Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Bodkin Season 1
All seven episodes of Netflix's Bodkin Season 1 have dropped on the streamer, and we're already ready for Season 2. The series stars Will Forte (MacGruber), Siobhán Cullen (The Dry), and Robyn Cara (Trying) in a comedic thriller created by showrunner Jez Scharf. The show is actually a pretty dark comedy that takes place in a coastal town in Ireland where something sinister is being swept under the proverbial rug, and it gives its three stars a stage to shine on in a new light.
In what's being heralded as Netflix's Only Murders in the Building, this trio of sleuths set out to uncover the secrets of a small, idyllic Irish town. Charmed by the mystery of unsolved disappearances 25 years prior, and in awe of the beautiful Irish countryside, podcast team Gilbert (Forte) and Emmy (Cara) are an optimistic pair looking to dig into a cold case for their series. When they team up with Dove, a journalist looking to solve serious crimes, the very real, very dangerous happenings in Bodkin have them questioning everything, and it turns out the journey may see this ragtag team revealing truths of their own.
In this interview, Collider's Steve Weintraub asks the series' stars where they feel that journey led each of their characters throughout this first season, which has Forte speculating where a potential Season 2 could take us. We also dig into the fascination behind true crime, which has seen a surge in the last decade, that uncomfy bog sequence, and the bizarre lives of eels.
