Guess the TV show

Well, knowing he was in Time Bandits could be enough.
But yes, it is indeed

Cassiebsg · Fri 07/06/2019 15:27:04

That was actually where I started. lol

Anyway, next: (hope I haven't done this one yet, I'm running out of easy available shows

)

Derrick?

Cassiebsg · Fri 07/06/2019 19:48:16

No...

Mandle · Fri 07/06/2019 23:51:12

Better Call Saul?

(I thought it could be a tricky flashback to his childhood which they do a few times from what I've seen)

Cassiebsg · Fri 07/06/2019 23:56:15

No, but here's a tip... when I saw you replied I thought "oh, he knows..."

Mandle · Sat 08/06/2019 13:13:14

Hmmm... there doesn't seem to be anyone driving the car...

Were there ever TV shows of Christine (color and make of car is wrong though) or Maximum Overdrive (or Trucks as the original short story was called)?

Cassiebsg · Sat 08/06/2019 16:01:16

Don't about if those shows exist, but if they do it's not this one.

But you're right, it doesn't seem to be anyone driving the car.

Let's beat some dust...

Mandle · Sat 08/06/2019 16:24:55

Top Of The Lake?

Cassiebsg · Sat 08/06/2019 21:02:46

No, but you getting closer...
Both shows share 5 actors and started the same year.

And this poor cop is not having a good day on this episode:

Mandle · Sun 09/06/2019 02:50:02

Bonnie & Clyde?

Cassiebsg · Sun 09/06/2019 13:48:53

Now you not only you moved very far away, there are also no actors sharing the same show... and the show isn't about bad guys, even though it needs them to function.

There are snakes on this episode:

Seems like I need more screenshots.. guess it's time I find some faces if snakes don't help.

Are you sure about that?

I found Bonnie & Clyde by searching via actors that were in Top Of The Lake, and I thought the time period and fighting the police theme looked about right.

I think though it's an Australian show, given your previous hints so:

Wake In Fright?

Cassiebsg · Sun 09/06/2019 20:18:12

I meant that Bonnie&Clide had nothing to do with the show I posted... Not that it had nothing in common with Top of the lake.

And yes, you are right about location but not the show I'm after, yet. But at least now you have 4 actors in common... one is an extra that has actually been in this one episode and 18 more...

After a snake bite, our cops day is still going down the hill... but at least he's in hospital now... and some faces for you.

Is everyone else watching from the side lines?

I'm watching, but I have no idea what the programme is.

VampireWombat · Sun 09/06/2019 22:10:23

Riding in Cars with Snakes?
Yeah, I have no clue. Also just watching.

Cassiebsg · Mon 10/06/2019 00:10:34

Well, by now you should know the year the show started, where it was filmed and that it's a "cop show"...

And that the episode features snakes. Probably my favorite of the episodes too...

Edit: It's now Google/duckduckgo searchable, if you can just use write all the clues in a nice "makes sense sentence"...

Main character and a few more snakes...

Mandle · Mon 10/06/2019 15:58:46

I tried searching "TV show Australia Policeman bitten by snake" but there are so many real life cases of people bitten by snakes the every result was a news report... Including one poor woman who was bitten while on the toilet by a snake that had decided to curl up behind it...

Cassiebsg · Mon 10/06/2019 16:16:36

If you remove the bitten by snake, and add the year, you might get a hit

Might need to redo the way the wording flows too.

Maybe another face will help?

Mandle · Mon 10/06/2019 16:27:30

The year we are talking about is 2013, right?
