Anyone watched Broad City?
8.4 IMDB and 5 series starting 2014 - how have I not heard of this?
22 mins of my life I'm never getting back
Can see why I never heard of it
Did not laugh once
5 seasons
What the actual fuck?
Ha, 8.4 rating!
In a weird way, your review kinda makes me want to give it a crack...the trainwreck analogy maybe?

Just started The Diplomat
3 episodes back to back
Excellent
Couldn't get past E1 and I give Keri Russell a lot of leeway after the excellence of The Americans.
The whole show is based on such a weird premise, especially around the husband
Yeah we ditched it about three quarters through the first episode. Seemed like it was written by kids.

In a good way?

No. Hackneyed, unfunny and boring. Bailed after E1.

that makes me sad
I saw it an instantly thought "holy shit True Lies was friggen awesome, i assume this is a sequal set like down the track?"
And then the first review i saw was scathing. Now you guys.
I'll just go watch True Lies again

Disneyplus also has a series now called True Lies based on the movie. I like the idea in principle as I also liked the movie, but perhaps it was the wrong platform to build the series on. Overly sanitized and boring.

Just finished
Loved it
Started out unsure of itself - satire, comedy, rom-com, political drama - with shades of The Thick of It, Veep, and Designated Survivor then transitioned to a taut political thriller with excellent writing and dialogue
Rory Kinnear's performance as Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge should be award worthy
He seamlessly and expertly combined all the worst traits of Blair, Cameron, Johnson & Hancock to craft an entirely believable British politician / PM
Keri Russell commands the screen
Can't wait for Season 2

@MiketheSnow I still found it strange that Rufus Sewell was cast to play an American. I realise he did the same in The Man in the High Castle.

And did it with aplomb
Just don't tell Michael Sheen

Good watch

One of my all time favourite series.
Seeing this on another platform has me rewatching the series again and already nearing the end of season 1.
Not the sort of TV that ages badly, well written and well acted. Also a big fan of Olyphant which has me asking myself again, why the hell was Santa Clarita Diet cancelled as it was such a good dark comedy.
