I hate watching serial killer stories but was intrigued by this one. How is it?

I started watching that the other day with my dog. Then my wife came home and wanted nothing to do with it. Let us know how it is.

I've been watching it since the first season came out. At this point I don't even remember season 1 but I definitely wasn't put off by it. One of the best scifi series out right now. Only have 3 episodes left to watch in season 4 and I'm trying to ration them.

My kryptonite is stuff set in medieval times. I couldn't even get past like 1-2 episodes of Game of Thrones. I dunno just something about that shit turns me off. Typically though if I like a show at the start I will watch all seasons. Rarely do I quit a show already into season 1. Has only happened a couple times.

I couldn't even start it once I knew what it was about. I heard it doesn't show the actual events, but shows the aftermath of it.

It would put me in a very bad place as I hold animals very dearly. Most people just hide behind a fake persona that they put up....but something that can be a household pet is always going to be your best friend through thick and thin.

Whatever happens in the end...I hope the guy got 10X the pain and grief he gave out!

He's rotting in a Canadian prison and will never see the light of day....having said that, Canadian prison isn't as bad as many others. But guys like him are pretty much locked down 24/7, It's a pretty bleak existence but not nearly as bleak as many would like it to be.

I really believe this kind of stuff disturbs your soul. Not like the fantasy OTT deaths in a typical action adventure.

Thanks for the review. I trust your opinion on movies but I won't watch it.

Since this is a car forum I should mention "The Racing Years" series on Amazon Prime. Old shows covering mostly European racing. One episode per year from 1950 through 1975. A really fine way to educate oneself on the history of motorsport, in particular some of its most dynamic, exciting, and dangerous seasons.

We started LiS Season 2 last night. Wife likes it, I'm ambivalent. 3 episodes consumed so far and I'm getting a little tired of each episode being a sequence of death defying derring-do. I'm starting to get a jumped-the-shark vibe. Hoping they right the ship.

So my lovely bride and I watched 6 episodes of The Witcher last night, about to finish up this evening. It was ok, our Nerd son who is home for Christmas has read the book and is all about this. My first impression and wife concurs, it was ok. Geralt was very brooding, and didn't have many lines, this is no GOT, it seemed to lean on CGI a bit much and the story line (I found anyway) was a bit disjointed. Anyway, like I said it was ok, I don't know if there will be a season two.

Wrapped up S3 of Goliath. This season was slow to start IMO but still a good show. Looks like S4 will be the last season and that's a shame because Billy Bob is good as the character and I think the show has some depth to explore (which seems to be lacking in a low of shows).

It got good, and I enjoyed Dennis Quaid, But Overall I thought it was a very uneven season

I LOVE scifi series so I was really looking forward to this one. However couldn't even finish season 1. Just the whole vibe, how it makes me feel watching it, wasn't doing anything for me. The sketchy lady who snuck onboard the ship with the family, can't stand her character.

I may try it again when I'm done with my other shows, but after like 3 or 4 episodes I wasn't feeling it.

It got better. Still heavy on the cheating death stuff but they're filling out the other plot lines and and characters now. We'll probably binge the final episodes tonight.

Had high hopes for Season 3 as well (after Season 1 & 2) but ultimately also found the plot to be as boring as it was uneven.
