If you're not watching this, I highly recommend you start doing so!

Its a French 'crime thriller' (available with English subtitles ofc)

UK users: Its on Channel 4 Sundays at 9pm
French users: You had it last year...
US + Other: No idea...

Taken from IMDB;

Opens in a small mountain community which is rocked to its core when several local people who are presumed dead suddenly re-appear at their homes. Despite having passed away some years earlier, these ghostly characters appear in human form, they have not aged, and they are completely unaware of their own fatality. Determined to reclaim their lives and start over, they slowly come to realize that they are not the only ones to have been brought back from the dead. Their return augers torment for their community when a series of gruesome murders bear a chilling resemblance to the work of a serial killer from the past. This is a homecoming like no other.

I watched the first two episodes on TV & was hooked, so went ahead and watched the whole series (I couldn't wait). It's incredibly creative, beautifully shot, brilliant acting, a gripping story & there's an awesome soundtrack too.

It's the most creative and interesting take on a zombie apocalypse I've seen! Although extremely different and hard to compare, it makes The Walking Dead look cheap and amateurish.

Anyone watching?

Season 2 isn't until November 2014 I hear :(

Loved the series. I stumbled upon it by accident and could not put it down once I started watching. They chose a beautiful filming location in Haute-Savoie.

I had mistakenly assumed it's an end-to-end miniseries and was confused by the last episode, before I found out a second season is in the works.

I thought the same about it being an end-to-end series. Normally shows of this quality tend to fall into that category.

It is indeed beautiful! I'm in the south of France later this year and I'll be staying clear of any dams :embar:.
