It’s good. Should’ve been a movie rather than a drawn out series but worth a go. Lithgow and Bridges are both very good. Amy Brenneman is always perfectly fine doing her acting thing.

Gonna give this ago this evening. Looks half decent.
Cheers J. I will definitely check it out in that case. Hadn’t appreciated Lithgow was in at as well, so should be another factor to make it fairly solid.
The acting and the direction drive it. Worth a go and just two episodes left (seven in total) so not a big commitment. But too many scenes where it’s like, cool, Bridges likes his dogs and his dogs like him; oh, his relationship with his daughter is fraught. 20 years ago it’s an excellent movie like “The Fugitive” but that’s not what gets made anymore. All in all, by modern “prestige” TV standards it’s very good. I think you’ll like it. I’m enjoying it.

Enjoying, prison drama/serial killer yarn Blackbird on Apple TV. Good to see an excellent Ray Liotta mark his final appearance in style as the ailing father. Tarom Egerton and Greg Kinnear stand out too.
We Own This City was absolutely superb
Discovered there is a HBO documentary “The Slow Hustle” that covers the fall out from the events depicted in We Own This City.
Spoiler alert if you haven’t seen WOTC
jonattonyeah Lithgow
He ruins everything he’s in, he’s a truly awful actor!
Tez Maynard out of Sherwood, corra etc the black guy was a childhood friend of mine. Sat next to him for years at school. Klang.!

Done 5 episodes since Saturday. It ok, but a few things started to enjoy me. Just hope it all ties together at the end.
This is going to be one to watch apparently..
Australian special forces are already being held to account for it. One case inparticular. All special forces. I doubt if it will be much different a story back home.
Just revisited the episode of Barry with the Taekwondo family
Cankles-McJeggings
His daughter kicked their asses. Well funny.
‘Black bird’ on Apple tv Is getting well dark.
The two bits that made me laugh the most were the first kick when he put him through the cupboard door and the one that takes the pig out in the shop
