Cracker

BBC America today showed reruns of "Cracker" featuring Robbie Coltrane (probably better known as Hagrid in the Harry Potter movies). This is one of the best TV dramas I've seen, funny, tragic, and oddly haunting. Even if you don't like the usual TV crime drama stuff, this one is worth a watch and a second watch. Coltrane handles his part beautifully and almost effortlessly and the writing (especially in the episodes shown today) is almost perfect.
