The event series run of Fox's "Gracepoint" ended on Thursday (December 11) night and if you don't wanna know whodunnit, you'd better stop reading... now. Ok, really, I'm about to talk about the finale and its aftermath before segueing into my post-mortem chat with co-showrunner Dan Futterman... So you've been warned. Oh and I guess the conversation and article spoil "Broadchurch" as well. It's a somewhat specific focus. Apologies... So Ellie's husband Joe did it! Or not.
