Bodyguard. First 2 episodes were good. Went rapidly down hill.

Don't believe the hype!

Just got fully up to date with Power, some serious shit goes down in this show!

Having signed up to Amazon Prime back in August to watch the City documentary, I've recently been exploring some of their box sets based in part on feedback seen here.

I really enjoyed Sneaky Pete S1 (saving S2 for later) and am now on Bosch S2. Both are very good.

I'm also enjoying really Ozarks S2 (only up to episode 5). Julia Garner is great, also the actor playing the obsessed FBI guy but most of all the Snells. Pretty sure the guy playing Mr Snell is actually Scottish, he played a similar character in Top of the Lake (BBC) a few years back.

He is yes, Peter Mullan.
There is a great cast in Ozark.
I like the barmaid Rachel played by the lovely Jordana Spiro. Phwooar!

Final episode was a let down,very rushed and hardly unpredictable.

Agreed. The first 5 episodes were very good, but the last one was very cliche ridden.

 

[Barcon]

Yep, just wrapped up S2 and Laura Linney is a revelation as is the girl who plays Ruth, a more messed up complex character I haven’t seen in a while.

The girl who plays Ruth is a good actress bur her character in the show drives me crazy. If I had to listen to that everyday I would go insane.
She also does a good job in the Americans and Waco.

The bodyguard (now with a spoiler,as i should have considerately used previously)

Spoiler

The Bodyguard. I like my thrillers to be a bit realistic tempered with a bit of poetic licence but, and there is always a but, last night took the biscuit. Do you really think that someone wearing a suicide vest and a dead man would just be shot in the middle of a very small ‘park’ in a residential area? If he had a ‘dead man’ how did they put it on without it blowing up and if, as they suggest, he had his thumb taped to the switch it would not have gone off if he had let go. That particular part was quite unreal.

Sounds like I made the right choice in giving up after episode 1

The beeb have been going on and on about it every week as though it's the best thing since sliced bread. It was a poor last episode. Strangers on ITV is more promising.

This last series was excellent, really reeled me back in.
