I'll watch it tonight, but only because I'm up anyway. |

There was a character transformation about 2/3rds of the way-in which I am still struggling to accept, but otherwise I have loved Gomorrah. Did about five episodes in three days which is the measure for me.
Il Capo dei Capi is better I think. Highly recommended.
Watched Il Capo dei Capi this week off the back of this. Not sure I agree it is as good as Gomorrah but pretty good nevertheless I'm into the old school Sicilian Cosa Nostra back story. I was half-way through reading the book that inspires the film and was starting to get bogged down, thinking how great if they made a TV version! What about that Gomorrah ending though? Wow. And I have now forgotten about that character transformation and bought in to the rebirth. |

I'm quite enjoying Storage Hunters and Million Dollar Listing NYC at the moment  Nothing to discuss about them, but they make me laugh. I'll get my coat....... |

Last episode, or series as a whole? I've only watched the first one, but not hearing great things overall. |

They've gone beserk for a few episodes, and it's like someone has said 'that'll do', after writing the last. |

I wasn't disappointed as such. It was fairly low key for sure and I had figured out the 'twist' a couple of weeks ago but I thought it wrapped it all up fairly well and there were some good parts in there that paralleled other earlier scenes in particular the Capone scene with his son. |

I didn't figure out the twist but now realise why they needed such a gap in the timeline between seasons 4 & 5. |

That was a great scene. I really like Stephen Graham, and think he's very underrated. |

Honestly, I didn't think Kathy Bates' accent in American Horror Story could get any worse, but she was absolutely terrible this week.
When in conversation with the chap with the terrible posh English accent, that would normally be distractingly bad, she made his sound passable.
Surely someone in the cast or crew could have pointed out how ridiculous she sounded and maybe try something else.

They've gone beserk for a few episodes, and it's like someone has said 'that'll do', after writing the last. I didn't really enjoy the last series, just seemed so detached from the previous series with the 7 year gap. Producers were like ok we had enough now, lets just kill 'em all off. Love Stephen Graham. I'm sure I read somewhere when he first got offered the part he didn't even know what it was. When asked why he accepted it, he said something along the lines of It's Scorsese! |
