Netflix:The Beast In Me

Post by daft twat »

Jonathan Rhys. Claire Danes.
I’m 2 episodes into this. I’m reminded that The Americans is the most underrated show of all time.

I saw a brief teaser for it and felt like Claire Danes was just playing Carrie from Homeland again. Is she?

And yes, The Americans kicks ass.

this title sounds more like a pornographic video!

"do you have a beast in you?"

"no"

3 eps in and we’re really enjoying it. I never watched Homeland so I couldn’t say. Ermantrout from Saul/Breaking Bad is also in this. That’s a draw for me.

Yeah, it was fine. A little too contrived at the end. Matthew Rhys was a lot of fun, though.

This thing fell off a cliff.

The first half is interesting, compelling and engaging even! But ultimately it just doesn't succeed.
