Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a small audience and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for crime-drama fans. If you loved Power Book IV: Force, start here.
The mood
Dark and gritty.
The pace
One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, episodes of about 45 minutes, about 5 hours in all.
What might put you off
It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

Based on Eça de Queiroz's 1875 novel, the plot takes place in Leiria, Portugal, at the end of the 1860s, and follows the story of the forbidden passion between Amaro, a young priest, and Amélia, "the most beautiful girl in Leiria". Tense, emotional and rooted in personality conflicts, the series takes a critical look at society and the church in Portugal, in Leiria in the 19th century.
