Shame they can’t do a series a year like they did with Vera. Looks to be another 2+ year gap

[u/Naive-Inside-2904]

I love this show! The second season got a little lost in the weeds tbh - they were a bit overly ambitious with that mystery.

But I love our little spiky Karen and her frowny face, perfectly depicted in the post pic haha!

[u/PontiacBandit25]

Lfg!! Loved the first two seasons and the format of past vs present. Hopefully won’t be too long of a wait

[u/TheFortyFourthSunset]

I’m really looking forward to this. Loved the first two series.

[u/ProfessorXXXavier]

Looks like it will be a new show runner.

Creator Emer Kenny, who also plays Karen’s best friend, is not returning. But she’s giving it her blessing!

The new screenwriter will be adapting the third novel into 6x1hr series! Filming starts next yr so guess we won't see it until end of next yr at the earliest 🫤

Limit to just three episodes

[u/TA_totellornottotell]

Yay!

I have stopped reading the books because I want to be surprised for the next series.

[u/Charming-Basket-903 → u/TA_totellornottotell]

I’ve read them all, can confirm they are all excellent.

[u/TA_totellornottotell → u/Charming-Basket-903]

Thanks, and good to know. The last one I read was The Skeleton Road and it was fabulous. It is #3 in the series and they seem to be going in order, so likely this will be next.

[u/AidyGaGa25]

Of?

[u/ehsteve23 → u/AidyGaGa25]

Karen Pirie is the name of the show, yes i was also confused because ive never heard of it

[u/Emergency-Douche]

Series 3 of fucking what?

[u/MountainMuffin1980 → u/Emergency-Douche]

The Karen Pirie show of course!

Edit: hah I was just being silly, as I didn't know, but the show, not this actress, is called Karen Pirie. So to be fair, OP did name the show 😂

[u/Emergency-Douche → u/MountainMuffin1980]

Oh fuck. Lol. Alright I understand now. Fucking hell. I'm the guy who needs the yellow paint in videogames.

[u/MountainMuffin1980 → u/Emergency-Douche]

Nono me too. I didn't know that what the show was called 😂

[u/cjinct → u/Emergency-Douche]

Karen Pirie - it's right in the title

[u/Logical-Macaron6607]

Loved the first. Not seen the second. Thanks for reminder

[u/HDonkeyBoy]

It did get a bit too complicated but overall I liked it

[u/Tight-Principle-743]

I liked it this, it fit well into that slot of Sunday evening drama.

[u/LectricVersion]

One of the best crime dramas going right now. Exciting!

[u/Acrobatic-Wave-9520]

Can’t wait !!!!

[u/fitzysbuna]
