Heartbreaking and Infuriating
27 April 2024
We binged this series today as we found it fascinating. I read the reviews and was impressed with this story I had previously heard nothing about. The fact that these postal bureaucrats and executives obviously lied when they were aware of programming issues and falsely implicated this staggering amount of people is hard to understand or forgive. There are executives who were in charge at the time that deserve jail time for this egregious miscarriage of justice. I am glad this series is jump starting this dragged out process, but the continuing delay paints an ugly picture of British justice and government.

Don't Recommend Binge Watching the First Four Episodes
22 August 2022
You might binge watch this, but the story is very intense and you really need a break after an episode. I watched the first two together and the others separately. My comments are only on these first four. The acting is excellent. The Direction is excellent. The story is heartbreaking. Local authority is unprepared and non existent. The lack of local, state and federal assistance is criminal. A hard lesson that hopefully improved every hospital emergency plan as well as individual, family, corporate, local, state and federal emergency plans dealing with any disaster. You feel drained after watching each of the first four episodes.

Hold Tight (2022)

Waste of time
2 May 2022
I usually will not watch anything under a 6 rating and this was a little over that when we started watching. Either the translation to the subtitles was bad or the writing was bad. I expect both.

The Best Program on Regular TV
8 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I enjoyed the first three seasons and had been eagerly awaiting the fourth. The first two episodes did not disappoint. I was glad to see all the main characters return, but I was perplexed that Jamie did not have more of a part. His betrayal and relationship with his real father is the most unbelievable part but it does add a little JR to the story. He was an obvious suspect behind these ambushes and I thought that would have been explored sooner. In a typical Western fashion all of the gunmen were dispatched and disposed of, but someone who professed to have set this up was identified and will be heard from soon. This is hands down the best program on television.

Being Generous With a 3
29 September 2021
I wanted to like this program. It starts with bad writing and continues with an unconvincing cast. The scenery brings it up to a three.

Waste of Time
2 August 2021
The pandemic is the only reason this survived to a season 2. Bad script does not rescue these mediocre actors.

Must have been financed by a relative
6 October 2020
This is the worst program I have seen in quite some time. It might get better in future episodes, but I don't think there will be enough people around to watch it to justify any businesses spending money on commercials. I could only watch 20 minutes of episode one. The only thing that was missing was putting on a talent show. I was expecting better.

Best Show on TV
28 February 2020
The story line is excellent. The acting is excellent. I do not think it gets nearly the recognition it deserves as the best drama on television.

My Favorite Western
16 November 2019
I have seen this movie maybe 8 times since the original release. It is a bit slow, but it is still my favorite Western. The music score is fantastic and my favorite of any movie. I think this was Charles Bronson at his best. All of the cast members were great.

Carol's Second Act (2019–2020)
2/10
Awful
16 November 2019
The only reason to even suspect this is a comedy is the canned laughter. This program survives on the reputation of Patricia Heaton. I do not think the cast is as bad as the writing. This is junk.

Will Win Multiple Awards
29 October 2018
An absolutely great soundtrack adds to the excellent acting from Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper and Sam Elliott. Directing and cinematography were also excellent. Should win multiple Oscars. Absolutely the best movie I have seen this year.
