Swoop? Get on it.
Downloaded and watched now.

It was intriguing enough to have me coming back for more tomorrow.

Watching Iron Fist, gets bad reviews but I'm liking it more than Luke Cage

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I'm not sure.
In what context?

As in will I be back for more or does it all feel a little try hard?

I will be back but the show feels like what it may lack in eloquence of story telling like say True Detective season 1 will make up for it with a sledge hammer approach.

Are you also assuming the main character was molested by her aunt?

It is of course possible that the sick sister is actually the Jessica Biel character and that will eventually be the reveal. :shock:

Haha! I didn't think any of those things!

I'll be back, but I don't know if I enjoyed it as much as the first one. I have no idea what I expect.

Anyone else watching this new series Manhunt:Unabomber?

Three episodes in and it's pretty damn good.

Where are you watching it?

I just watched the first episode of Mr Mercedes.

I'm not sure if I was more disturbed by the actions of a mass murderer or the relationship he has with his mother.....

Mr Mercedes sounds like something I'll enjoy.

If you're a fan of David Fincher then this is one to keep an eye out for come October.

Oh, I torrent. I torrent every day. Just wondered if it was on Foxtel or Netflix as well.

I think you'll like Mr Mercedes.

And yep, really looking forward to Mindhunter. Looks great.
