------------------------------------------
> PLOT: Multinational immigrants traveling from the old continent to the new encounter a nightmarish riddle aboard a 2nd ship adrift on the open sea
> REVIEW: overall highly praised Pros: casting, directing, acting, cinematography Cons: some say slow pace, others confusing
> REVIEW IMDB: Not a regular period 'Titanic' drama, completely different! Don't let slow start fool you. As more details are added you're left asking questions and rooting for your favorite characters, lots of time exposing their backstory's. Through their "dreams" or is it their "reality" they each share a connection. Music amazing, works for dark atmosphere, fear & curiosity. Multicultural aspect authentic representation of life aboard a turn of the century immigrant ship. Hope a S2 - CreatorMathieu MissoffeStarsSuliane BrahimHubert DelattreLaurent CapellutoA police chief and an eccentric new prosecutor investigate a string of grisly crimes and eerie phenomena in an isolated town at the edge of a forest.

plot-heavy psychological drama captivating from the get-go, with a perfect blend of mystery, family drama, horror, and cop procedural show.

> REVIEWS: RT 71% Google 86%
Google: (better than M Mass) the writers went away from convention and wrote a character - Sister Agatha that was unexpected. Strong, smart & didn't fit into the typical vampire-story mold.
Google: a welcome breath of fresh air, I am loving the twists and turns! Agatha Van Helsing, blinking stroke of genius I’d say!! Lots of humour too, it works & the elements of horror are scary & gruesome This Dracula is suave, sophisticated, witty & bloody scary! Mark Gattis is too much of a horror fan to produce something mediocre & indeed he & Moffat have engineered a masterpiece! It has everything that is good about Sherlock & the wit of The League of Gentlemen who always did scary vampire funny but effective! - CreatorSallie PatrickStephanie SavageJosh SchwartzStarsElizabeth GilliesRafael de la FuenteRobert Christopher RileyFollows two of America's wealthiest families as they feud for control over their fortune and their children.

Chilling, more exciting in 2nd half. Compared to "The Good Nurse," not as concise, but they're different cases with differing levels of detail on the killings & motivations. They share many similarities and are both worth watching - CreatorTed HumphreyDavid E. KelleyStarsManuel Garcia-RulfoBecki NewtonJazz RaycoleNeed a lawyer? Call Mickey Haller.

> PLOT: An iconoclastic idealist runs his law practice out of the back of his Lincoln Town Car
> REVIEW: Dialogue is sharp & witty, There's a comfort to it, well-defined morals & beautiful people. Slickly-acted, fast-moving, not overly ambitious & doesn't need to be. Its appeal comes from being something familiar done very well. Developed by Ted Humphrey (The Good Wife) - CreatorZal BatmanglijBrit MarlingStarsBrit MarlingJason IsaacsScott WilsonHaving gone missing seven years ago, the previously blind Prairie returns home, now in her twenties with her sight restored.
