TV: Fortitude (2015)****(*)

I'm trying really hard not to include any details or spoilers in this ode to Fortitude. I think everyone deserves a chance to stumble upon it with little to no knowledge about the show and enjoy it all the better. This trail doesn't give anything away either:

If the X-Files and Fargo met at a bar, got drunk and had sex, then their one-night-stand child would be named Fortitude!

This show amazingly takes you on a roller coaster ride of plot lines and vectors, twists and turns, from mystery, to small town drama, to National Geographic, to science fiction. All of that and this show managed to keep me on the edge of my seat wanting more.

Fortitude is the craziest show I've ever seen and I loved it! I don't think they can make a second season, but considering the ending there is a possibility they will try.

I'm sure I could watch it again and still enjoy it, therefore I'm giving Fortitude four stars with one in reserve ****(*) for being utterly engaging and entertaining. The last star is on hold until I can enjoy this a second time, hopefully with an unsuspecting viewing partner or group.
I CAN'T WAIT TO TALK WITH SOMEONE ABOUT THIS SHOW!

Just read online that there will be a Season 2!

I watched the entire season on Amazon Video.
