Oh bring back the days of the team. Ezra, Avi, Lena & Ray… they were brilliant together. I miss those days. Ray has turned into such a bloody twat, even I want to slap him.
Nope that’s it, can’t do it any more… I hung on in there through the whole Jodie Whitaker debacle hoping the series would be better. The bar was so low after the previous couple of seasons but somehow it slipped under.
Sadly, I guess my DW days are done.
The end of that episode made me tearful, can’t believe I’m saying that !
Bob fucking Segler - :microphone: wow best scene ever!
Best scene ever - (Walk this way dance) loved it!
This show had such potential but this season it’s lost it and this episode was so bad I kept dropping off to sleep. :zzz:
I really hope it gets better.
I think their ultimate mission was to bore me to death. Acting poor - writing poor - storylines poor. Just bad TV all round.
‘Genre’ - Action, Adventure, Drama, Comedy.
There was none of the above. The only laughable thing about this would be if they commissioned a 2nd series.
Guess that’s what happens when you write produce and make yourself a lead character.
Only Sly Stallone can get away with that!
One episode in.. bored out of my mind, but I have a 3 episode rule so will update soon.
Such an excellent show I’ve just binged the box set for the 2nd time and it still gets a 10/10 rating. I haven’t let the last season affect my overall rating in this particular series because I feel that although not great they actually did the best they could with what they had.
It was never going to measure up without Kevin Spacey so I can’t fault the writers at all.
Anyway like I said 10/10 twice!!
Oh my heart just broke… RIP Arman, RIP Adan Canto.
Tiffany Wallace - If her character is representative of even a fraction of law abiding torment I think I have lost faith. . She should have lost her job or at the very least been severely disciplined for her total insubordination, defiance, lack of respect for the partner and team and complete disregard for the safety of the public around her. She is agent on a mission of revenge and not justice.
If the had an FBI advisor and set and this was the advice they were given that this behaviour is overlooked I’m really disappointed.
I originally rated this series as one of my rare 10/10 but after rewatching this series with my son I have decided to drop my rating to 8/10 and the reason for this is purely the last season. I don’t know what I was thinking originally I really don’t. This season could have been brilliant but now I see it lacked lustre and intrigue, it wrote characters off poorly and without just reasoning and most of all it felt lazy.
I was so excited to get my son to watch this.. I kept saying just wait until it all comes together, but it didn’t. I actually thought maybe e we missed a season without realising but we hadn’t.
The plot in ALT could been made so much more of and Juliana’s storyline just faded into the background. In fact her scenes were so insignificant she may as well have not been there. Don’t get me started on Joe Blake.. what a waste of a good character. So there we go…
out of 500 tv shows only 6 made it into my 10/10 and now there’s only 5 shows.
In case you were wondering what I consider perfection they are:
House of cards (last season not counted)
Breaking Bad
Vikings
Hannibal
Life on Mars
Huge respect to the servicemen and women of the 100th and to all the men and women who fought for our freedom during WW2. You will be remembered. Thank you
Just hope I stop crying long enough to watch the next episode.
“No reports” :sob:
Adrenalin fuelled, emotional and a hard hitting episode.
Most of these servicemen were mere boys, not much older than my own sons. It’s heartbreaking to be reminded of that.
I think the first four seasons were superbly written, beautiful, yet psychotically sick. However I do feel that in some way the last season let itself down. I’m not quite sure what I was expecting but it didn’t meet whatever was my expectation. Many threads of storylines were glossed over to reach what I felt was a speedy conclusion. This is nowhere near the scale of… let’s say Hannibal, which I rated 10/10 but I do feel this show its worthy of a 7/10 which is still a high rating for me. Not many get past the 6/10 for me. They do have to be exceptional.
Regrettably, I have had to drop my overall rating of this show from 8/10 to a 6/10
The first series fantastic. A real edge of your seat thriller but the 2nd series - wow it’s really let the show down. Every aspect of it was simply boring. What a shame!
Bring back LINE OF DUTY :pray_tone1:
I’ve really lost interest in this. It’s slow dull and uninteresting. 3/10
Considering mid series this was slow it picked up the pace and the Finale was amazing.
It’s rare these days to have an unpredictable season finale but this show nailed it. Really impressed…
Just think little Tommy and Ghost would be around the age of 10 about now… won’t be long until Kanan meets them and takes them under his wing… ooo la la
Total idiots, I’d fire the lot of them and start again!
This season has been slow but it finally picked up in this episode.. typical as next episode is finale.
To be honest I don’t see how they can get another season out of it but we shall see.
A poor man’s black mirror
Just as good as I remember. Brilliant start… brilliant scripts, brilliant cast, intriguing storylines all heading in directions unknown.
For a spy series it truly does hit the ball out the park! Love it!
I do however have this persistent urge to drag Lamb in to a shower, wash and cut his hair then bleach his bloody shirt and raincoat, but then Lamb wouldn’t be Lamb… does drive me incredibly insane though!
Skipping season 4 and heading for season 5 - it can’t be worse surely ?
Finally it’s over… The gang are far far away from their biggest threat.. Madison & Alicia.
They may actually survive now. Who knows, all I hope is that one day the writes don’t bring this back. There is nothing worth salvaging. FTWD may you RIP.
The biggest threat to human kind isn’t the walking dead, it’s Madison and the memory of Alicia! FFS that woman needs to be put out of her misery and mine!
If you miss peaky blinders this helps. It’s been in my watchlist for a couple of years never thought I’d end up watching it but with the lack of anything else I decided to give it a go. Glad I did. Gripped from episode one. Tom hardy was amazing and Stephen Graham well… brilliant as always. It’s just 8 episodes so if you are umming give it a go. A new season due out next year 2024 apparently so fingers crosssed.
Highly recommend.
One of my rare 10:10 ratings.
Let me assure you, you do not need to be a Rocky or Rambo fan to see this doc… or even a Sly fan for that matter.
Whats fascinating, is the interesting emotional and inspiring way Sly came across. No insta filter no rags to riches fairytale, just the finest, most honest, self deprecating, fascinating, INTERESTING biographical documentaries I have ever seen. Cut above the rest.
I do agree that with a career spanning 6 decades there could have been enough material for a series focusing on each decade but having said that, if you just want learn a bit of history about a legend this is as good a place as any to start.
You will be transfixed for the entire 90 minutes!
WATCH IT :heart:
Stephen Graham would make a fantastic Ebenezer Scrooge!
OMFG BILLIONS at its very very best! Amazing episode…. The defeat is the play! Love it so much. Superb writing! It’s what billions does best!
Do not waste a moment of your life on Themis series.
It doesn’t leave you satisfied it doesn’t leave with questions answered or answered for that matter. It certainly doesn’t leave you wanting more. I feel so let down in this Apple production after the likes of Blackbird and slow horses this makes you want to give up on Apple TV for good.
