Came in here to say this. I liked it too. Hopefully it gets picked up.

Meanwhile, Banshee season 3 has been INSANE BEYOND MEASURE! High intensity stuff every episode. Most definitely the best season of Banshee by far if it continues like this. Has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

lol almost every show on RT has 90+ percentage. So I don't know how accurate of measure that is.

I also watched The Man in the High Castle and it's got a lot of potential. I hope it doesn't take a year or longer for amazon to release it (if they even choose to).

The Americans is back and it's still one of the best shows on tv. I thought The Asset was decent enough for me to finish the miniseries at least.

I don't know whether to watch Banshee one episode a week as it comes out or binge it all at the end. I love binging on these twelve episodes a season shows. I pick up a lot more and it's more forgivable towards a single shitty episode.

As far as I know,

Blow up = it's gonna be really popular really quickly

Blow = it's shit

Got this on my watchlist in Amazon. I'm a sucker for the historical what-if premise.

lol how epic was the Burton v Nola.... the ending of that fight is something you see as a fatality from Mortal Kombat

Amazon has picked up The Man in the High Castle. No idea when it'll be released but at least it's coming.

GOAT show, so *bleep* GOAT

They removed that weird camera stuff they tried last season too mostly, which is a nice touch.

Yeah, I started watching when the third or fourth season was airing. I binged on the seasons I had missed and kept up with it till the end.

That fourth season episode where the patient mirrors the dominant personality is my favorite.

You haven't watched it yet? Bruh, get it sorted.

I had a similar reaction to that chap, Jonathan.

That was an...interesting...finish to the episode to say the least.

Made me remember that everything we're seeing about Capt. Flint's past is creative license on the show as Stevenson never revealed much about who he was before he became a pirate.
