Slow Horses (2022)
Overrated
I first heard about the show a week ago in an interview with K. Scott Thomas.
Out of curiosity, I just finished bingewatching the first two seasons today and I don't understand how this serie gets an imdb rating close to 8!
Rarely have I experienced a story that contains so many humanly illogical downright ridiculous choices made by the characters, especially if you consider we're dealing with MI5 agents.
I don't know, maybe this was done just to maintain suspense. But the storyline suffers under it.
Too bad, because the acting by the main characters was rather good. But what a waste of time.
Bloodlands (2021)
Season 1 was fine, 2 is badly scripted
Season 1 kept me watching. The whole atmosphere, the cinematography, the conflicts and the impact upon peoples' lives, The suspense etc... all very enjoyable.
I also love Nesbitt's acting, but can't understand why he would agree to the script of the second season.
If he truly was such a mastermind as portrayed in the 1st series, he would totally not make the rookie mistakes we saw in the second.(even any traffic cop wouldn't). Unfortunately this makes season 3 implausible.
I don't blame the actors, but the plot and in general the whole script has flaws allover it. Such a shame.
Even the ending makes me even doubt more if I'm gonna watch the 3rd.
