Lazy Sunday viewing. Found the new version of Van der Valk.
Standard police procedural and although set in Amsterdam, the actors aren’t remotely Dutch.
Well made though and entertaining without being taxing.Yeah, so I gave this a go and thought it was pretty good. You do have to make your mind up to get over the wide boy accents and dialogue though. A little too much "Nah, he's done a runner innee".
Yeah. It's a brit cop show set in Amsterdam. Makes the scenery more interesting though and allows bike chases
I have no idea if these stories are based on the original books but I thought they were well plotted and good in the procedural basis.

Yeah. Definitely worth watching as they are well made and a nice change from the shows trying to out do each other with cleverness.
And they don't mumble!

Mindhunter
Really trying to stick with this as I get to the end of season 1 but FFS it is sedate in its pacing. There are series that are more entertaining.
Bloody loved it. Reading John Douglas's books years ago may have helped
It's a great show, gets close to my top 10.
The Last Kingdom update: Liked most of S2 then was liking S3 and then it just went a bit plot crazy. It feels like characters are doing stuff not because of their character but because of where the plot wants them to be. I think I'm still only halfway through S3. The fact it's 8 episode seasons makes it an easier watch.

Finished Upload...enjoyable series, not great, but enjoyable.
Well left for S2.

Manhunt:Unabomber is a good watch too.

Halfway through the season of Hollywood and loving it.
We started watching last night. Def. got us hooked.

@Victor-Meldrew I think Dylan McDermott was my fave on the show. He had such a Clark Gable lovable rogue air. Actually all the older actors got some good snark/winks in.

@taniwharugby said in TV Serieseseses:
@Nepia makes sense then
I've been putting off getting Amazon due to too many streaming services so far and I don't particularly care for their business practices, but I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet as there's too many shows I want to check out.
We get the TV with our household Amazon Prime.
Personally prefer Netflix. Seems to have fresher, classier stuff

@Mokey said in TV Serieseseses:
Streaming seems to have given a lease of life to some of the older actors, e.g. Woody Harrelson, Costner & Kathy Bates in The Highwaymen

Watched the first episode of Space Force. It was...ok? I guess I was expecting it to be sharper or wittier or something to make use of that cast.
Edit to add: I watched the second episode to see if it improved, and it was definitely better. But this show doesn't seem to know what it wants to be, goofy or biting satire or cutesy so it's a kind of a weird mash up of all three.
-
Done and dusted with White Lines
I had to watch it to find out what happened, now I know I wish I hadn’t bothered. Some pretty lazy writing and massive character inconsistencies relegate it to a pretty average TV series overall after a really good start.
Nice locations and T & A though

@MN5 well, fuck. It's shaping up nicely after a couple of episodes too....I guess the stereotypical goons should be a giveaway....
You love disagreeing with me on most things so chances are it’ll be the best TV show you’ve ever seen

Probably not.
