Trigger point. An Over hyped disappointment. Just not feeling it.
Every episode is the same. |

It's awesome. Are you watching the one with Dave in it? He's a rapper usually but did a great turn for 'Modie' in the last series I saw. |

Watched the woman at the window opposite the girl across the road in the window or something like that on netflix. Was ok, bit of a twist at the end. Unrealistic but worth a watch.

Along with many a crime based drama at the moment. Writers and directors are trying to be too clever and the result is several weeks worth of unrealistic crap. |

Unrealistic but worth a watch. agreed. think the first 10 minutes of the final episode were the best  not sure it was meant to be anything other than a tongue in cheek parody, but it was a bit too subtle if so. |

Seems to be a particular problem with British TV shows, they drag out for 6 1 hour episodes a story that could be easily knocked on the head in 3 at most. Last year we had The Serpent which I gave up on after 3 and apparently continued to drag tediously until the last one was quite good, now we have Chloe on BBC which I sacked off after 2, the missus persevered and apparently it was pretty good in the end! Oh and don't get me started on the lack of 'previously' bits at the start of shows, as someone who rarely if ever has the time to binge watch I often give up as I cannot remember what is going on when I finally find time to watch another episode! |

Watched ep1. Didn't bother after that. Someone needs to tell Mercurio that the killing a well known member of the cast in the first hour is only a shock the first couple of times you do it. Do it in everything you write and it gets dull. |

As I deal with some forces time off I’ve just finished Reacher on Amazon. I liked it, he seemingly has more than nine lives mind, best programme in a long while was The Responder.

I liked the responder too. Read a few negative reviews of it elsewhere though.

Another vote for the responder, I thought it was really good. |
