Anybody else watch this series on Acorn TV? Stars Guy Pearce as a former lawyer turned investigator. Season one is basically three movies, at about an hour and a half each. Looks like future episodes are about an hour or so. So far, we’re enjoying it, as it’s fairly noir-ish in nature and well acted.

I think Acorn TV is only $5 a month. Lots of British and other TV on there.

I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit. Especially Jack’s horse-track bettor friends.
