Suburra: Blood on Rome (2017–2020)

Gypsy magic

[5/10 · 23 November 2023]

I've watched season one and now on season two, and it is so circular all about a piece of land involving the gypsies and the mafia, and the counsellors and the Vatican. I'll give it a five as some of the acting wasn't bad whatsoever.

I just can't find a reason to keep on watching it as it seems to be leading nowhere.

Sorry I apologise I'm on series 1 episode 10 and the whole concept is beginning to bore the tits of me.

I wish we could be allowed to write shorter reviews because sometimes we run out of words to describe a series that really is not hitting in the mark.

Definitely watch in Italian with subtitles rather than English, which was unreal.

Catastrophe (2015–2019)

I laughed

[10/10 · 28 April 2023]

I have watched TV all my life, now 65. Comedy has never featured in my list. I watch every other genre of TV and films and series, but never comedy. I have tried many times.. but never really laughed. Frasier is probably the only show that ever made me laugh heartedly in my life.

This series has made me laugh many many times because it is so close to real life. My compliments to Rob and Sharon, absolute amazing writing with so many serious thoughts thrown into the script.. You took us to places we have all been in life. The hard facts of life with fun thrown in.

My compliments to the acting and the writing to both of you, but I must also add compliments to Mark Bonnar and Daniel Lapaine.

Gangs of London (2020– )

Second series pure rubbish

[4/10 · 20 October 2022]

Second series pure rubbish Unbelievable tripe. Everybody is a bad man trust nobody. There is no words to describe how stupid this show has become.

First series was believable and understandable second series is a mishmash of pure rubbish.

Supposed a deadman awakening weren't really dead. A fish market full of dead people innocence no sign of police unbelievable crap.

All these guys running about in London with automatic rifle shooting every goddamn person they see.

It would have been nice to see some semblance of reality just something that would make one believe it was possible in the real world but no it's like sci-fi.

Silent Witness: History - Part Four (2022) Season 25, Episode 4

Rubbish

[2/10 · 10 June 2022]

Rubbish. This supposedly amazing series concerning pathologists who spend most of their time doing police work but Also highlighting how stupid the police are and how amazing they are. Everywhere they go they find shoes with soil in the soles leading them to obscure farms. It's just bloody ridiculous. Each and everyone of them has these messed up family relationships. Jack Heads back to Northern Ireland having spent most of his life in England but yet has this amazingly strong Northern Ireland accent to find that his mum was a Tout In the 90s assuming he is now supposedly 30/32.

I have lived in Northern Ireland all my life I am 63 years of age lived in the worst areas of Belfast throughout the late 70s and 80s. 99% of us lived a totally normal life but they have to focus on another screwed up bloody family.

But a good storyline for the show paints Another picture of Northern Ireland being a screwed up society because of religion.

I finish by saying 99% of Northern Ireland people are the most amazing in the world but yet the stupid program focuses on one percent of People who wanted to destroy the lives of the other 99%

Sorry heartfelt truth.

Informer (2018)

Usual storyline

[3/10 · 12 May 2022]

Again another story belittling the police service. Undercover corrupt cops using every dirty trick in the book against normal civilians. Holly the second detective is like some child in the school yard And would probably act reasonably if she was in a school play. It just keeps getting worse Am now on episode three And not sure if I will watch much more.

Truth & Lies (2015 TV Movie)

C rubbish

[2/10 · 10 February 2022]

A crowd of old actresses trying to play teenagers. The first Five minutes of the show and you know exactly the tripe it's going to be.

Watched 21 minutes and gave up.

Hope Street (2020– )

Rubbish

[2/10 · 2 February 2022]

I have lived in Northern Ireland all my life 62 years. Firstly I've never been in a pub like that in my life. There is nothing real about this program or anything that equates to normal life in Northern Ireland. Portrays the PSNI as this lovely small community police force Which is absolute rubbish.

Leila arrives in Northern Ireland hiding as an undercover cop from Nottingham because of a gang that were involved in guns. So the first place you go to is probably the worst place in the world to go to hide from Gun runners gun crime gun culture.

A record of the show for a binge watch but sadly four episodes then and it's pure rubbish.

The Bay: Episode #3.1 (2022) Season 3, Episode 1

5 mins

[5/10 · 21 January 2022]

Just watched the first seven minutes of series 3. Indian restaurant scene lady dancing on the carpet that was just thrown down totally unsafe for any customer.

Lady detective Which I assume to be Lisa's replacement Drives into the back of a car at murder scene what an amazing coincidence. Please ??

I will watch another 10 minutes.

Vigil (2021– )

Failed badly

[3/10 · 30 September 2021]

Just watched six episodes altogether. Started off very well for the first four episodes and then everything started going downhill to a rubbish episode six.
