calzephyrI thought Mr. Mercedes was going to be a solid crime thriller about a retired cop and his one unsolved case, but wow, it was so much more!
There are three seasons available on Netflix, and, TBH, after reading a synopsis of S2, I'm just going to stop and enjoy S1. S2 frankly sounds like a turd. I understand audiences often want more of the same, but sometimes a story is just fine stopping at a certain point and I don't want to feel let down.
I didn't know until about halfway through that it was based on a Stephen King work, and then some of the stuff made sense. It's a very detailed show, and I enjoyed the suspense, callbacks, and chills!
Fair warning though--there's some gross sexual abuse, and things get a little squishy in parts.
