I started Barry a few nights ago. I'm 6 episodes in and enjoying it so far. Stephen Root is such a great actor and the guy is constantly working.

My wife and I loved season one of Flight Attendant. We got to episode 2 or 3 of S2 and I’m just remembering we stopped watching. Maybe should have just been a mini-series?

Yeah, I didn't think S1 warranted a S2. But since they were doing it, I wanted to check it out. Looks like it can wait.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I agree. You said that back during S1 and I thought it was a great idea.

i think they said that was the worst ending ever. Even the showrunner said something like I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT!!

I watched the pilot and loved it. Wife wasn't into it so I let it go. Has it ended yet? Did it end strong? If it's done and has great reviews I'll give it another shot.
I think S4 is the final season.

I adore the show. There are definitely peaks and valleys but overall the show is outstanding. I've only watched the first two eps of S4 and so far I fucking love it. Jodie Comer is a revelation. I don't understand how she isn't literally the biggest star on the planet. She's so goddamn great.

S2 was a mess from the outset but yeah it really goes bananas near the end. Not a show that should have been renewed and it shows.

S4 of Killing Eve was hands down one of the worst seasons of television I've ever seen. I regret every second I spent watching it, I audibly groaned through at least 10 entire minutes of it. It is dogshit. If you feel compelled, I would watch the first season, maybe the second, and end there.

The first two episodes of Killing Eve S4 are just great. Comer in top form. There is definitely a drop after those two. But it's far from one of the worst seasons of TV I've ever seen. Still, I do want it to be better. I've only got the finale left.

The first two episodes feature multiple scenes of Jodie Comer as Villanelle talking to Jodie Comer as drag queen Jesus. It was unbearable.

Paper Girls is on Prime today.
Its one of the greatest comics of the last years and of course, the series wont do any justice to the original material, but ill check it out.
