Lioness - S02
I'm about to watch final episode - so review is based on what's happened to date- One or more ferners assured another ferner that "Season 2 is better than Season 1"
-
- That is incorrect
-
- Season 2 is more FUN than Season 1
-
- Season 1 was more suspenseful, brooding, "what's going to happen?"
-
- Season 2 is more... gunfights in every single episode
-
-
- And more "america rah rah rah - fuck we're awesome"
-
-
-
- Season 2 is pretty much "Tom Clancy's Jane Ryan"
-
-
-
- verging on "Strike Back - with more estrogen, yet less tit"
-
- I hadn't realised this was a Taylor Sheridan thing. But once I saw his name... the clumsiness of some of the political shit became clear
- I assume Sheridan doesn't direct every episode - but maybe provides "stylistic guidance"
-
- One thought I had early on was "Whoever's doing this - at least they don't do the Zack Snyder lens-flare thing constantly - but by fuck do they love the close up of a heroic pose with blurry background"
-
- Then... they started doing lens-flare as well
-
- Fucking hacks
- Tit-watch - infuriating
-
- Early on - some shots suggesting there are some rather promising materiale
-
- Later-on - maybe we could present this materiale to you in a sapphic context
-
- Some rather fucking school-boy-ish imagination of how sapphic goes, but....
-
- ... then nothing.
TL;DR - Lioness S02 - not better than S01, but more 'fun'.

In your opinion

Bergerac. Re-boot of the classic 80's series set in Jersey.
A list of stock characters and stereotypes wrapped around shit unoriginal plots. You know the format - the obligatory BAME female Chief Constable, the maverick female reporter from out of town, the alcoholic main character, the lead detective on the case with the hidden personal agenda, the unlikeable rich bloke.......
An utter pile of dross.

@MiketheSnow Yes - sorry - maybe I should have stated - "In my opinion".
I'd assumed that we had all come to a tacit agreement that in a thread about TV serieseses - pretty much everything in it was assumed to be subjective, except the two objective topics: whether a series exists, and titwatch.
Until today - that seems to have worked - including any posts stating "Season 2 is better". -
Binged Zero Day on Netflix over the last few days.
Series best summed up as path to hell is paved with good intentions. Good writing, acting and tight production quality. Worth a watch IMO.

Yeah decent so far.
De Niro in fine form and the wish version of Matt Damon is less chubby and irritating than usual.
Not sure what the issue with him is, I’m sure I’ll find out.

@Bones said in TV Serieseseses:
The latest season of Lincoln Lawyer is easily the best.
Yaya DaCosta is the sole reason, by fuck she cuts a ridiculously fine figure.
I like the blond and Neve Campbell as well, always nice to see how 90s babes look nowadays…..
But the show went from ok entertainment to pretty shite in my opinion.
That Aussie guy with the beard trying to be American is one of TVs stupidest characters ever
