2014 BEST TV DRAMA #1 -> Rectify


Because…



  • Slow-moving, engrossing and powerful.

  • Absorbing and fascinating.

  • Unbearable tension in simple moments.

  • The complexities of these characters amaze me. They get deeper and deeper with every episode. Sheriff Daggett and Ted Jr. are probably the best, because we really have no idea what they will do next…

  • Rarely does this show focus on the murder, or Daniel’s legal troubles, for very long. But when it does… it is utterly gripping and very rewarding.

  • At times it can be as intense as anything I’ve ever seen on TV.

  • The Ted/Tawney fight was so painful in places, it was difficult to watch.

  • Rectify is a deceptive show: nothing much appears to happen, yet when you look back there has been a huge amount of pain, suffering, mystery, confrontation, revelation and… change. Yet most episodes seem tranquil…
