This show is pretty damn good so far.

Is that the remake of the Danish show?

It's originally Danish-Swedish I think. Probably about the Malmö-Kopenhagen bridge hmm

?

I'm watching the US version and I think it's pretty good. Getting even better actually.
Had to get used to Diane Kruger's acting but it's a good series.

I also watched a couple of episodes of the British-French remake "the tunnel" lol, was decent but I didn't continue.

Yup.

Diane Kruger is the female American lead and Demian Bichir is the male Mexican lead.

Kruger's character has Asperger's syndrome which is why her acting is so erratic at times. I think it's still pretty well done though.

Is misfits worth checking out or is it meh?

It's fantastic if it's your sort of humour. The story is pretty solid and keeps you engaged. The characters are the best part of it(you will get to see Ramsay Snow in a completely different character). I would recommend it till Season 4. You will understand why when you come to that point.

But yea, give it a go.

I love Misfits and while Season 5 might not have been on par with the first couple of seasons, I enjoyed it. If you make it through the first 4 seasons, I suggest you give season 5 a chance.

I watched the first season and thought it was decent. It's very slow though. I was waiting for the second season to finish to so I can watch it all at once.

Emmys tonight. This is who or what I want to win, don't care about others.

Best Drama- Breaking Bad
Best Actor in Drama- Matthew Mcconaughey
Best Supporting Actor in Drama- Peter Dinklage
Best Writing- Breaking Bad: Ozymandias
Best Directing- True Detective: Who Goes There?
Best Miniseries- Fargo

And all the Fargo actors to win the awards in their respective categories. Sadly it looks like Thornton won't win.
