Going back for a rewatch. The cinematography by Ole Bratt Birkelund is stunning. Every single item, piece of clothing, furniture, every single piece of color and scenery and the geometry on the screen is meticulously planned.
Doing another rewatch of this. Quantum levels above most shows in the last decade and eerily topical once again.
I’m not sure how I missed this, but I’m loving it. Even if the Amazon adaptation is a disappointment at least it made me aware of the original.
Whew!! Your answer helped me with my feelings! Thank you so much!!
de nada
How cool is that? I’ve got my own haters now. Be calm and carry on.
Congrata’lations. You is one o’ de kool kids now!
A dubious distinction for sure.
Well, now you have a Fan Club! That is so weird b/c I said “Kool Kats” today and felt embarrassed. Now I just feel like Kool Kid Fan Club President:) U did that, King Grasshopper!
Both my son and I watched the first episode.(2020 Amazon, didn’t know there was an original) An hour of our lives we can’t get back, and wish we spent watching the stars through his telescope hahahaha…. simply awful.

Well, I hope David Fincher plays some role in the directing of the US remake. This was truly a masterpiece
One of my Favorite shows. Once BBC cancelled it, David Fincher was suppose to pick it up with HBO but they wouldnt give him the budget he wanted, So he went with Netflixs “Mindhunter”. But this is still worth a watch. and One can only hope it gets revived. one of these years.
Apparently Amazon got the rights and a few Hands are already cast. I doubt it’ll do the original Justice but it’ll be good to hopefully finally see an ending to the series.
For people who have a hard time understanding thick Brit and Scots accents I recommend getting English subs online and adding those until you get used to the way they talk.
Thanks to the streamer/s!!!
an Amazon version is coming out this month, so I suggest checking out the original while you can.
Will the UK version disappear then? Never heard of that.
Filming of the Amazon Prime US remake (Utopia 2020) completed October 2019. Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl, Sharp Objects) is lead writer and executive producer. Cast is impressive - includes Sasha Lane, Rainn Wilson, Dan Byrd, Cory Michael Smith, Ashleigh LaThrop, Desmin Borges, Farrah Mackenzie, Christopher Denham, John Cusack, Jeanine Serralles.
I have the flu and couldn’t find anything else to watch so ended up with this. I’m angry with myself for spending my time on it. What a horrible series. Had a good premise and could have been good but wasn’t. Becky and Ian were only there to whine and complain..the whole bloody time. I’m on the last episode and don’t really even get what’s going on. Really, really awful.
