All three excellent in their own way. Third started slowly, but now at boil.

@MN5 just finished. Got a 13 year old son …. Jeeze.
Episodes 1 and 3 were fantastic. Unbelievable acting.
2 was decent but 4 was a bit of a snooze fest.
I think it could be combined into a 2 hour movie with a few parts cut and a 20 minute take of the parents of the girl at some point.
Overall tho, an incredible series.

I think the whole "one shot" take thing whilst incredible and amazingly done is possibly a bit unnecessary ? LOADS of pressure on actors not to fuck up their lines ( I'd imagine they had some run throughs where someone messed up their lines half an hour in for example )
In saying that the school scene where the kids runs off and the cop chases him ( complete with running on a road etc ) must have taken so much time and effort to organise.

@MN5 The last episode took until the 14th take to get it right I think. The actors do say it allows them to inhabit the character more and is more like a stage production vs traditional scene by scene acting.
That's a fair call. Easy to forget that stage actors do it like this all the time.

@MN5 Totally agree. I actually think its held back the series on what it was capable of somewhat.
It didn't hinder episodes 1 or 3, but 2 or 4 could have been much better done. The drive to the hardware store in episode 4 just went on and on and on .....
Kind of like me on TSF ...

Your best post ever. Very relatable too

@taniwharugby Speaking of Stephen Graham, his latest is technically exceptional, the fact each episode is one take is just bonkers. The actors are all so good and the content very interesting, especially if you have kids. I enjoyed it but seems you either love it or hate it. Plot is trying to understand why a 13 year old boy murders a young girl.
Very interesting

Adolescence. Watched this over the last 2 nights,
Conflicted opinion on this. Brilliantly acted, edited and produced but to me was all over the place. Was it something exceptonal or a collection of superb technical set pieces let down by a lack of a cenral idea/focus?
In many ways started off with a bang annd ended up with a wimper. Technically brilliant but, overall, over-hyped.
Opening episode was wild and simply incredible. the best TV I've seen in years. Episode 2 was good showing what goes on at the schools and set the scene for the the next episode (Ep.3) where the motive came out started to be explored with some extraordinary acting and writingSadly, that abruptly came to an end and we segued to Ep 4 - expecting some explanation and insight. Sadly we didn't but instead we got dross - a collection of kitchen-sink drama cliches and some poor acting. Left me feeling a bit cheated.

Yep, in retrospect a fair call

Wasn't sure about this at first, but episode 2 was great fun and Inception level shit.

Bondsman
Kevin Bacon hunting demons after coming back from Hell. 3 eps in.
Besides the episodic nature of the demon slaying, the plot about his past is being revealed at a nice pace.
And it's Kevin fucking Bacon
That show does look pretty good in the shorts, might have to add it to the list.
I heard he wasn't feeling too well when he was making it but glad to hear he's now fully cured

Kevin Bacon is 66 .. so is this like Ghost Rider on a Segway?
