Sky Arts - In Treatment

Sky Arts premieres the first of 43 episodes of In Treatment, the award-winning half-hour drama series starring Gabriel Byrne. Set within the intimate confines of individual psychotherapy sessions with five sets of patients, the series centres around Paul (Byrne), a therapist who exhibits an insightful, confident demeanour when treating his patients, but displays a crippling insecurity while counselled by his own therapist, Gina (Dianne Wiest).

I absolutely cannot wait to see this show. The reviews in American have been incredible and it looks so unique and fresh. Not to mention that fantastic cast.

Thank you Sky Arts!

Can’t wait for this to start, well done SKY for coughing up the cash, BBC will eat their heart out once this takes off.

what is the song played during the sky arts television advertisment for “in treatment” ?

Sari from Sky Arts

Fri 2 October 2009, 16:38

The music used in the In Treatment advert is Philip Glass’ The Newcastle March from Satyagraha: Opera in Three Acts.

Ive already seen season 1 and it is absolutely amazing. whoever has sky arts hd is lucky because it is stunning.

Seen the first 2 episodes, as a therapist myself, it hits home. Fantastic writing and acting. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds although I am already starting to form ideas...lol

Even though I have seen every episode of IT seasons one and two at least twice, I still upgraded to get Sky Arts and will be tuning in to watch all over again this evening. There is such a lot TO this programme - the writing, the acting, the characters - that I don’t think it’ll never get boring. Well done Sky for snapping this up after the Edinburgh Film Festival.

Fantastic show. By the way, it’s never mentioned in the writing credits, but this show was originally seen in Israel in Hebrew, and later adapted for the U.S. Gabriel Byrne’s role was played by Assi Dayan. It was very successful in Israel, too.

Absolutely fantastic series!!!!!!!! Engaging and intense, and so realistic

Simon

Fri 16 October 2009, 08:16

Actually, contrary to Doreen’s comment, the original Israeli show is credited at the end of every single episode. It’s a masterful show, really amazing!

Thank you Sari, I have been looking for the answer to that question (re the music) for weeks and weeks! Even your website didn’t have it for an AGE! At last.

What happened to Sky Arts last night? Friday 16th October? I live in the south of England and was looking forward to the programme and a History of Lesbian and Gay Cinema which followed. The Sky Arts programme vanished from the schedules. Sky Art 1 & 2 & HD were there but not Sky Arts. Why not???

Serena

Mon 19 October 2009, 16:46

As a qualified counsellor, the programme is extremely clever and close to real therapy, its great it includes supervisor sessions too!!!

Derek

Wed 21 October 2009, 15:40

It’s a hit!!

In Treatment’s weekday showings and Sunday repeats take nine out of ten of the BARB top ten for Sky Arts 1 in its first week.

Glad that lots are enjoying this excellent programme.

DIANE

Fri 23 October 2009, 12:25

How refreshing something totally different on tv. The length of each episode ideal enough to keep you hooked!

Gail

Sat 24 October 2009, 16:11

I commend Sky Arts for showing In Treatment and urge them to stay with it through the newly ordered HBO third season. It’s great programming - thank you to Sky Arts!

Gail

Sat 24 October 2009, 16:23

Typo alert to Sky Arts - Blair Underwood of “In Treatment” started on the “Cosby Show” (as in Bill Cosby), NOT the “Crosby Show.” <g>

Lena

Wed 28 October 2009, 04:55

Love this show so much, hooked so quickly I ordered season 1&2;and have watched 78 episodes over 1 week. Am just sad that I have to wait a year until season 3 hits the air
Amazing show.

Rain

Mon 2 November 2009, 18:00

I have only just started watching In Treatment, and unfortunately ive started on week 4!
Can some one tell me where online i can catch up from the beginnng please?

Chris

Mon 2 November 2009, 23:25

I dont miss it! the best show on tv 2009! wish there were more like it on tv!
cant wait for the boxset to come out!

Steve

Wed 4 November 2009, 16:49

Only got Sky HD a couple of months ago and thank god as this is a superb series to watch. Just wonder how many people are missing out by not being regular viewers of Sky Arts.

Alex Nairn

Fri 6 November 2009, 23:09

Whoever it is in Sky Arts it is that found this programme and struck the deal should be on a BIG bonus this year. It is the most compelling, entertaining, concerning and frustrating programme on TV at the moment. And no commercial break - what a treat!

Amanda Blanch

Sun 15 November 2009, 02:40

quite frankly, the best thing on tv for ages, so compelling, so real and so well acted. the quote used to advertise it ‘ as a addictive as a morphine drip’ is spot on. can’t wait for the next day to arrive, weekends are now too long.

Ros

Sun 15 November 2009, 13:43

I love this series and I’m really hoping that you will also put series 2 on. Each time the programme ends I can’t wait for the next one and I’m really enjoying the development of each character and how their stories are revealed bit by bit. I love Fridays session as we get to see the human side of Paul.

otis

Sun 15 November 2009, 19:50

i have to say that i record these sessions so that i can watch one after the other, it makes my therapy sessions easier to deal with thank you Sky Arts.

Mirja

Tue 17 November 2009, 18:09

This is one of the best programmes I’ve ever seen. Intelligent, engaging, thought provoking, compelling, touching. I hope series 2 will air on SKY Arts soon as I can’t wait to meet Paul’s new patients!

Derek

Thu 19 November 2009, 11:26

When you show season two, can you keep the same timeslot? In the US they showed three back to back on Sunday and two on Monday.

Much prefer the nightly schedule.

sara

Fri 20 November 2009, 18:40

when does the season 2 dvd come out? I’d really like to buy it for someone for xmas.

Marie

Fri 20 November 2009, 20:12

Can anyone find a place to buy the ‘wave/tide machine’ that is in the show?

Fiona

Mon 23 November 2009, 11:34

This is the most engaging show, real & fresh. Well done Sky Arts 1 for seeing what a gem this is. Paul Weston is a joy & Gabriel Byrne plays this part with an authentic & light touch. This is the best thing on TV in a long time, I am glued!

Stella

Tue 24 November 2009, 23:36

When i was told about this programme first it sounded like pure crap but im hooked on it now. Well done sky arts, this is a keeper.

Gail

Wed 25 November 2009, 12:19

Only 6 more episodes this season...is the next season going to be presented by Sky Arts, too? Please do, this show is the best thing on television. One complaint to Sky - when sending the reminder alerts, please do NOT give preview info!

Sheila

Fri 27 November 2009, 14:40

Great show, and so realistic. I particularly like the sessions with Gina at the end of the week, such a great round up and her style being different to Paul’s. Please show the next series on Sky Arts - it would be such a shame not to, given that I am hooked.

Liz

Fri 27 November 2009, 15:59

Agree with Sheila, I’m totally addicted. PLEASE show series 2!!! The absolute best thing on TV for ages.

Sophie

Sat 28 November 2009, 16:03

When will Sky Arts be showing Series 2?

Rayjake

Sun 29 November 2009, 17:46

Wonderful subtle deep and thought provoking show,,,Who would have thought that the format would work? Thank You

Derek

Tue 1 December 2009, 21:40

Just watched Sophie’s last episode. Stunning TV. The best episode of my favourite patient.

Paul

Tue 1 December 2009, 21:54

When are you showing season 2!!!

I’ve loved this series. Seems so honest and in no way grandstanding like many other shows out there. Can’t wait for more.

George Hamilton

Wed 2 December 2009, 13:35

How can we know when the second series is being broadcast? Sky+ has no series link after tonight and there is nothing on the website. Help Sky Arts, pse!

Cass

Wed 2 December 2009, 19:20

Hubby and I absolutely love ‘In Treatment’, it is an amazing programme which has kept us on the edge of our seats.

We are looking forward to the final episode tonight but we are also hoping that Sky Arts will show series 2 soon as I know we are going to miss our 10pm slot of intrigue and insight.

Ali

Wed 2 December 2009, 20:28

Fantastic show cant wait to see the other seasons..

trevor

Wed 2 December 2009, 23:54

this was the best series i have watched in years--bring on series 2

Nick

Thu 3 December 2009, 11:00

In Treatment has been a fantastic drama with some amazing acting. I’m glad Sky Arts picked this show up. I particularly enjoyed Sophie’s sessions on wednesday nights and cannot wait to see the next season.

I’m just a little sad that shows like this go unnoticed by a wider audience. I only knew about this show as I saw it advertised on Sky 1 and caught the first episode just in time. I hope the second season starts soon!

Claire

Thu 3 December 2009, 13:15

This is undoubtedly the best thing to grace our televisions in a long time. Gabriel Byrne as shown us why is one of the greatest actors; not only in his speech but in his silence, you feel everything. The ‘patients’ are also incredible, In Treatment has shown the true skills behind these established and new actors. Who else felt there heart pounding in there chest when Paul was with Laura, the want, the agony of all the emotion. I wait with anticipation for Season 2.

Ali Hugs

Thu 3 December 2009, 13:54

I’m mourning :o( Where has the highlight of my week day evenings gone? Beautifully portrayed. Beautifully scripted. Simply superby. Bring on series 2…

Julie

Thu 3 December 2009, 18:22

Does anyone know when series 2 is due to start here? I loved this show too and don’t want to miss any of it.

Alex

Thu 3 December 2009, 20:15

Loved season 1 - I hope sky will be showing season 2 (and 3 etc.) Please let us know when you will be showing it. Thanks.

Maire

Thu 3 December 2009, 21:04

Agree with all of the above. Only one drawback- very few people have seen it so I’ve no one to gossip to about it! What about a repeat on Sky 1?

Phil and Anne Barrett

Fri 4 December 2009, 16:02

This is one of the best productions on TV… I’ve read online that it had ‘mediocre’ success in the ratings… but that’s only because no-one (I know) has seen it! Trust me - this is a slow burner - but it will be a massive, massive hit for a long time to come.
Make sure you bring back the next series and PLEASE let us know when!

Andy

Fri 4 December 2009, 16:06

Like the others above, I’ve been glued to this series which is totally enthralling. Its a lesson in high-quality drama making. I really hope Sky Arts continue to show future series.

Marc

Sun 6 December 2009, 06:50

This was, without doubt, the best television series I have seen for many, many years. It was, unfortunately, only ever going to attract a smallish audience whilst tucked away on Sky Arts, but I hope this doesn’t deter Sky from showing series 2 and 3. Come on Sky - let’s have series 2 screened early in the new year! PLEASE!

Paul

Sun 6 December 2009, 12:24

Come on Sky, answer the question… WHEN DO WE GET SEASON 2???

Best TV drama since The Wire. Fact.

Rob

Tue 8 December 2009, 15:23

I can’t recommend this intelligent drama highly enough. Superior writing and superb playing, loaded with subtle nuances alongside the bigger ‘moments’. Such a rare treat, and a huge thanks to Sky Arts for airing it, without commercials - fantastic! My wife and I have been hooked on this series, so now that it’s finished we’re at a loose end. Please show season two soon, and of course series 3 etc.

Gina

Tue 8 December 2009, 16:48

Ok seriously would someone please answer from Sky re Season 2? Im gasping over here !!!

val

Tue 8 December 2009, 20:37

The most compelling TV I have seen in years. I am having withdrawal symptoms so keen to know when we might expect series 2....

Amrit

Thu 10 December 2009, 14:44

I loved the show; excellent script and cast. It’s helped with my psychotherapy training in many useful ways. Bring on Season 2 (and 3 eventually) very VERY soon!

zane Hayward

Mon 14 December 2009, 20:42

please inform start date series 2 thanks Zane

Barbara

Fri 18 December 2009, 16:05

Best drama for years (even better than the Wire for me). Great acting, brilliant script, loved everything - looking forward to Series 2 and Sky Arts need to to dome PR work to get articles in press about it and get it seen.
Also does anyone know which album is playing in Laura’s house in the final episode?

colin

Wed 23 December 2009, 14:08

Need to know when series 2 is going to be shown, so I can persuade someone to watch and share this wonderful and compelling drama. Can series 1 be repeated?

Dawn

Mon 28 December 2009, 16:33

Loved the first season love the simplicity of the program ,can’t wait for the second season to start will you be showing it and if so when will it be?

Ruby

Tue 5 January 2010, 15:32

I LOVE THIS SHOW!
I don’t usually watch television, but this show is an absolute PLEASURE to watch. I’m hooked!
When does the second series start? Could you repeat the first series in the meanwhile. I’ve told so many people about it and they’re dying to see it too.

Gina

Mon 11 January 2010, 14:24

Seriously hurry up and tell us when season 2 is scheduled to start?

Evelyn

Fri 15 January 2010, 18:54

Had a very constructive and informative conversation with a Sky customer service man tonight who was very helpful. Apparently they have the rights to the next season but have no dates scheduled. He said season 1 was being repeated. I think he said 25th Jan. Maybe they need to wait till it has finished showing in US before they show here.

Phil Challoner

Sun 17 January 2010, 20:16

C’mon Sky, thisnis getting boring ... when is series 2?!

Shaun H

Mon 15 February 2010, 21:09

This is a complete joke, I agree with Sigmund. Have you got the rights to season 2 or has sky 1 put a better offer in. Answer the burning question “WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO SHOW SEASON 2?”

Sari from Sky Arts

Tue 16 February 2010, 10:23

Thanks for all your comments! We haven’t got confirmation yet on the second series of In Treatment, but we’re working very hard to bring it to you as soon as possible. Keep your eyes peeled on our Twitter feed and you’ll be the first to know once we’ve secured the rights.

James

Tue 6 April 2010, 20:12

Just finished watching the first season and it was spectacular. SKY can afford it I’m sure, it’s just a drop in the ocean compared to ‘The Pacific.’

Gina

Fri 16 April 2010, 08:02

Oh hurry up - Spain and Germany are finishing their Season 2! Why is it taking so long in the UK to secure this ecxellent show?

Henry

Mike

Sat 1 May 2010, 14:30

Well I made an enquiry to Sky, and I got this response, which is disappointing…

Thank you for your email regarding the broadcasting of “In Treatment”.

Currently there are no plans for it to be broadcast however it can be downloaded from iTunes.

Gina

Fri 7 May 2010, 14:29

Sorry Mike was the answer in response to Season 2 or airing of season 1 again? i Tunes is allowing season 1 for download but not 2 as US only

Mike

Thu 13 May 2010, 14:17

Gina

My query was specifically about Season 2. Let’s hope that the respondee is incorrect! It’s disappointing that Sky aren’t making a public statement about it.

Leah

Sat 15 May 2010, 20:36

I agree with you season one was amazing !!!!!!!!! I hope they will show season 2 and soon , It is brilliant !!!!!!! Sophie was amazing and Amy and Paul !!!!!!!

Melanie

Thu 3 June 2010, 12:59

Desperate to see Season 2 - has anyone seen on Sky Arts Twitter feed whether they have the rights are going to show it? I saw earlier they said to keep an eye on Twitter for info but I can’t get onto it myself.

Richard

Fri 4 June 2010, 12:14

Same question about Season 2. Why are Sky Arts not responding.

Laura

Fri 11 June 2010, 10:08

Come on Sky Arts, update us on if your showing Season 2.

Susan

Carleen

Tue 22 June 2010, 19:47

Can someone just give us an answer already???? Its really not that difficult. Either its happening or it isn’t. WE CAN’T WAIT!!!!

Tina

Sun 27 June 2010, 11:30

I adored series 1 too. and I hate waiting for the next series of anything. Depending on your Internet type, try googling Sidereel In Treatment Episodes. I watched all of series 2, back-to-back, free of charge. Don’t worry, I’m not going to spoil the plot for anyone. Enjoy.x

LAURA R

Tue 29 June 2010, 13:30

Please SKY ARTS can you give us some info on whether series 2 of In Treatment will be shown?
