like it would a good show to follow. I def recommend it to your hubby.

I watched a half hour of it, but was too tired to watch anymore. The reason she seemed odd and why her boss was telling her " do not forget to make eye contact" they were attempting to have her portray a person with aspergers features. I read an article on the show. I have a feeling its going to get scary and I do not do scary well I might watch it again.

I didn't know that!!! I had seen a commercial for it a few months back, forgot all about it, then saw a few more commercials the other night and decided to watch it. I did not pre-show reading about it at all. I had figured they were setting her up to be a very jaded character, like she was totally numb to horrible scenes for having been on the job too long. This for sure makes a interesting twist in the story.

FX tends to pick up semi off beat/scary shows though. Examples: Justified and American Horror Story (mmmm Evan Peters...)

Also, what is with this FXX?  Is that going to be a new network?

I just read up on that. Apparently it's aimed at "men 18-34 years old".....?? and they will have a mix of comedy, sports, and drama movies and shows. Interesting.
