Henning Mankell's Wallander on PBS

I just read a very promising New York Times review of the PBS Masterpiece Mystery production of Wallander. I am very excited to watch the first episode tonight. I have only read a couple of the Henning Mankell books which introduce the detective, played in this series by Kenneth Branagh, but have loved what I read. A gritty, troubled, and thoughtful detective.....yes, it sounds like you've heard this before... but Wallander lives and works in rural Sweden. Great stuff!!!

Of course, I have to DVR it so I can watch the finale of the Amazing Race. I'll be happy with any of the final teams winning at this point. I just hope it is an exciting finish.
