Gangs of London

2 seasons currently on netflix.
It appears to be a show that AMC did but I do not recall hearing about it before.

Watched first season and it is pretty good. However I am kind of shocked with how graphic it is. Lots of killing and so on but really graphic for a show not on HBO or one of the bigger pay channels. Maybe it is an AMC+ show only and not on the regular AMC tv channel.

Either way it is a pretty decent show but if you watch it just know it is not for little eyes.

I really liked Gangs of London, it's got some pretty good fight and action scenes and yeah some is kinda graphic. It was created by Gareth Evans who wrote and directed The Raid movies.

Watching Sunny with Rashida Jones on AppleTV+ right now. Really interesting concept. I haven't yet been hooked, but I'm going to continue watching.

I could not get through episode 2 of Bridgerton. I generally like shows like this but I want them to be more historically accurate. I want to feel like I am immersed in the times but Bridgerton has constant reminders that it is Hollywood fiction.

The Stranger was pretty good I thought, although it was tough to follow.

Fool Me once, was by the same people that wrote the Stranger. I didn't like Fool Me Once that much.

The Night Agent was pretty good I thought. I liked "Condor" from MGM better.

Man, The Rings of Power is so boring and awful. I can't believe the most expensive show in history is trash. Don't waste your time.

 

[Roadtrip635]

Watched the final season of "Evil" and sorry to see it go. I've enjoyed this series and overall liked the final season and the way it ended. I'm glad they left the door open for a possibility of a future series in some form, I'd like to see more from these characters.

I just finished Vikings: Valhalla season 3. It is the usually stuff. Good guys go on adventures, get in trouble, things look dismal, then, well I won't give anything away.

This season we follow 3 storylines, Harold, Freydis, and Leif, with some parallel storylines involving King Canute and Queen Emma and all their kids. There are good guys, bad guys and some people you are not sure what they are. There was not as much fighting and gore as there was in Vikings or even the first couple of seasons of Valhalla. There was some, of course, but this season it really focused on destiny of a lot of characters.

Let's be honest, all of these shows follow a similar template. The actors have to pull off the trick of making it look different somehow. I think it works with this show. It is not on par with Game of Thrones or even the early seasons of Vikings, but there are some really good scenes that bring this show close to be really good. One scene is particular is with King Canute and the eldest son of Queen Emma, Edward. Bradley Freegard, who plays King Canute was captivating, as he was for most of this season. Freegard just clicks as he delivers some valuable advice to Edward, who we know from history eventually takes the throne of England.

This show will not be for everyone. If you are not into Viking adventures you won's like this. And I am not sure the accents the Scandinavian characters speak with are even remotely Scandinavian. Yet, I really like this show and I am looking forward to Season 4 if there is one.

I give Vikings: Valhalla a solid 7 of 10.

Just finished binge watching the three seasons. Watched the first one when it first came out but went through it again.
As a whole I enjoyed the series.

I think I liked the main characters in the original viking series. However Vikings Vahalla was good on its own and has good characters as well. I know it is all based on real vikings but they do change some things up to make it flow and keep in interesting.

Good show. If you liked the Vikings show, you should enjoy this series as well.

Man, The Rings of Power is so boring and awful. I can't believe the most expensive show in history is trash. Don't waste your time.

I tried to watch season one but never made it past episode five. I just clicked a YouTube video to find out the lore so I knew what was going to happen and who all these people would end up being or influencing in the Lord of Rings movies. Good casting though. I like most of the elven choices, and has to be the first time I’ve ever seen a female dwarf too. Didn’t even know they existed. More dwarven stuff in this one than even The Hobbit that stretched a journey with 10 dwarves into three films.

I watched the first 3 episodes, and honestly, I like it much better than the first season. Though I don't particularly care for the actor playing Agent Smith. He doesn't look or act anything like him. He's rather doofy looking, actually.

I agree he is doofy looking, but I think he is great. His interactions with his dwarf friend have been fantastic.

Yes, the dynamic between those two is pretty good, but I attribute that to the writing, more than his acting. Don't get me wrong, I don't find him horrible, I just think they could've found someone much better.

I finished the last Episode of The Boys on Prime. I am struggling how to write my thoughts on this show. This was a great series but this season it went to a place that took a lot of the fun out of it. At times I liked it and other times I didn't. It's a comic book and the writers should never forget that.

The last episode did not have a satisfying ending but it certainly leaves the opening for the next season if there is one, and that is the problem with shows like this, especially on Amazon Prime where shows can get cancelled unexpectedly, like the Peripheral.

I wish I could give this season a high grade but I can't. I will say it was a 4 out of 10. I hope next season, if there is one, gets back on track but I suspect not.

Next season is suppose to be the final one to finish it up. I agree that this season wasn't up to par with others.

Season 5 was renewed earlier this year, prior to season 4 being released.

Entire season felt just off...something wasn't clicking.

Yes, I heard. It is supposed to be the last season. But I never trust Prime video until I see a release date.

This is an extremely popular show for Amazon and has done well each season. There really is no reason to doubt that season 5 is happening. They are already set to start filming in November. It is set to be the final season under Eric Kripke, the show runner. If they feel it does well enough in season 5, they could possibly pick up a sixth season under a new show runner.

 

[SlammedZero]

For those talking about The Boys......I enjoyed the season, but I could see where it's getting a little long in the tooth for people. I think having it wrap up next season will be a good decision.
