Back to blood and blame: PBS premieres Season 2 of 'Guilt'
Ian Pirie, Mark Bonnar and Emun Elliott in "Guilt"
From Canada to the United States to the U.K., there is no denying that TV fans love a good bit of crime. Whether it comes in the form of a true crime documentary, a laugh-out-loud heist comedy or, as is the case with the Scottish series "Guilt," a darkly comedic thriller, nothing gets the blood flowing like murder on the small screen.

Q: The final episode of "Project Blue Book" shows them on a submarine in the North Atlantic, investigating a UFO sighting. Is this a factual story based on the real Project Blue Book or fiction for the show?
As you point out, History Channel's "Project Blue Book" was based on a real project of the same name run by the U.S. Air Force to investigate UFO sightings (back when they were still called UFOs and not Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, or UAPs, as the military currently prefers).

Q: Was Sandra Bullock in "Working Girl"? I don't remember seeing her in it, but I read somewhere that she was.
Sandra Bullock ("Gravity," 2013) was, in fact, the star of "Working Girl" -- just not the one you're thinking of.
When most people think of "Working Girl," they think of the 1988 big-screen smash starring Melanie Griffith ("The Bonfire of the Vanities," 1990) as an office worker struggling to succeed in the male-dominated business world, not the TV spinoff that aired two years later, with Bullock taking over Griffith's character.
