NCC1701A Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 "She Is Just a Shadow" Not for everyone. Average acting. Extremely violent. Huge amount of Asian girls running around in cosplay outfits and completely naked. It is a Japanese Tokyo mafia crime story, not horror as the review says. "In this highly art-directed weirdo horror soft core, no amount of spurting blood or naked female bodies can make up for the poor writing and awkward performances, but Sherman certainly throws all of that at the problem." https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/movies/story/2019-07-18/review-shes-just-a-shadow-review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing unusual really. hard to narrow it down but these would be there or therabouts: The Sopranos Sons of Anarchy / Mayans Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul The Shield GoT Having said that I like a lot of cop shows, both UK and US so currently Luther, Line of Duty, Bosch and Chicago PD, older ones Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue, Criminal Intent, CSI etc. No comedy in the above list either, which is a shame.

Pretty close to my preferences. Mine would be: The Sopranos Breaking bad The Wire The shield & Justified SOA and Gomorrah would be in the top 10 also.

The Wire got great reviews and is in lots of people's top ten but I just couldn't get into it, I'll have to give it another go sometime soon.

Worth watching. Pennyworth series just ended with him banging Queen Liz in a one night stand. Also watching TV series "Evil", and "The Capture", and Sanditon", and "Stumptown" Yes, like Evil and Stumptown so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want comedy try "Curb Your Enthusiasm". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was a good summing up of the series too. A good start, but went slowly downhill. The least episode must have been written by someone on drugs.

Yes like the show the Office, American Idol, All in the Family, and a few others we copied from the UK. Think we copied the Bridge from Sweden and am sure there are others Face it, the Americans can spend more money on their series, and we have more award shows giving out trophies to celebrate our uniqueness. 5555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Just noticed on RARBG that El Marginal season 3 (with subs) has dropped. If you haven't seen this one, it's an excellent show. Summary: Miguel, a former Argentinian cop, is sent by a judge to get into a prison in order to find the kidnapper of his daughter as a result of a favor.

IMO, you really need to watch from the start to get a good idea of the characters. I'm not quite sure why you would'nt start from season 1 TBH. Only 8 episodes per season.
