jpelg Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 (edited) Monsieur Spade - very well-done. Cinematically filmed, with a smartly-written script, yet subtly so (as in using language well, not in the "I'm smarter than you" way). Clive Owen delivers it perfectly. Six episodes.

jpelg Posted September 30 Report Share Posted September 30 (edited) Slow Horses (AppleTV) - finished s1, started s2... Again, late to the party, but after finishing Ted Lasso, I figured my ear was already trained for a variety of British accents, so... I probably should just put everything that Pars, Grahame, Torpedo, & blessingx recommend onto my watch-lists.

blessingx Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 (edited) On that note, Slow Horses and The Old Man are really on a higher level these seasons, no? They’re practically about family.

blessingx Posted Thursday at 10:17 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 10:17 PM Recently came across a reference to The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeiffer (UPN 1998). Somehow not only did this make it to production, but four episodes were aired, before being canceled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiWire Posted Sunday at 11:17 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 11:17 PM (edited) Jack of All Trades (2000) Bruce Campbell does it again! It's in a shorter format than The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. (22-minute episodes), but brilliant, nevertheless. American secret agent Jack Stiles is sent to the fictional French-controlled island of Pulau-Pulau in the East Indies in 1801 by President Thomas Jefferson to stop Napoleon and various other threats to the United States.

blessingx Posted Monday at 06:27 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:27 PM (edited) Mr. McMahon. Have zero interest in “sports entertainment”, but someone recommended I watch this six-part series to get a condensed view of the rise of incels, the Trump GOP takeover, and the loss of focus on truth, and gotta admit it’s pretty good through that lens.

tkam Posted Monday at 09:16 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 09:16 PM Finished Slow Horses today, what a fabulous show! Gary Oldman is so damn good 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMoney Posted Monday at 11:53 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 11:53 PM I did not think I would end up liking this show as I’m not much of a comic book/superhero person. Well, through four episodes this is not that! I find myself enjoying this show quite a bit. Colin F is almost unrecognizable and I always have enjoyed Cristin as the other lead. So far, so good! Surprisingly enjoyable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpelg Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago ^This! Farrell disappears in his performance under the body suit. But Milioti is an amaaazing actress, who secures Sofia Falcone's place as the most badass mafiosa of all time in episode 4 (Cent'Ann). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
