ridiculously high murder rate in the show. If it wasn't done so well it would be preposterous.

live in Causton. Daughter Cully says "he's a Townie". Tom says, basically, because the villages are all about madness, incest and murder.

a while ago on Tubi. It was great but I wasn’t happy when the regular guy left and was replaced by someone else. The stories were still great but the first main character was much better.

I have watched every episode multiple times.

I wish someone would wake up and realize that this is what we want, just find a way to make it happen!!

I just don't know that the particular chemistry of setting, plot and characters/actors could be re-created.

John Nettles was key to this show. The other guy just couldn't live up to what he created!
