Nice! All of those are brilliant shows.
Y'think? Thought the ending was brilliant myself, and it is based on the memoirs of Jimmy Keene himself so I'm assuming that's exactly how things went down.
Oh yeah, not criticizing the veracity or anything, but I felt it was building up to something... bigger? I can't quite put my finger on it, but the last 30mns felt a little bit rushed for me.
I guess ultimately he was a serial liar (as well as killer) who constantly back tracked on his confessions, so only getting 2 out of the ten's of women he killed was a bit anti climactic, maybe, especially with the map being burnt. Plus ultimately after all the investigative work of the police it was after a guilt trip and beers with his brother that they were able to convict him.
Yeah that pretty much sums it up. Not a fundamental criticism of the show, which is great, just felt the ultimate "delivery" wasn't quite as good as all the build-up to it.
I disagree, I found it to be 10/10 all the way through. I was generally gutted when it finished.
Definitely agree. (with you) I think Wibble was just trying not to oversell it too much.
Something like that.Definitely agree. I think Wibble was just trying not to oversell it too much.
Severance.
I enjoyed the first season immensely. The fight scenes are epic and the mad queen is played brilliantly. Only watched a couple of episodes of the second season before getting distracted by other shows but I'd definitely recommend watching a few episodes to see if it floats your boat.
Definitely Severance first. Black bird was decent. Heard good stuff about Tehran (on here).
thank you
1st season was really great but then it went downhill. I stopped watching half way thru season 2.
I think this show looks good but if you see past that, it is a bit shit. Like, the main character's family has been found slaughtered just hours before and now he's having these wannabe weirdo chats with the detectives about some historical religious events and that takes up most of the air time.
You realize that the show was depicting real life events, yes? Of course there’s liberties taken at times, but apparently the show stayed pretty close to Krakauer’s book.
Yeah I am knowledgeable of that but still the scripting or acting is way off.
Interesting.
I kind of felt the first season was excellent but it just was recycling the same storyline over and over beyond that point. There was usually a few good burns to laugh at but it just became stale very quickly.
I can only assume you haven’t watched the whole thing cause it’s full of nonsense.
It did not end well.
That's okay. We both don't need to have exact same taste and it doesn't mean what we like is bad. I know many who liked The Outsider and also who didn't. Depends on person to person.
Ted Lasso
Severance and Black Bird probably the two best new shows on TV.
