Quarry is great, apart from Quarry

... and his wife .

Great visuals, great cast, decent story, apart from the Quarry character and his wife .
Their scenes ruin the show, all of them .

Watching two snivelling losers, played by mediocre actors, in endless scenes about their relationship, it's just tiring .
The guy can grow facial hair, the girl has breasts, that's about the extent of their contribution to the show .

What a waste of an otherwise brilliant cast and atmospheric film making .

Gotta disagree.... I think the show is disappointing. Plot is moving very slow and nothing is happening. The only great character is Dewey imo. I wish the show would pick it up.

Then why do you 2 continue to watch if it doesn't meet your lofty standards?

Ppl can watch a show and still have an opinion of not liking it. It's called a "vested interest" Why do fanboys like you want us all to sing the same tune like some sunday choir. And the show is moving at a snails pace for the record!

So you would have someone to leave smartass responses to.

Walter White was incompetent in the first few episodes of that show. Let's see as to how the couple evolve. They are going through shock after disorientating shock so far.

It was pretty slow the first episodes so slow i had to watch them again as i fell asleep in both of them, but the last 2 episodes seem a bit better Quarry and his wife for me is the best part of the show, ill keep watching it but im the sort of person even if i find the show crap ill still watch it just too see how it ends.

So you don't give a rat's ass about them or their relationship. That's not bad acting. That's you not liking their characters. There's not a bad actor on the show.

Disagree on the wife but am somewhat in agreement on Quarry/Mac. LMG is a decent actor but feels a little miscast to me. I mean, he's got the 70s look and the swimmer build down fine, but I really think it is the accent and whatnot. I really enjoy the show but laugh at Quarry every so often.

This is how I feel. Right on the money. I think the actress playing the wife is fantastic. I think Quarry could use a stronger male lead, though.

I find the actor playing Quarry to be overwhelming as well.

It's that man again!!
