is there more than one show?
I just saw a commercial on the Sundance channel for The Returned coming in the fall. Characters are not the ones I watched on A&E. Is there more than one Returned?
shareThere's the original French version, Les revenants, released in English-speaking countries as The Returned, then there's the US remake, also called The Returned.
shareIs the Sundance channel one the European version? I got into the one on A&E and was wondering if it's coming back.
shareIt appears that Sundance is airing the French version. I have seen elsewhere that French tv is beginning season 2 of the show on 28 Sep.
I think the A&E version is coming back, but I haven't seen a date yet.
I hope say, it was very good.
shareSorry. From what I've discovered, the A&E version is canceled. I thought it was ok, but I did prefer the French version--more atmosphere, for one thing.
I'd recommend that you try it.
Every time I like a show it's cancelled. Loved Ghost Whisperer and Resurrection when they were on. How much of the other one did I miss? Idike to catch up on it, I've never watched anything on Sundance but now I will.
shareThe second season is about to begin, so you've only missed one season--eight episodes.
shareI checked our on demand and it's not there to watch. Thanks, I'll start season 2. Maybe it's similar to the A&E one and it will be easy to follow.

SundanceTV will air the first season (which is currently available to stream on Netflix) in its entirety Oct. 18 beginning at 6 a.m. ET, and the second season premieres Oct. 31 at 10 p.m. ET.
The A&E version and the original French version had major differences after episode 6, I would strongly recommend at least watching episodes 7 and 8 of season 1 before watching season 2. If you have the time though watch the entire first season. share
Thank you for the info. I hope it's just as good as the A&E version.
shareIt's better than the A&E version imo. Should try to watch the whole first season of the original if you can, it's on netflix I believe, if you have it. The remake wasn't terrible (until you hit the major changes) as far as set, script/plot, location/setting go...but the US version's acting was bleh, everyone felt so flat.
shareYesterday on Sundance I caught episode 6-8 and put on my dvr. Missed 1-5 I watched a little of it and the storyline is exactly the same.just annoying to read subtitles. I will be watching.
shareYes, Sundance aired the French version.
shareThanks. I just finished the A&E version on Netflix (1 season) then when I was checking out other shows I saw The Returned, Season 2, and that really threw me, since I knew the A&E version was cancelled after season 1. Now it's clear that the French version (the original) has 2 8 episode seasons, whereas the A&E is 1 10 episode season. I'm looking forward to watching the original French version. Very cool concept.
