S3 - Slow Horses going down like a lead balloon.


Yuck, what a lame horrible this S3 has been, this latest season topped off by yet another lame-o fight scene where the good-guys are hopelessly outnumbered and yet kill scores of bad guys and of course save the day at the very last second.

I hate this lazy crap writing, even if I do wanna see the Kirsten Scott Thomas and Gary Oldman insult each other cleverly in that dry English manner.

I haven’t watched this season yet, I was waiting till the last episode aired, which appears to be today.

You didn’t like S02 either so it is not a surprise that you were disappointed by S03.

It's not me.
It's the way they greenlight series.
They work so hard on an original idea.
Then they want to amortize that work, the team, the fans
and they whip together another season where they
echo moments in the first and try to nostalgize
the fans into liking something that is just not
as good.

Fair enough. I liked the first two, and season three has also received high acclaim from critics. I'll be giving it a go.

reply

"High Acclaim"??? Critics are just paid commercials.
The first season was good. The second season was OK.
This season is just dumb.

reply

They were not going to kill off part of the main cast. It doesn't bother me.

reply

Yup, done with the series. There's plenty of other stuff. Also besides screen time.

reply

Ouch, I ended up liking that series' ending, or at least not thinking it was so bad.
