Watched the first episode cos overall the series has had decent reviews, but the 2 main characters come across as so unpleasant that I just don't care what happens to them. Is it worth sticking with despite that ? (I kept watching Breaking Bad even though Walter was a cunt). Started watching it and gave up after 3 or 4 episodes , it wasn't bad , just didn't really grab me at the time Anybody watched Yellowstone with Kevin Costner ? Never heard of it until recently and it started in 2018 but very highly rated on IMDB Edited November 18, 2022 by Degsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again I'll say, Walter was only filling a niche left by prohibition. I know he did a few questionable things (poisoning the lad , and to a degree letting Jesses' girl choke on her vomit- but she had turned on Walter so, all's fair in the game IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeypig Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 @Boojum But unfortunately in the drug business, at that level it's be ruthless or be taken down. Yes he had an ego (don't we all!) but he knew he had to be ruthless or others would have fucked him over. Yes, he did a couple of civilians over, but the biggest cunt was Skylar IMO. She was happy to take the money now wasn't she. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but was he already a cunt or did he become one during his journey ? Would the same thing have happened to anybody else in those circumstances ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Badgeley Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Watched Jeffery Dahmer story. Not too bad but it really proves how utterly racist the filth are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted November 24, 2022 Author Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) Been watching One of Us is Lying. It looks like one of those American 'teen dramas' set in that strange American TV land where everyone is impossibly good looking and things like obesity and acne don't exist but it's actually a lot better than that.
