The scenery and cinematography in Ragnarok is really great, I know I posted that before but its worth repeating.
We're about halfway through S2 now and the story is picking up nicely.
We watched the final ep of the show last night, it all wrapped up in 3 reasonably short series (6 eps each series, I think). Lady T found the ending really satisfying, I found it quite interesting and have been thinking about it this morning, so clearly it made an impact rather than being instantly forgotten.
Now we need to find a new thing to watch. I have to say I find something with many seasons to be a bit off putting and almost daunting, like when we see an 8-series show it feels like a big time commitment.
Things I've been enjoying lately:
- Last Kingdom: perhaps falls foul of too many series (there are 5), and it does get increasingly silly. But it also wraps up well and is very entertaining.
- Foundation: initially bewildering, but visually stunning and increasingly enjoyable.
- Hunters: tonally iffy, playing fast and loose with the holocaust, but I think its heart is in the right place. Each episode currently focussed on tracking and assassinating a different nazi in 70s America.
