Waking the Dead (2000)
Boyd is the just the worst
I seriously only have watched this show because I've watched pretty much every other British procedural. Peter Boyd is a boorish loudmouth ass who treats his colleagues like crap and is the definition of a horrible boss. Dr Grace Foley is perhaps even more disappointing because she puts up with him season in and season out: in the post MeToo era , writers would never get away with a female psychologist who essentially enables such toxic white male behavior. The plot lines are otherwise ok if you don't mind listening to Boyd bellowing and bullying his way through every episode. I find I can only take it in small doses.
Law & Order: Impossible Dream (2022)
Ugh
I have been so looking forward to the return of L&O and so far, the results are really disappointing. I agree with the reviewer who says there is too much superfluous dialogue: the scripts have been awful. Too melodramatic! The actors all seem like they're in a bad school play. I really hope the show returns to its gritty foundations and moves away from being a revamped version of SVU.
The Postcard Killings (2020)
Horrendous
Never read the book but I sincerely hope it was better than this film. Dialogue and acting were both just atrocious. Glad I watched it for free and didn't spend money on it.
Goliath (2016)
Not sure why everyone hates season 2
Season 2 is just as good as season 1 only it is set in a completely world. I suspect most people who've panned S2 have done so because they're not interested in the world of drugs, gangs, cartels and political corruption it depicts. Billy Bob Thornton is as good as ever as are the other actorrs and the writing.
