Honestly whoever doesnt rate this series and plays it off as just a 'fanfare genre gimmick' is an idiot

It's brilliant. S3 is definitely on par with S1 or even better.

Killing off a character and showing them again in a trailer for the first time.

It's so normal these days. Doesn't get less annoying though.

Everyone knew he was alive. Which makes the ending to season 3 a mockery.

Let's see how they rehash the same storylines again.

Yeah everyone knew, but they could at least commit to the dumb bit.

Yea the real shock would have been him actually being dead dead.

But i suppose its a huge character.

anyone watching S4?

by Myesyats Thu Jun 02, 2022 10:24 pm

not yet, gotta be in the right frame of mind smoking

by RealGunner Fri Jun 03, 2022 5:15 pm

3 eps in and it's absolutely shit lol.

It improved a lot after episode 4 but man it's so so bloated. You could tell some of the character arcs were only there so they could keep the actors happy.

Hopefully volume 2 is faster paced

by McLewis Mon Jun 06, 2022 3:18 pm

Part 2 is going to be 2 very long episodes so that points to perhaps more bloat.

Personally, I didn't see too many issues with Part 1 myself. Lots of filler, but unlike typical filler, this stuff was at least somewhat engaging.

Must say that while I like the kids, I found seasons 2 and 3 politically questionable to the point of hating it

Not sure I'll waste any more time on it

please expand on that

The Cold War stuff would be my guess. It's the only blatantly political aspect of the show.

by BarrileteCosmico Mon Jun 06, 2022 11:33 pm

Every season has been worse than the last, to the point I'm pretty ambivalent on watching this one

by Vibe Fri Jul 12, 2024 10:02 pm

Pretty great show, just got into it

by Arquitecto Fri Jul 12, 2024 10:31 pm

It's absolutely fantastic I watch it with my fiancé and we discuss every scene on pause. I love it.

by Myesyats Sat Jul 13, 2024 2:04 pm

The show is even better in hindsight because quality nowadays seems like an afterthought

Really hard to find a good one this days which makes me revert to some old ones that I previously ignored

by Vibe Tue Jul 30, 2024 10:58 am

Wow, what a strong ending to season 4.

I see S4 was heavily criticized in this thread, it started average, but damn, what a finish.

I also didn't like the Russian ark at all though.

by Vibe Tue Jul 30, 2024 11:40 am

I guess I have to watch Dark now, mad reviews

by Myesyats Tue Jul 30, 2024 11:58 am

Dark is incredible but quite short, quality over quantity tho i guess

by Arquitecto Tue Jul 30, 2024 12:37 pm

From what I get Season 1 & 4 are the best and Ive seen quite a sample size of it. Cannot wait to watch it which won't be anytime soon but still

by Vibe Tue Jul 30, 2024 12:51 pm

No TV series should be longer than 3 seasons tbh, unless it's a sitcom or something.

It is very rare that quality is maintained for longer and you just get fed up with it.
