Let me say I didn't know anything about the real case but now I do. Chilling! Colin Firth';s close ups as Michael Peterson are downright chilling. His discomfort mixed with his arrogance are everpresent and a dislocating humanity that makes this terrific series utterly compelling. Toni Collette, Juliette Binoche, Michael Stuhlbarg and the rest of the cast makes it one of the best TV I've seen in a long time - And I've seen some terrific stuff - Colin Firth that I discovered in "Apartment Zero" continues to surprise and amaze.
