What's "The Night of" about?

The Colonel recommended The People Vs OJ Simpson on here. Binged on that and thought it was great.

Hoping the 3rd True Detective gets close to season one.
Stranger Things is superb; the script, actors, characters, genre, music, shots - honestly didn't expect it to be that good. A proper nostalgic trip if you grew up in the 80s. The child actors are brilliant for what it's worth and you don't get that cheesy representation you so often see in Hollywood.

'The Night Of' is about a Pakistani guy who picks up a girl on his way to a college party, gets sidetracked and goes back to hers. Bit of drugs and drink, wakes up in the kitchen around 2am. Goes back to the bedroom and finds the girl brutally stabbed to death - the whole series is based around him (& his wayward lawyer) trying to determine his innocence and what actually happened during that night. Season finale is on this sunday, there are only 7 episodes so far and the pilot is 90 mins I seem to remember. Again this is a really good watch, acting is pretty superb in this one.
