90 minutes

The final ep is actually 90 minutes, not 2 hours.

95 Minutes.

To be exact.

Terminal City - Vivid and memorable

This series premiered in Canada a few years ago. I screened it before interviewing Maria del Mar, who plays Katie, for Channel Guide Magazine. I still recall it so well. Thankfully, I can finally watch what I think is one of the best women's dramas I've ever seen - one with more than its share of hilarity within the heartbreak. Katie is an original, whether baring her breast to a film crew and proclaiming "I have cancer!" or baring her body to her husband and saying "Look at me," knowing full well that in a days he might not be seeing the same body at all.

I asked del Mar what she felt at that moment. "Complete vulnerability. Complete terror. Complete fear of rejection. I think all of us, simply as women, feel that."
