Did anyone watch the 3-part series "Ascension?" If so, what did you make of the ending?
-
I randomly picked the show "Gracepoint" from on demand without knowing anything about the show .... I was in the mood to take a chance ..... I ended up watching the whole series and liked it ..... usually I go on someone's recommendation or watch something that people have been buzzing about ..... watching the shows from 4 to 5 seasons back and then catch up ..... I dropped a lot of channels to try and reduce my bills ..... there are some that I watched multiple seasons and will miss But that bill was climbing way too high for the amount of shows that I do watch.

The original British version (also with David Tennant but with his normal Scottish accent) called Broadchurch was MUCH better! You should check it out.

I'll have to try that one day if I can find it

I, on the other hand, am just the opposite! My one DVR died yesterday (it got quite a bit of use over the past 7 years!) and so had to set the other one in my exercise room to record stuff. DirecTV said a new one will arrive Friday.

I found it easily on Netflix and binge watched it in a few days .... enjoyed it .... some differences but close ..... I knew what was going to happen Good to see - appreciate that David Tennant was in both

Were the endings the same? I had read they were going to end Gracepoint differently, but then I happened to catch the finale on a break at work and I think it was the same killer.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!! [do not go further if you do not want to know now] SPOILER ALERT !!!! [You have been warned] I did those alerts in case someone wants to see the show now Broadchurch had the killer do it alone .... Gracepoint had the killer's son there too ..... so he knew what happened that night - David Tennant - replays the video (finished on his phone) .... and hears the type of response he got during that interview ...... so it ends ..... but then he looks into the camera .... wait .... is there more? Did it really end ? Was the man covering for his son ? ..... (I am leaving a lot out ..... but that being different for sure).

There is more! I just saw on TV that Broadchurch will have a 2nd season! SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!! Don't scroll down if you don't want to know the ending! What I was wondering was the killer the husband of the female detective in both shows? (I think so)
-
I looked up the detective's husband(s) On the movie & television data base: They are different people.

No, you don't understand. I know the characters were played by different people. What I was asking was this: In both Broadchurch & Gracepoint was the killer the husband of the female detective?

Yes. The killer was/is the detective woman's Husband. (At this time - end of season one). Both shows

Andi Eigenmann, Jake Ejercito and Bret Jackson are on local TV since last week. Particularly Andi. It's getting annoying already.

My DH & I watched the season premiere of the Good Witch series. Really, really good show but was disappointed that they killed Jake off & that Brandon is being played by someone else.
