LIMITED SERIES & MINI-SERIES
1 Attachment(s)
This Hulu show is quite good though the premise is preposterous. Two 33 year olds portray themselves as middle schoolers in 7th grade & relive the agonies & ecstacies of that time. The premise actually works & the only reason I bailed out is because I didn’t attend an American middle school so it’s hard for me to relate.

Four-parter from the BBC. Hugh Laurie carried this entire thing. Bit of a hot mess with a ton crammed into roughly 4 hours. A cast of thousands with dozens of subplots. It ended with the potential for a second season, but I will skip that. |

Just bought the dvd of this so I can watch it again. Very good limited series. |
I'm surprised to see you liked that, @Stirchley. I thnk I'm right in saying there's another series of that coming.

This is a fantastic series starring Riz Ahmed & John Turturro. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/...zOTE@._V1_.jpg |

I don't know if you know but she directed and starred in a film called Rare Beasts, which sounds quite good and in a similar vein. |

So disappointing. Wanted so much to like this as I’m a huge fan of Jean Smart. Trying so hard to be funny, but not funny at all. And don’t get me started on her drippy co-star. Beyond blah. Watched 3 episodes, but it’s not really my cuppa tea. The two leads are excellent though & the show is well-produced. I know @AgrippinaX likes this actress, but don’t know if she’s seen the show. |

New 4-parter on HBO based on a true story, but, strangely, playing as somewhat of a black comedy. Rather good & the two leads are, of course, fantastic together. |
Re: LIMITED SERIES & MINI-SERIES
I think it's such a bizzare story (bizzare in it's banality not the crime itself) that black comedy is really the only way to go and tell the story. Otherwise it'd have to be an arthouse thing with nothing happening, a crime and then nothing happening again for decades.

I'll watch anything that Thewlis is in. He, along with Mark Rylance and Anthony Hopkins, are my favorite Brit actors. Hopkins and also Colman were stunning in The Father (2020). |

But if that's not what happens or how you see it then that's fair enough. I disagree but I understand why you'd think that. I mean, it was her parents they killed. I don't know if she had siblings or not but, if not, everyone else will probably be dead as well as...

The crime was only discovered because they kept claiming their benefits and when the father was/would've been 100 they wanted to actually see him and they left the country

Watched all four episodes of Landscapers. Although the true crime story itself was a foregone conclusion, because of those who haven't seen the entire miniseries, I won't comment on the particulars of the path the series took.
In the main I really enjoyed it. As mentioned above, the acting was superb. The first episode was a little strange, but fairly straightforward and fascinating. At the start of the second episode onward, it was pretty heavy art-house, although it never remained full on into the absurd or surreal, but rather folded in different aspects of the story and illustrated the way the principals may have seen it. The story line, cinematography, and editing were fresh and absorbing. Advertised as a black comedy, IMO there were very few examples of comedy-- black or otherwise. The title itself was certainly a bit of gallows humor, yet there was far more fantasy in the production than there was humor. The production within a production portions were surprising yet digestible. It seemed to pretty well cozy up to the real life story, although the financial motive for the crimes was not really emphasized. The writers and director certainly came up with an interesting approach to telling the story, and the memorable acting took it over the finish line. |
⬆️ Wonder how he got to see all 4 episodes when only one has dropped on HBOMax so far. One drops every Monday evening.

Watched it via Sky Atlantic from the UK.

Finished it. Very strange & a good amount of effort was put into this 4-parter based on a rather slim true story. But, whatever. |

Mindless reality show, but I enjoy watching people who are unlike myself. Seems okay, but not my cuppa tea. Bailed out of the pilot. |
I'm thinking mostly of @Stirchley but others may also enjoy this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDkh-GK1G_g A Very British Scandal I thought it was OK, but I really expected more... Dirt? Scandalous behaviour? Nastiness? Something. It just felt underwhelming to me, but in terms of how it's made and the acting it's first class. I don't know if it's the treatment or the story itself which I have a problem with? |

Watched a few of these on Hulu. “Adventurers” who put themselves in the most ridiculously dangerous situations & then jeopardize the lives of their rescuers. And so many of them (mostly men) brag at how their near-death experience has only made them want to have more “adventures”. :rolleyes: |

Re: LIMITED SERIES & MINI-SERIES
So looking forward to Inventing Anna on Netflix & the show is horrible. It’s a true story of swindler Anna Delvey, but the series put the emphasis on the reporter who wrote the original story. In other words, they switched the rôles. Julia Garner did a good job as Delvey, but the series sucks. So disappointing. What was Shonda Rhimes the show runner thinking? :mad:

Loved this 10-parter on Netflix. Was so sorry when it was over. Margaret Qualley is a terrific young actor. Very impressive. The story unfolded slowly & unhurriedly. One really felt for all the people involved no matter how dysfunctional. #domestic abuse #verbalabuse #spousalabuse #homelessness |

There are other reasons not to like this show (that accent, for one thing--although I heard from a friend who's listened to the real Anna in interviews that Garner's accent is what Anna really sounds like... yeesh!), but the way they handled telling the story wasn't a deal breaker for me. (Plus, I just enjoy any stories that have writers in them.) ;) |

A nice way to control the narrative a little bit. Also, I'm guessing they knew far more about Vivien Kent (actual name Jessica something-or-other) than we'll ever really know about Anna Sorokin/Delvey. So there was naturally more material to work with there. And the journalist's own sketchy background and impending motherhood added a sort of pathos it might not otherwise have had. It gave us that connection between a sympathetic writer interviewing Anna and wanting to see her as real, broken, tragic figure and Anna herself, who made that connection hard for Vivien to establish.

And I was never sure if it was Garner's acting that made me feel that way or the situation itself. Garner is terrific in Ozark & I love her movie “The Assistant”. |

Much to my amazement, I loved this mini-series on Hulu. Lily James unrecognizable as Pamela Anderson & Sebastian Stan brilliant as Tommy Lee, the drummer from Motley Crue. Seth Rogen also excellent in his rôle.
Loads of fun watching this nuttiness. |
I have to admit, I'm surprised you liked that too, @Stirchley. Although, as I've not seen it, I might be unfairly judging it. I had no interest in watching it at all, but then I saw that scene in the bathroom with TL talking to 'himself' on Gogglebox (UK tv show) and thought 'y'know what? Maybe it could be worth watching' My sister felt (and had) the opposite reaction. :D

And anyone who spends 4 hours in hair, etc. & then has to learn “American” deserves kudos for her hard work: Lily James. Give it a shot. :) |

Excellent true-story mini-series. Elle Fanning really good. Chloë Sevigny too. I question the taste levels here though in making a re-enactment, in essence, of a story where all the players except the boy who killed himself are all alive. Can’t imagine his mother watching this show & seeing herself as depicted by Sevigny. Strange indeed. |

I think Andrew Garfield is doing some interesting stuff of late. I barely made it through the pilot & wanted to bail out at least 3 times from the entire show. It did bog down in the weeds a few times & it could be shorter. But, I persevered & I think it got better as it went along. Garfield definitely kept the whole thing going. What impressed me so much is actors who had hardly a thing to do early on & who developed into a major role as the show progressed. |

The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco, 2018 Jean (Julie Graham) and Millie (Rachael Stirling) are a decade out of their work as code-breakers during WW2. When they realize that the murder of one of their colleagues during the war seems to be connected to a series of murders in America, they head to San Francisco. There they meet Iris (Crystal Balint) and Hailey (Chanelle Peloso), kindred spirits who help them to investigate the murders and other crimes. I was a fan of the first season of The Bletchley Circle back when it came out in 2012. I really enjoy codebreaking, mystery-type stuff. Like, give me a scene of people poring over bus schedules to connect them to murder sites any day. Unfortunately, the four mysteries (each taking part over two 45-minute episodes) here are really not very well written. One of them has a conclusion that is so far-fetched it made me feel a kind of contempt for the writing. The others aren't as bad, but they often depend on way too much coincidence. The stories also don't do a great job of developing the characters themselves. The one that maybe comes closest is an episode involving gay men being attacked, which forces the character of Hailey to grapple with her own sexuality and the pressure---including from her friends---to keep it concealed. But even this storyline feels only partly developed. This episode does feature some of the more fun code stuff---involving different ciphers and newspaper ads--but it just doesn't click. The acting is okay, but the writing is overly broad and it sometimes has that feeling of actors having to fight against their lines to make the dialogue feel at all natural. Some of the actors really grapple with doing American accents, and there are a few actors who end up doing that British thing where they somehow manage to have a Texas accent and a New York accent at the same time. Okay, but not more than okay. |

Overly long (almost 7 hours) and very repetitive. Wash, rinse, spin, wash, rinse, spin …
Naomi Watts & Bobby Cannavale both excellent & Mia Farrow is scary as a weird neighbor. In the pilot, there was an amusing homage to Tony Soprano when Bobby Cannavale shlepps down his driveway in his bathrobe to fetch the newspaper. |

I watch a lot of limited series. Some very good ones are below:
The Night Of (crime drama) The Queen's Gambit (chess and addiction drama) Making a Murderer (documentary. Season 1. I didn't really feel like Season 2 matched the quality of Season 1) The StairCase (documentary. This is much better than the HBO fictionalized series version) Dope Sick (fictionalized, starring Michael Keaton, about the opioid crisis) Unbelievable (Netflix show about the pursuit of a serial rapist) The Looming Tower (very interesting fact-based drama about the failures of the CIA/FBI, well before the 9/11 attacks Maid (a show I would not typically watch that ended up being much better than I thought it was going to be, and very relatable) The Honourable Woman (spy thriller genre, set around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) The Night Manager (spy thriller genre) American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson (fictionalized) American Crime Story: The Assassination of Giani Versace (fictionalized) |

Cheers to @AKA23 for suggesting The Looming Tower (2018). I hadn't heard of it, so I fired it up, and am enjoying it, most especially Bill Camp's work playing Robert Chesney, a wizened FBI agent.
It's also Jeff Daniels' most impressive acting that I can recall. The story, of course, is hokum, but as a production it keeps up the intrigue and tension for the viewer. Also the cinematography is first rate. All told, a very nicely done series. |
