I can't see how they could have been sent to kill him. Not sure how they could call his taxi? It seemed more to me that they were 2 random scumbags who killed people and robbed them at that beach. Ray had it figured out pretty early and just went with it knowing he could easily kill them. I think the point was that he could never actually escape who he was.
Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?
- Thread starter Red Pavan
- Start date
That was exactly my take. I've watched the finale 3 x times now and I still think it is fecking brillant.
So good.
Also want to point out how great an actress Britney is. It's really rare that you get a child in a TV show that isn't a really annoying character but her and Ray's interactions were hilarious at times.
Agreed. The bit with his father in the care home in the last episode was perfect.
Yeah, I kept thinking that throughout the series. Outstanding.
Fantastic show.
3 episodes into ZeroZeroZero. It's good but not quite meeting my expectations so far. The Mogwai score is a highlight.
Yeah also thanks for the recommendation @Wibble
Just finished watched season 3 now.
Honestly, it's up there with my all time 2 favorites.
Just sad it was over so quickly but I think that is also one of the main reasons why it's so good.
Would Totally recommend Mr In Between. 9/10. I'd say 10/10 if they gave us 1 more season

I've just started watching House for first time.
Enjoy the journey. Was a pleasant one over the years. Can get monotonous at times, but still a brilliant show.
That was a properly great show.
Right until it wasn’t.
I can’t remember the turning point and you should watch it all anyway, it really was excellent for a good long time.
Been dipping in and out watching Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown the past year.
Pure quality.
Pure quality.
What is this on? Would love to watch more Bourdain.
Watched the finale last night, it was so good I kept rewinding and rewatching the last 10 minutes. What an amazing character Ray is.

I've watched from the ambush through to the end 3 times and it still seems perfect.
Best antihero since Tony Soprano I reckon. I can't think of another character I can go from sympathising with and liking so much to utterly disdain in the space of one scene in recent memory, yet despite all his brutal activities, rooting for him throughout. Even Walter White just became a total dick by the end. With Ray you felt like he had never known anything but violence in his life and couldn't escape it. Summed up perfectly by the final scene.
Really annoys me that nowhere in the UK shows it!
Just started watching Atypical, it's kinda low-key amazing
And don't Torrent it as that would be immoral.
netflix
Ah so sad, not on Spanish Netflix. Bastardos.
I've been doing the same. Seen it all before but it's such a good show. Always makes me want to travel and eat.
You got Amazon Prime? S1 - S7 are on there too.
Also not on Prime in Spain

We're just watching The Virtues. Shane Meadows written and starring Stephen Graham. Very good, great performance from Graham as usual ... hard viewing mind you, certainly not one to cheer you up.
I know, right
I highly recommend Somos.
It's about how a Mexican cartel descendes on and infests a village called Allende, near the border to USA.
It covers many different perspectives. Low level dealers, law enforcement, well-off kids seemingly safe from the trouble, those corrupted by it all, the honest folk just trying to live their lives.
Available on Netflix. Six episodes.

Sounds interesting, cheers. Will add it to the list.
I like the idea that no matter what Ray did with his life he would always pathologically be the same in how he reacts to potential danger and how danger always seems to follow him, like when he said that when bad shit happens you shouldn't worry because good shit is always around the corner. I reckon those passengers he picked up in the last scene wished they never crossed his path. I don't think he's bad in an evil way its just that he only knows one way to deal with people who put it up to him by getting the first dig in. "

One thing I forgot to mention is that if you don't speak Spanish, prepare to read a lot of subtitles! It's worth it though.
Snabba Cash - Swedish street criminal / drug dealer drama. Highly recommend it, check your local Netflix for it.
Looks good. is it subtitled or dubbed?
Subtitled!
I agree. So much conveyed by that look/smile followed by RUN
So good I just watched the last 20 mins for the 4th time.

Looks entertaining.
I just finished the final season of The Americans.. Thought it was really good actually, great actors, good story...
Its a slower show, like for example also Breaking Bad and The Wire, really introducing the story and setting the stage in stead of having a lot of action and thrill from the start..

Going back to Deadwood as didn't finish it first time around. Onto S2 at the moment. Does anyone know if the film is available to watch in the UK?
Amazon Prime video. Other than that it was on Now TV.
We've just smashed through it all again, just a masterpiece.

Thanks, only to rent or buy on Prime. Thought it would be with the show on Sky but can't find anything. Where did you see it on Now TV, was it one of the Sky channels?
