    Mind Hunter season 1.

    In the late 1970s two FBI agents expand criminal science by delving into the psychology of murder and getting uneasily close to all-too-real monsters.

        Dark is the only TV shows that made me understand what Peter Griffin meant when he said it "insists upon itself".

              Hard to argue, but the sun even shines on a dog's arse some days.

              Dark to me was a great representation of what's wrong with streaming services. They wrote one great season and if that gets traction they try to capitalise on it and sacrifice plot for speed.

              I actually didn't mind Dark, I just don't think it hit as high as it could've.

              If you wanna watch a great show that knew one season was enough: Katla.

                I tried with Katla, couldn't see it through because of other stuff I was prioritising. Might revisit.

                As for Dark, I think what may have cooked them if anything was not ****ing up S2 and actually hitting it out of the park! It was almost impossible to follow up, and I think they did their best to try and tie so many layers together. Did I love S3? No, but it hard extremely high standards to live up to.

                    It’s a great listen but poor Bill always sounds completely exhausted during the episodes for whatever reason.

                      i think that's just how he sounds a lot of the time, although he did say that after directing the whole series, by episode 8 or 9 he was completely exhausted. He is an absolute film geek. Reckon a lot of his future will be in directing.

                        I've enjoyed how Barry has morphed. Initially it seemed like a Black Comedy..but it's really transformed into something quite darker and serious. I look forward to watching Season 4 in a few weeks time, when I've the time.

                          What a show!

                          End of the second act of the final season (ep8) was outstanding.

                              the denouement wasn't as fitting as the show deserved.
