I saw it when it was on AMC...
its a pretty good mystery +police procedural / conspiracy
its a moderately paced show with decent writing and good performances

Speaking of AMC ... did anyone else watch Low Winter Sun when it aired a number of years back? Really enjoyed this one. Believe it was only on for 1 season.


Plenty of recognizable talent in the cast.

Yes - apparently there will be a movie at some point. Don't recall any specific year / timeline for that. In recent years there was some talk about a spinoff series potentially in the works. Tough to say.

Overall the last season isn't as strong as prior seasons. You could definitely sense the smaller scale of it (due to covid changes and all) ... but we thought the series finale was solid. It had a good amount of tension and was entertaining.

Are you watching via streams online at the moment? As it aired in recent months from Feb to April on BBC One. If I remember correctly, Netflix will pick up the season in June for larger worldwide viewership.

Enjoy!



:cheers::thumbsup:



the way it ended i doubt it ..

shit seemed wrapped up to me ...

now maybe a spin-off ...yes...

Night Sky


Night Sky centers around Franklin and Irene York, a couple who years ago discovered a chamber buried in their backyard which inexplicably leads to a strange, deserted planet. They’ve carefully guarded their secret ever since, but when an enigmatic young man enters their lives, the Yorks’ quiet existence is quickly upended, and the mysterious chamber they thought they knew so well turns out to be much more than they could ever have imagined.

Binged this ...not bad ...:yes:

But these fuckers as usual trying to push tht all black people are gay shit ..

they made the young black chick thts his driver not only a drug addict but a lesbian drug addict .....

The lead police detective also a fag ...

n i think the dam judge was also gay ...:smh:

so basically all the people of color was gay ...

they changed up the lead too ..Mathew`s role is played by a Mexican ...well mixed ..looks like his pops was white n his mom Mexican...

Neve Campbell aged nicely for a cac ...still no ass but she looks good ... she`s 49 this yr ...fuck the time go ..

all in all solid series ...crazy ass reveals at the end ....

Judge was married to a man

The black cop...... it wasn't implied he was gay but maybe

I remember people getting pissed off after season 1 because they didnt get the revelation they wanted which didnt happen until season 2 but it was a twisty shocker. The last season was very dark and ,twisty and sad.

KIN on AMC+ is partially predictable but powerful with great performances from the entire cast. Some of the story threads remind me of one of the greatest Irish mob films of all time State of Grace

The Staircase on HBO/MAX even though i know the outcome of this true life story about the mysterious death of Kathleen Peterson it's still a great watch watching the family dynamic and how revelations about her husband came to light.

Candy on Hulu another interesting and involving series . Watching the pieces come together that lead to a brutal murder.Even with the curly wig and 80's get up Jessica Biel is still one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood

Been meaning to watch The Staircase. Glad you liked it. My mom said it is great too.

Candy - been seeing some reviews about it of late. Might need to check this one out too!

Any word from AMC back then as to why? Ratings not strong enough, or only ever meant for a limited run? They had a good timeslot if I remember correctly- Sunday nights, right?

IF I remember correctly it was ratings

but to me AMC especially at that point?

shod have been thinking quality legacy and awards and critical recognition.

Agreed. Usually they are quite good with the long-term play. Letting Breaking Bad build an audience. Knowing it would one day become iconic in Netflix syndication. Keeping The Walking Dead on the air well past its best before date and currently on season 338, etc.

low was not the issue, exception of Walking Dead, AMC was never about ratings
Low Winter wasn't getting the right demo

Mad Men never had high ratings

Avatar: Korra had highest ratings on Nick, but never in demo Nick wanted

My mom texted. She and her boyfriend really enjoyed Severance. They are enjoying The Tourist right now, as well as The Staircase.


Told her I would save for her Dark Winds, and the season 2 runs for Only Murders and Reservation Dogs in the months ahead. She was happy about that.

Bodyguard 2018


Bodyguard tells the fictional story of David Budd, a heroic but volatile war veteran now working as a Specialist Protection Officer for the Royalty and Specialist Protection Branch of London's Metropolitan Police Service. When he is assigned to protect the ambitious and powerful Home Secretary Julia Montague, whose politics stand for everything he despises, Budd finds himself torn between his duty and beliefs. Responsible for her safety, is he actually her biggest threat?

yeah i`m doing a deep dive n going back n watching all the shows i missed ...

short series shows right now tho ...i cant do the 20 plus ep shows ...shit jus too dam long

8-10 is just right ...:yes:



Nice. Yeah - the short & limited series are where it's at now. They leave you wanting more, and DON'T overstay their welcome like the "old days" of network sitcoms and dramas.

We are loving the 5 - 10 (sometimes 12) episode runs of series now.

We're actually able to watch stuff start to finish.



:cheers:

That opening 15 - 20 mins of Bodyguard is great, right?


With a limited episode run ... that was the perfect way to hook the viewer right off the bat. Set the mood and tone immediately.

Better Call Saul Presents Slippin Jimmy

Before Saul Goodman, a criminal lawyer, before Jimmy McGill, a lawyer anyone can trust, there was: Slippin’ Jimmy; he’s a sly young slickster trying to make it through Catholic school without landing himself and his best pal Marco in detention again.
