In honour of Durham County’s season two premiere tonight, here’s a link to my November interview with the actress:

• Michelle Forbes Delves Into The Darkness Of Durham County
  Forbes found herself “riveted” by the first season of the series. “I was really seduced by the darkness of it, by the truth of it. Laurie Finstad (Knizhnik), our writer, has this extraordinary ability to hold up this frail, human dark side of ourselves and confront it. That was what was so compelling to me and made me jump at the chance to be a part of it.” Read more.

From Andrew Ryan of the Globe and Mail:

• Something wickedly good comes from these suburbs
  “The great Canadian suburb is revisited in tiny little shadows and creepy little thoughts with the return of Durham County (tonight, Movie Central at 8 p.m., and The Movie Network at 9 p.m.). Life in the big city has never looked safer.” Read more.

From Rob Salem of the Toronto Star:

• Forbes’ list is filled with variety
  “If an actor can be judged by their choice of roles – keeping in mind that choice isn’t always an option – then Michelle Forbes was bound to be a fascinating, formidable and fearless woman.” Read more.

From Bill Harris of Sun Media:

• Laurence Leboeuf’s career takes off
  “Tonight on The Movie Network and Movie Central, Leboeuf will continue her role as Sadie Sweeney in the second-season debut of the dark and acclaimed Canadian drama Durham County.” Read more.
