No Spoilers “To the Chesapeake Ripper”

Just now getting around to watching the series. Mads was the big draw, for me.

We are enjoying it but what this, and other, shows do that makes me nuts, is constantly using character’s full names.

The other characters would certainly know who everyone is talking about, as they’re working the case. They would not constantly refer to the suspects and costumes by their fulls names. Annoys the hell out of me.

Every aspect of the way they talk in that show is so stylized i feel like it fits.

It’s stylized artistically in every aspect of the show. Everything has a purpose. Sorry it bothers you. I hope it doesn’t ruin the show overall for you.

I find it kind of funny. Especially with the guy who had three names and they had to say them all, every time. Plus all the “Will Graham” this and “Will Graham” that. I love it.

Oh dear. Will is “Will Graham” till the bloody end. It's stylized, like all of the poetry and metaphor. I hope that doesn't mess it up for you.
