THE FALL
January 16, 2015  | By David Bianculli

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

NEW SEASON PREMIERE: Like Downton Abbey, this series crosses the Atlantic after being seen in the United Kingdom, but with a fan base on both sides of the ocean eager for more episodes, whenever they’re delivered. Netflix, which added Season 1 of The Fall to its roster not too long ago, beginning today provides the entirety of the just-completed Season 2. Gillian Anderson continues her role as Stella, the investigator heading the hunt for serial killer Paul (Jamie Dornan), whose identity she had not quite discovered as Season 1 ended. For fans of quality TV, The Fall is a strong mystery on its own merits, but also quite a treat because of its casting: Anderson became a star because of The X-Files, Dornan is about to become a big one because of Fifty Shades of Grey, and supporting actress Archie Panjabi is just wrapping up her attention-demanding role as Kalinda on The Good Wife.
