Mare of Easttown

Kate Winslet is an outstanding actress and the other actors are right at her level! The storylines are intriguing and have kept me tuning in each week. BRAVO HBO! I really appreciate how Kate portrays REAL WOMEN - the good, the bad, the ugly - without apologies or compromises.

I definitely wasn't expecting to like Mare of Easttown as much as I did. The trailers for it just looked ok and Kate Winslet is always good in everything she does but I still put it off because it only looked ok. I was wrong. It was better than ok, it was flat out good. I was bored and looking for something new to watch and heard nothing but good things about this series and so I finally started watching it. Once I started I couldn't stop, I binged all seven episodes over the course of a weekend. I know it was only suppose to be a one season miniseries but I've read that because it did so well that they might do another season. I hope they do and this time I won't put it off for so long.

I can't believe how much I enjoyed Mare of Easttown. It's about a small town Pennsylvania homicide detective who's life falls apart around her as she investigates a murders. She's also a home town basketball hero so the entire town knows her. Even though it's gotten great reviews and has been nominated for just about every award I was still hesitant about watching it. I was wrong. It was fantastic! The writing and acting (especially Kate Winslet) are some of the best of the year. The twists and turns will keep you at the edge of your seat and guessing what's going to happen next. All the hype surrounding this show is much deserved. If you haven't seen it yet give it a chance, you won't be disappointed!

I literally watched all 7 episodes in 1 day. Then, after it had all ended, I didnt know what to do with my life.

This series is a masterpiece! The writing is brilliant, the story is so good and the acting is second to none. This is a slow burner that will keep you captivated till the very end. Absolutely amazing.

They never missed anything. Every single possible detail. Nothing happens without a reason. Not even a single word was wasted. Everything had a reason. In todays' world of tv(steaming) and cinema cliches, here is a story so very well told. The writing I think is pitch perfect. All the leads as well as the not so leads gave more than one hundred percent.

The setting, Easttown, I have seldom seen that kind of adapting an environment than here before. Well done!

I thing it is an Kate Winslet vehicle, all attributes and all those specific attributes unravelling, those have Kate stamp all over. But dont get me wrong, even Kate cannot get to those heights without the support. Possibly Kate's aura made all things streamlined, well ... possibly vice-versa, like for an example, Julianne Nicolson? Some others too ... Guy Pearce, Jean Smart, Thompson, Huff ... a few which comes to my mind. I dont know. The verdict is, "MUST WATCH".
