I'm a Winslet fan but is that series worth watching? Seems like it ...

Is it worth watching? Seriously? It's excellent.

That ep was crazy, but as a whole, that series is getting seriously overrated. It reminds me a ton of "The Undoing" last year - Nicole Kidman's performance was just ... weird and off. Winslet is working so hard to seem exhausted and put-upon and frumpy as balls that it doesn't feel lived in at all. The guy who played Colin was great, especially in that scene at the bar where he was drunk. Overall it's worth watching, and it's mostly exciting to see how they get to the end, but there is a whole lot of filler which isn't great. It's a real tortured caricature of "working-class people" that is bursting at the seams with the effort to appear "naturalistic."

I'll just comment on two things here...
Evan Peters' acting in that bar scene was incredible. Possibly best drunk acting ever.
I agree there was some filler.
Otherwise I loved it and dont share in the rest of your feelings about it lol.
This. That. Whatever. I thought the same thing, it was amazing.
Terrible post.
There's always some filler, but this was at least quality filler. I don't know anything about The Undoing but this show reminded me a lot of Broadchurch, which is one of the best things I've ever seen on television.

Colm Feore is great as the Lord Marshal in Chronicles of Riddick. So there's that.

Reminded me more of both the movie Mystic River and the show The Killing.

It was nowhere NEAR the level of "The Killing." All I'm saying is that if that is considered "great," we are in serious deep trouble.

Watch Mystic River. All-star cast, directed by Clint Eastwood, VERY similar plot.

I lied, we watched the final episode last night, she couldn't wait until Thursday.
My gf was able to piece everything together towards the beginning of the final episode. What a god damn roller coaster that was. There might have been one or two things that they dragged out, but I would have liked to have seen them tell Kenny everything that happened.

My guess is that it missed you. We got about 4 inches of rain in an hour or two. Got stuck out on the golf course got probably 30 minutes. Was wild.
I'd keep playing. I don't think the heavy stuff's going to come down for quite a while.
