I'm only about half through the first season, but poo poo...

I've heard they are going to make a US version, but they will have to tone it down so much. Can't believe this was on TV in the UK.

Anally. And the little boy comes in and catches them. The black dude pulls out and she shits on him.

Look at the thread title. I ain't never seen poo poo like this on TV before.

Brits are all about the quality over quantity.

On a serious note though, the fact that Utopia seasons one and two are only six episodes each means that nobody has any excuse not to watch them.

It makes me sad cause I got all hyped about Black Mirror and two entire seasons is like 6 episodes and then I laughed when I realized sherlock is like 9 episodes in total.

i liked hannibal maybe even loved hannibal but im not entirely sure it was good
it seemed like instead of seeing the characters do smart things either they do smart things offscreen or what amounts to just watching superpowers onscreen

like if in breaking bad they never showed walt doing anything or figuring anything out onscreen and later when jesse asks him how he did something walt is the one that goes "science yeah bitch!"

and sometimes i just didnt even like hearing will graham talk
and mason verger was my favorite character after hannibal and naked freddie lounds and hes being recast
i definitely liked the outfits food and mannerisms of all the bad people

Started out very interesting but turned into complete bullshit by the end of 1st season. I didn't even bother with the second, Jessica Hyde is the most obnoxiously retardedly annoying character I've ever seen, I don't unserstand why didn't they simply put a bullet in her instead of putting up with her crap.

It's because her pants are tighter than anyone expects and every time right before someone is going to shoot her they look at her pants and go geez.

It's pretty good and on Netflix. Episode two of each "season", aka the second out of the third episode is pretty so-so imo

Also I like Benedict Cumberbatch hail satan (havent seen the hobbit though so maybe he sucks now?)

The premise is a little dumb, but everyone should watch the first episode to see if it catches your fancy.

I am incredibly stupid
it did one too many "oh you thought they were a good guy well it turns out they were a bad guy pretending to be a good guy but wait they were actually good no wait they were bad" for my feeble brain to handle so i said gently caress this show it isn't worth it

it was pretty and had some interesting ideas but I felt no need to watch season 2 or ever watch it again
