Please try for a series 3! V show. Lawrence really is a character so many people can relate to, and as a trivia nut myself I was hooked. Congratulations on making a piece of art loved by many. That is the most significant thing you can do in your life. Thank you for going to the effort of getting in touch.
Just finished watching series 1. Absolutely loved it. I was aware it was on rte at the time it was broadcast, but never sat down to it.
Well at least I saved it and had the pleasure of watching it today. Cheers, Robert! Delighted to hear that you liked it. Please, please bring back a season three! Why have you given up? There are so many of us out here pulling for you!
Poor Lawrence. I kept telling him he was making a big mistake in not telling Molly about losing his job. Anyway, they are bringing back Cold Feet, brought back Arrested Development, so just maybe? Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for a brilliant series. Thank you! So glad to hear that you liked it — and thank you for getting in touch.
Thanks for responding. At least there is some consolation in that Lawrence may be redeemed in my imagination based on your initial plan for three seasons. As an aside, my hubby shares some Lawrence traits himself.
Maybe in the future we will see another series you do that gets us just as hooked? Good luck! A little, at least. And it would have all come good for him in the end, I promise. Thanks again for saying you liked it — it means a lot. PS: any chance that a finale episode could be wrangled on one of the streaming platforms? I think that sort of thing has been maanged for a few other series before..
Hi, Damien. What a beautiful show! I loved Lawrence, and I hope he gets to do some more quiz nights. Thank you for giving us such a warm, loving, kind-hearted, dear program. Best wishes! I finished watching Trivia at 2am this morning and I was shocked and saddened to find that the series had ended.
This was a truly unique production. David Pearse as Lawrence was absolutely outstanding. I came across it on Netflix by accident. The success of The Detectorists produced by BBC indicates that there is a market for such unique entertainment. Shame on RTE! I agree. Both are relatively low-budget productions that rely on great writing and a great cast. At the beginning of the first episode of Trivia I was unsure if it would work. As with Detectorists, I continued to watch and I became hooked.
As I watch The Detectorists in future I will always be reminded of the brilliant series that, not for the first time, RTE let slip through its fingers. We do not need an endless litany of sex and violence in order to be entertained. An intelligent script that touches the minds and hearts of the viewer is all that is needed.
Best of luck in the future. Binge watched Trivia over the last 2 days on Acorn TV. Crushed when I went to click on Season 3 only to find there is no season 3.
Bewildered, Googled it and found your blog. What you achieved, the organic, painful growth of your characters, was engrossing. That aching moment when Molly urged Lawrence not to write the answer down, or the painful interaction between Lawrence and his unkind cubicle mates, were powerful, realistic and surprising.
I too would love to see your ending with these characters in some format. Well, I know you and the actors have moved on to new projects, but would dearly love to see these characters get a chance to finish their story. Please get them out of purgatory if at all possible, Molly never got to finish growing herself, and those parents, well they may be a lost cause, but if they all walk out of the mist like Brigadoon.
Hi, June. It sounds corny but it really does mean a lot. We are very disappointed at the short-sightedness of the powers that be. You should have had a chance to tie things up and bring everything to a satisfactory conclusion instead of having them dangle in an unfinished limbo. My compliments to your ensemble cast. Everyone was absolutely perfect. Hi Linda, thanks for getting in touch. Delighted that you enjoyed it. So unique…. I watched all of the episodes quickly and of course, was left wanting more.
So happy I got to see this series, but so disappointed it ended. So many poor, no talent shows here in the States! Thank you so very much for such a wonderfully entertaining and interesting show! RTE was so wrong! Thank you, Nancy. Always happy to hear that someone enjoyed it. Have to leave my 2 cents worth. Just finished episode 6 of season 2. Immediately googled to see if there were more. What a gem Trivia is. Anyway, thank you for making it.
So enjoyed watching it. Found it in here in Canada on acorntv. All the best to you in your other endeavors. I will be content to think that Laurence and Molly found their way back to each other and Adam somehow lives happily ever after. Have great day.
Exquisite dialogue.. Totally real, all believable, just brilliant. Find another company??? It was showing what genuine love could do to positively impact a personality closed in on itself…. RTE is terribly unimaginative and definitely closed in on itself.
Yeah, the idea was to put them in a horrible place at the end of S2 and then see where we could take them in S3. Spoiler alert, kinda. My wife and I have watched season 1 on Acorn. Since we found out there are only two seasons, we are treasuring season 2. We gave the show a try because it was filmed in Ireland, our favorite place in the world, and was in love with the characters, story, place at the end of the 1st episode. The final episode in season 1 left us smiling with a lump in our throats.
The show has such a great heart. Is it being promoted somewhere? Could just be just a coincidence …. It is being promoted now on Acorn. Surprised it was an older series. Hope you get your royalty check. Thanks for your reply. Just curious, how was Trivia received when it aired originally? Oh, thanks, Jim! It was well reviewed when it first went out but it never really developed a huge audience. Just watched both seasons on Acorn T. I am glad lots of people still watch it and comment here so you know your good work lives on!
Thanks so much for a few evenings of fun TV watching! I share your cry emoji, Karen. So glad you liked it, though! Thank you for taking the trouble to say so.
No series 3? So disappointing. Series 1 was very strong, and while series 2 got off to a slower start for me, it regained its footing and built more than enough momentum to launch a stellar series 3.
Adam and Lawrence, while beginning in vastly different places, are converging on the same trajectory — the need to build and sustain genuine intimacy. Sorry to miss seeing how the author would have let things play out. Thanks, Nancy. Was aiming for a happy ending, though! Sad that there was to be no season 3, but the two that you made are wonderful.
My wife and myself found ourselves totally absorbed with his extraordinary character. One of the best shows I have seen in a long time. I just finished season 2 on Acorn, and searched for info on season 3, only to find out it had been cancelled.
When you have a great product, why not keep it going? The British shows Gavin and Stacey, and The Office, were both hugely popular after their 3rd seasons, but were stopped. It blows my mind. Thanks, Chris. The broadcaster never really got the show or knew what to do with it.
I just binge-watched Trivia in the past 2 days. What a sweet, smart show. As someone above remarked, it is similar to Detectorists in its thoughtful approach and wonderfully realized characters. I watched the last episode without realizing it was THE last episode and was crushed. I thought there was at least one more episode. Thank you for writing such a wonderful show.
Hopefully its life on Acorn via Amazon Video for me bring it an even bigger audience. Thanks so much for getting in touch! We took a risk ending S2 on such a downer but the plan was to have it all come good in S3. Like everyone else, I just finished series 2 and was dismayed to find there were no more! Physically and somewhat personality wise , Lawrence reminded me of my little nephew as he might grow up to be. The last scene was so good.
Just finished watching the 2 seasons. So sorry no season 3, as well. The steps for doing this differ from browser to browser, so consult your browser menu and Help tools.
