Mare of Easttown

We are really enjoying this series, Kate Winslet acting is superb. It is not always comfortable viewing but it is thought provoking.

I watched too must of been either Now tv or Netflix I hope there’s another series.

This series is the best one on television at the moment. Really enjoying it. Kate Winslet is superb as Mare and l love the exchanges between her character and her Mother.

Is this on Netflix?

I wish we’d watched it from the start.

I didn’t like it, only watched half of the first episode.

I think it is brilliant too.
All episodes are available on NowTV by the way

silverlining48 it’s a Sky Atlantic production but also available on Now TV.

thankyou. will check it out. Think we have now as we have netflix with our dd.

If you get back to this thread lemongrove I'd be interested to know why you disliked it?

Namsnanny

I struggled with the first episode, but so pleased I persevered.

We live it we think it’s the best thing on TV . Kate Winslet is really superb in it and there’s so many layers which is what I like . There’s lots of complex relationships which are all believable. Even touches of humour . Brilliant!

Mainly the character that Winslet was playing Namsnanny I just couldn’t get interested in her at all.
I have a twentyfive minute rule these days with tv....if am not hooked after that time I find something else to watch.?

It’s extremely interesting and I have looked forward to the next episode each week. It’s gritty and thought provoking.

I thought Kate Winslett was great in this and there were twists, turns and cliff hangers all the way. I thought the last episode a bit disappointing and left some unanswered questions. Do you think they’ll have a 2nd series? What happened to DJ?

I do hope that there is a second series as I really enjoyed this one.

I loved this and was very impressed by Kate Winslet.

It was a very good series. Didn’t Mare’s friend’s husband ask her to look after the baby because it was his and she agreed? This was when he was in prison after he’d been arrested. I would like another series of this.

I thought this was excellent. Pretty grim storyline, but riveting. Incredible acting by all actually but especially Kate Winslet.

Just finished watching this on Amazon Prime. I was hooked from the start. Loved the actress who played Mare's mother she bought some light relief at times. Lots of twists and turns and a few scary moments.

The first episode was a bit of a "shall I bother to watch more" one but I decided to watch the second and that got into the story line more.
Bit of a shock when the other detective got shot, I liked him.

Yes jusnoneed I felt the same way about the younger detective.
They positioned his death at a pivotal point in their relationship, which made it all the more poignant.

With regards to others who disliked the first episode (Thank you Lemongrove and GrannyGravy for replying), I found it difficult too.

But the in following episodes the characters began to reveal themselves.

I liked it, but I read there isnt to be a second series which is a shame.

I'm late to this series, which somehow my husband acquired for us from a friend via Now TV.

The best series I've seen for a long time, I feel bereft now it's finished we binged watched it. Kate Winslet seems to turn in an outstanding performance in whatever she turns her hand to.

I know there is some good stuff on both Netflix and Amazon, but such a lot of dross too........ob to find something of this calibre to feast on.

Thanks for this recommendation, I'd have missed it otherwise. Like some others, I took a while to get into it, but was glad I persisted. Really excellent, I need something else now.
