kinuta Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 True Detective - finale Intense, well judged and completely satisfying end to a superb show. I was very impressed and will rewatch the whole season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 The Returned (Les Revenants) Excellent series, well worth seeking out. (currently available on Netflix streaming in the US) This is so good it makes me scared to try the US remake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Not great so far but now bad, better so far than Alcatraz. Has Jake McLaughlin in it, who I think is a decent actor, I enjoyed his work in Crash Season 2. Also has the charismatic Delroy Lindo. It has a "Touch" influence, not a bad thing in my book.

The Returned is available on DVD if you don't stream.I don't believe I'll watch the US remake of Broadchurch either - although it is going to star Anna Gunn. Don't need to decide for the present.

I will probably wait until I find out whether it gets renewed for a second season prior to starting it. I've kind of given up on the uncertainty of network TV.

jazzbo Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I just take it as dished out if I have the time, and I don't do streaming so I still give the networks a chance. It's a good substitute for smypathetic company and Lord knows I can use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 This week's Suits, Elementary and Vikings. . . . As well as this week's episode of my guilty pleasure, Millionaire Matchmaker. This show is so entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erwbol Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 The Walking Dead shoots live little girls in the back of the head with a revolver, but Hannibal is still king for eating them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I avoid both of those! Watched today the second episode of Resurrection, and last night's Comic Book Men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwbol Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I don't know why I still watch The Walking Dead. It's been so awful so often, but I fast forward through every next episode to see where things will end up going. I guess this storyline is straight from the comics, but it was a sad highpoint in a miserable season. Hannibal is a favourite, though.

jazzbo Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I watched the first few episodes and I just couldn't bear seeing one creative way to murder someone after another presented as some form of performance art. I actually liked aspects of the series a lot, but just couldn't bear watching the glorification of weird murder (how it struck me). At some point I may try it again. Walking Dead. . . again I might like the struggle to survive and the attemtp to keep human interaction and community together, but zombies. . . I've always hated zombies no matter how they have been dressed and re-dressed. I'll probably never watch that series. Finished watching this week's Once Upon a Time. That show is a hoot.

erwbol Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I like watching Mads Mikkelsen as a perfect psycho. There is something fascinating for me about this Hannnibal. Being on the autism spectrum myself has something to do with this fascination, but despite my detachment and lack of empathy I'm of course not a psychopath. It's engaging and chilling at the same time. It's more about the characters than the gore freak show for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Well, that's the main aspect of the show I very much liked, I just couldn't get beyond those other elements. Perhaps on disc I can fast forward through all that, may try that at some time, I do see a lot of value in the show, just can't get past that vivid aspect.
