Or is it to sell to the Asian market. I've always loved the show up until now but it all felt a bit contrived. Yeah, I'm not really feeling season 2 so far. It's not that it's bad, it's just not particularly good either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was very cheap humour at best and could not understand why it was highly rated. Was awful. Me too, it's a bloody awful show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 22, 2018 Moderator Share Posted May 22, 2018 Really enoying The Blacklist. Just over halfway through season 3 now (23 eps per season ftw!). Reddington is a brilliant character. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost unbelievably so. Just so incredibly bad, with no redemption, at all. Every character is a stereotype. The dialog is dreadful. It does that terrible Family Guy thing for every other joke - "hey remember when absurd thing happened" <flashback>. Every attempt at humour is telegraphed with a neon sign pointed at it so the stupidest viewer doesn't miss that they're trying to be funny I gave it five episodes as I figured they might just be finding their feet in the first couple, but there's zero improvement. yes agreed. I gave it a season and a half to see if it improved. It didn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Have to say fear the walking dead has been shit this season. I think when they killed off a certain person early on has really harmed the show. Idiotic decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I guessed the killer with about 2 and a half episodes to go which spoiled any big reveal. Still think it was decent overall, but lets itself down by the end. I just finished it after a 2 day binge. Liked it at first but felt like it was about 4 episodes too long. Too many people who seemd guilty before having an obvious decent alibi. Spoiler Also the father of the girl who had the party - what a terrible character - turned it into Del Boy & Rodney-esque comedy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always loved the show up until now but it all felt a bit contrived. Bit hit and miss for me. Spoiler I'm not too invested in Maeve's storyline, and I didn't think with such a sprawling story, we needed even more characters introduced. Didn't really care for the whole Shogun thing at all, really. Please, narrative guy, tell us again that 'this isn't in the story'. Are the hosts not acting as you'd expect? 1.5 seasons in, this is hardly a **** revelation mate. One host has had you by the balls for almost an entire season, is that in the story? Paint it Black, though. It took a few seconds to recognise the song, and when I did, I turned to the gf and said "They're not...Are they? The cheeky bastards". Had a big grin on my face through the entire scene, it was brilliant. Edited May 23, 2018 by Davkaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted May 23, 2018 Moderator Share Posted May 23, 2018 24 Hours in Police Custody the other night was absolutely incredible. I'd caught one from the previous series and thought it was really good, but this one was off the scale. It certainly proves the old adage, there's nowt as queer as folk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted May 23, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 23, 2018 Lindelof has given some more hints towards what his Watchmen series will be. It's a modern not sequel follow on to the events of the comic, apparently, that remixes and revisits some of its themes. It's going to be **** dreadful. Leave it alone. There's a reason it's considered a masterpiece in any form of fiction, and it's not because Lindelof can improve it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
