Tina

Maybe it's because the show airs on TNT here?

Mi||iê Måë

Possibly, and it's not a Netflix Original for some but based on region it is, like for me it's listed as a Netflix Original.

Karma Police

Yeah, they most likely only have exclusive didstribution rights outide the US.

EPISODE 5: “Hildebrandt’s Starling

+What is your Favourite scene? Why?

The park bench scene with Laszlo telling Sara the story. It was so convincing.

+What is your Least Favourite scene? Why?

Really any scene with Captain Conners.

+What would you change about the story/plot/ending? Why?

Nothing really, the progression was good paced.

+What's one interesting thing you noticed while re-watching that you missed during your first watch? (If a re-watch)

Sara Howard has her insecurities it chooses to bench them in favour of standin up to Laszlo for his fake story on the park bench.

+Favourite character from the episode?

The boys aka mollies and their work with the group.

+Least favourite character?

Is it a surprise if I say Captain Conners,

+What did you think of the introduction to your favourite character from the episode?

Brave, unshaken.

+How did you feel about what transpired in the episode?

The revelations of the silver smiled character were intense.

+What would you rate this episode out of 5 ?



+Any other comments:

I liked the bravery Joseph showed in trying to work a sting operation.

EPISODE 6: “Ascension”

+What is your Favourite scene? Why?

When they’re all laid about in the Mollies den trying to catch the killer and the younger Molly is trying to teach Joseph the eye lash flicker trick.

+What is your Least Favourite scene? Why?

Really just a repeat of before, Captain Conners is the character that I love to hate!

+What would you change about the story/plot/ending? Why?

I dislike how Laszlo looks down on Sara because she’s a woman, would change that. Especially when he slaps her!

+What's one interesting thing you noticed while re-watching that you missed during your first watch? (If a re-watch)

Laszlo’s treatment of others is to deflect from his own insecurities.

+Favourite character from the episode?

Stevie and Joseph, the mollies in general, their involvement in the past two episodes was interesting and intense.

+Least favourite character?

CC..

+What did you think of the introduction to your favourite character from the episode?

Again, it’s intense and intense to see their way of life.

+How did you feel about what transpired in the episode?

Discovering that the silver smile is now been shot and killed was a great progression because their number one suspect is now gone, but murders still occur, as shown by closing scenes.
+What would you rate this episode out of 5 ?



+Any other comments:

I loved the fast paced rush and intensity of this episode, they were on a mission and had more purpose to each action.

I watched episodes 3 and 4 last week but hadn't had time to write down my thoughts.

I'm glad y'all are enjoying it

It's a great show, and there are more books in the series, so there could be more seasons!

Mi||iê Måë

Watching the next two episodes today sometime!

EDIT:

So I watched the next two episodes and rather than doing the in depth reviews I've been doing, I'm just going to sum up my thoughts.

I really l love this series, period. The acting is phenomenal the the depth of the characters gets better and better with how much more is revealed. The young boys and their roles is so intense too and really makes me wonder what it would have been like to live in that era with the limitations put on you through society and the class separations. Especially as hard as it was for women to really make a name for themselves!

Dakota does so well with the Sara Howard character in showing her astonishment at some of the depravity she is witness to but also her resiliance to each new encounter.

Very diverse set of characters in a fantastic tale of mayhem and murder!

How is everyone else who's watched or is watching going?

Phone posting is hard, because you can't edit your posts well! Look forward to your laptop version reviews!
