I felt the same. A very slow episode, nothing really happened, but the characters were interesting enough to warrant another watch.NorthWay wrote:I suggest you slip back and chill out. I have only seen the first episode, but it sure aint _fast_ (hurried/quick/frantic/whatever).Deckard wrote:I see True Detective is top of the TVTorrents chart series atm - Anyone seen it ?
We are deeply in slow Southern count(r?)y here.
And at the same time it isn't bad. First episode basically nothing happened apart from some background. I need to see some more episodes before judging it.

Re: New telly shows thread
Just downloaded the first 2 eps of the new "gay" series "Looking" after seeing some good reviews. Will watch tonight
Now with a new Mac Mini Pro so dont judge me !
Re: New telly shows thread
Going through the first series of "Borgen" at the moment. Quite decent political series about a fictional danish female PM.
Re: New telly shows thread
It's not bad. It's going to take a while to find its feet. The main cast I didn't like too much. Maybe they grow on me. It's not a patch on Queer as Folk UK or Canada. Canadian one is the best one.Deckard wrote:Just downloaded the first 2 eps of the new "gay" series "Looking" after seeing some good reviews. Will watch tonight

Just started watching season 1. It's a bit gruesome (which may mean we stop if it pushes the misses so far) but 4 episodes in and loving it so far.

It does get more intense, real edge of your seat stuff.......But well worth the trip. Just tell your misses to look away at some of it.Misfit wrote:Just started watching season 1. It's a bit gruesome (which may mean we stop if it pushes the misses so far) but 4 episodes in and loving it so far.

This is odd series. Pretty interesting. It is slow paced.

Re: New telly shows thread
I don't watch much telly but had to check out True Detective after hearing about it. Love it so far.. I've watched it all twice. I really like the Louisiana backroads landscapes... and the slow pace (with occasional super intense bits.. episode four man). What an amazing dark vibe.... I'm hooked. WHAT HAPPENS!?
Re: New telly shows thread
I really like the dynamic of the two. Rustin thinks outside the box and sees the universe and ponders. While Marty much more black and white.nyarla wrote:I don't watch much telly but had to check out True Detective after hearing about it. Love it so far.. I've watched it all twice.

This shot is Impressive. 6 Minutes one shot. No cuts. No retakes. Spoiler Alert.

Just watching the first ep here; it's getting a UK broadcast tonight.
Great so far though Rust just seems like an exceptionally grumpy David Byrne

Re: New telly shows thread
Wow...a pirate tv show. Don't often see that.
Anyway, not exactly a tv show, but I have been enjoying this Superhero heist thing;
Written by the same people as Eureka/Leverage, and co-produced by Felicia Day for her channel.
Enjoying it more then all the current superhero stuff on TV anyway.

I know. Full of sex, violent and nudity with decent acting apparently.Darkflame wrote:Wow...a pirate tv show. Don't often see that.
