Anyone who watched the original British "trilogy" knows exactly how to do it.
Should I reveal more?

Borgen is another great series. And "Trapped" from Iceland last year was amazing.
I liked Fortitude a lot, but it didn't get terrific reviews.

(52,253 posts)it might have worked out perfectly a couple episodes ago.
but i'm sure the writers could figure it out.
frankly (pun intended), i think the series would be fine without spacey, i think claire is nicely set up to be at least as diabolical.

(28,941 posts)He's just feral now. Claire seems still capable of self awareness and control. A good character has to have some internal conflict; otherwise they're merely predictable.
I hope the producers and writers figure out a way to work around Frank.

The producers just eat the investments?
