I went to put Gracepoint in my queue and the photo on Hulu includes an actor I know and have worked with many times. Ug. I don't dislike him as a person, but I just don't like watching him act. Why does he keep getting cast in things? He's always the same.

OTOH, the cinematography is gorgeous. The colours are so rich in crisp in many scenes.
And I'm gonna have to rewatch at least the pilot of Broadchurch to see if I'm just crazy about finding AG's performance annoying.

General procedural question: When the cops talk about getting dental records for identification, how the heck do they find out who the victim's dentist is? Don't they have to have an ID so they can find the family so they can find the dentist?

If someone has been reported missing, I suppose it's possible their dental records would be in a searchable system. Otherwise I would think it could only be used to confirm an already suspected identity.

Gracepoint: issues with AG have disappeared since the second ep. Yay!
As far as comparisons go between the two shows, I didn't bawl during the pilot like I did with Broadchurch (I think it might have taken me two hours to watch that, what with all the crying breaks I had to take). So, good for my tender emotions and tearducts, but not as effective in conveying the devastation of losing a child and a friend.

I did not see the original Gracepoint, so comparisons cannot be made. I've read that I may enjoy it more that way.
I am done with HTGAWM. just watch 2 eps back to back and nope, cannot deal at all. all of them unlikable.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't mind not liking any of the characters. They're all just puzzle pieces to me and as long as I eventually get presented with some kind of solution I think I am okay with that.
