Pieces of Her
Started pretty compelling and then really lost it’s way and had an underwhelming finale. ( I caught the end after missing a couple of episodes )
It’s also pretty hard to take seriously a bunch of actors who I know to be very Australian trying to be Americans. Not to mention it didn’t help when the younger selves in flashbacks looked and sounded NOTHING like their older selves.
Quite crap. Would not recommend.

Really enjoyed it

@mikethesnow yeah I might go with that rather than the guy who missed episodes before the end and found the end lacking.

I actually thought the denouement was one of the better parts.

You barely speak English. That was meant for Mike. I tagged you as a courtesy.

Are you assuming
bendersorry, gender? -
@catogrande said in TV Serieseseses:
Yeah a lack of attention to detail and maybe cutting corners in comparison to earlier seasons. A bit too happy ever after ending too.
Having started Vikings: Valhalla, the difference is stark
-
Vikings was great at first but went downhill IMO. Jumped the shark with the battle for York with hiding in non existent sewers and the Saxon army having uniform armour from 200 years in the future. Add in a disjointed non-sensical storyline and I lost interest. Vikings Valhalla just carries on from there.

Iup to episode 5 now and really liking it but HOLY FUCK this is one of the most annoying and bizarre pieces of television I've ever seen. It's absurd, what the fuck were they thinking? Is it on purpose?
Edit: I do like that there's now a budget Christian Bale to go with budget Tom Hardy.

Just finished episode 4 and, like you, enjoying it. Not finding it bizarre, just a touch formulaic so far and a bit easy to guess what's coming next. Hopefully that changes in the later episodes.
Need to concentrate on the flashbacks and guess who the character is supposed to be as @MN5 points out, it can be hard to connect the younger characters to the older selves

How can you like something if it’s annoying and bizarre ?

Finished S2 of Upload, not as good as 1, seems to be trying to be a bit more serious in this season.
Andy Allo is hawt.
Robbie Amel looks so much like David Boreanaz.

How can you like something if it’s annoying and bizarre ?
Ask your missus

I'd agree with this assessment. I preferred the lighter S1. Got a bit woke and serious. Still worth it though.

Just read a review of Slow Horses (obviously a journo given an early viewing)
Review was very positive. The writer didn't come across as someone invested in the novels so this seems to indicate that as a standalone it works.
released Friday with two eps available.
