Reacher is just dreadful, ridiculous storylines & wooden acting from the main character.

Reacher is just dreadful, ridiculous storylines & wooden acting from the main character.

The first two series weren't bad but series 3 is a definite step down, too much emphasis on "humour". The Neagley spin off may be better as I like her character.

Adolescent.
Wow astonishing. 13 year old boy accused of murder. Filmed in one shot.
Outstanding.

watched all 4 yesterday - brilliant tv but a tough watch, especially if you've got teenage kids. Episodes 1 and 3 are outstanding, episode 2 not so good. The young kid - what an actor!!

I was just amazed they did it all in one take, can you imagine if someone fucked up after 55 minutes :0

I'm 4 episodes in on 1883 and I must say that I'm very much enjoying it, it's absolutely made for Sam Elliott, includes the beautiful Isabel May and Faith Hill too!

Starting it next week.
Does Faith Hill burst into song at any stage?

It is excellent. As is 1923

Lol it’s been like that since day one.

If you’re looking for clever twists and realism then you’re barking up the wrong tree.

Just sit back and enjoy it for what it is. Bit of mild escapism, well paced and with a big fella going round doing what big fellas can do

It’s total rubbish but I’m really enjoying it

Not that I've seen - as yet!

That's next on the list.

Absolutely shite, crap storyline & crap acting, avoid at all costs, only redeeming feature that Reacher is a big **** opposed to Tom Cruise the midget

Watched first episode of Dope Thief well it's something I didn't expect and different to a lot of tv series I've watched!

Done the 2 available, eagerly awaiting the 3rd

Just finished Adolescence. The general rule of anything with Stephen Graham being worthy still applies. Deeply thought provoking, especially having just had a son one month ago.

I haven't watched it yet, but it seems to be a good rule. Such a good actor

 

[The Black Shed]

Another vote for Slow Horses. Top notch telly

 

[Bill Walker]

Just watched Black Snow S1.
Thought it was excellent. Nice scenery up at the top end.

Thanks I'll check it out, I like him although I thought Scouse accents went down like a lead balloon on here :)

Just watched him in Boiling point TV series.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Just watched the first episode, all I can say is wow. The acting in this is just incredible, especially the child actor. Absolutely gripping. Didn't feel like binging it all at once because I felt like I needed to decompress after the first episode. The way its filmed all in one take is brilliant. Incredible television, like everything with Steven Graham in.

A thousand blows is also very good with him on Disney+ but I enjoyed the female leads performance more in that. Had a bit of a crush on her lol.

Season 3 of Reacher goes in my "It's ok" bucket like the book did. It's an easy watch if you're not expecting realism but the bad guys and the dea agents are pretty annoying. A lot will hinge on how they do the thing in the book - could be good or could be meh

Just started watching adolescence on NetFlix. First episode was fantastic, second is quite bizarre and doesn't really develop the story other than making stupid school jokes.
