    Just spotted this in the latest Sky email. Starts in September, no trailer available yet as far as I can see. 4 part mini-series with an interesting premise.

    IMDB Link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3950230/
    Sky Link: http://www.sky.com/tv/show/the-fixer (starts Friday Sept 4th)
    Suspicious of the "official answers" to an oil rig disaster, Ellie Molaro (Kathleen Robertson), investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board, spearheads a private investigation with a secret tipster named Carter (Eric Dane). Carter claims that a conspiracy of "Fixers" are behind the worst disasters in the country, all rigged to manipulate the stock market, and reap billions for a select few. Now, their largest operation in decades is an impending, catastrophic event targeting Washington, D.C. and the only way they can succeed is if Ellie and Carter are among the casualties.

    Sounds a bit Hostages like. I'll give it a chance but I'm just not sure about these kind of shows.

    Kathleen Robertson is having a nice run of it at the moment Murder in the First, Bates Motel and now this.

    She was also in Boss, one of the BH 90210 cast who fares well now


    Did this air yet in the US?

    Don't think so. It's going to air first in Canada, no date set (I had a good look last night)

    Starts on Friday. Still no trailer as far as I can see (which is really odd).

    I've seen trailers for it on Fox. It looks very promising. I think there's only 4 episodes in it.

    Are expectations pretty low with this? I've not seen much about it only that RTE's Ten page today linked to a BTS video from last October.

    I watched the first two episodes and found it a bit disappointing to be honest and I really like Kathleen Robertson & Eric Dane.

    The story is an intriguing one but sadly it's not being told well for me.

    I'll stick with as it's only four episodes.
