Adiwana: Lol here you go again trying to change the narrative. But am glad you agreed you exaggerated about his performances. And I don't think you really understand what making a cameo in a movie means but its all good. Well yes I mentioned homeland and a host of other series severally, I only mention Billions once. If you were paying a close enough attention that should have given a good enough hint but I won't dwell on that. And I never mentioned Blacklist so don't put words in my mouth. Thank you You are making it sound as if the series I have mentioned had only one main actors and actresses carrying it like Blacklist or House of cards. You seem to have missed the point of the banter. You clearly said Tom was the best thing on TV right now and only Jesse from BB came close. So I went on to list characters from selected series that I feel eclipse his acting. Well at least you agreed they did b4 trying to change the narrative so its cool. And here you go again trying to put words in my mouth. Maybe you should critically read my posts well enough next time before replying. I clearly said Tom has always been a good actor. For someone who understands English, that clearly means that I consider him to be a good actor, thats why I wasn't surprised as to how good he was in Ozark. I even went on to let you know that he has played a similar role, not exactly the same bipolar stuff but something similar in Banshee. Then I added I personally felt his performance in Banshee was better than his performance in Ozark. Now where did I discredit his performance? Rolls eyes*. Maybe you see Banshee then you will fully appreciate what I am saying he was gem there. OMG am laughing. You were the one that mentioned GOT first. You mentioned it in such away that made you sound like Julia was better than all the stars in GOT. And that was what I was trying to defend. Not that she wasn't good. I clearly said as much in previous post. But I still stand by what I said she isn't the 1st and won't be the last. Now to this I clearly stated why I mentioned one iconic characters in each of these series. If you can't understand that well I can't help you. Banshee for one had incredibly acting and directing, from Antony Starr as Lucas Hood, Tom pelphrey has Kunt, the iconic Hoon lee as Job, Ivana as Carrie and obviously Ulrich as Proctor. This isn't a series carried by one person. Since that's your new topic of argument. I don't even think you understand what good writing means though. Hint it isn't about the acting. Westworld is yet another series that isn't only carried by Delores. Homeland isn't a series carried by one person. I have already mentioned two people names from it that did very well. Heres another Robert Friend's performance in homeland earned him an Emmy nomination. And its not my fault you don't appreciate the incredible masterpiece that is homeland lol. Should we even talk about handmaid's tale? These are cohesive masterpieces. Enough said There you go again with the hyperbole. No! Many series don't lack cohesiveness, its better to say many series you have watched. Maybe actually check out some good series so you won't be sounding this way. Please read what I wrote here well before you reply. I don't like it when people put words in my mouth. |

Rita5: Now I understand why you didn't mention Claire Dane it would truly be unfair. And I didn't dismissed Brody, well maybe I did. Well it wasn't intentional, just wanted to get your views on Claire really. I have seen GOL. Its really good too. The violence is out of this world, I personally love the gunfights. Its a solid series. And about your views on Ozark, I understand, sometimes it happens to me too. Especially when I have watched alot of similar series prior. I guess you should just sum this one as one of those times. |

Adiwana: Dude you don't have to try so hard to sell Ozark to me. I like the series. But you clearly mentioned writing in your previous post. Now in your last paragraph your like movies are not judge by thrills and storylines. You do know how that looks right? If I may add you don't have the monopoly on what a movie should be judged on. Last time I checked there are awards for storytelling/writing. So don't try to direct anyone here on how they should judge a movie. I think you should read your previous post to see how you degraded a lot of good series. You claimed you were talking about only current series but you said clearly only Jesse came close to Ben. Now is breaking bad a current series? And so you know Ozark has been out for over a month so in real sense it isn't that current anymore. But it did came out around the time Homeland was winding up so it isn't out of place to compare both. Also Westworld only ended few weeks ago so its still fairly recent, So falls into your atm tag. And yeah Ozark has won awards and rightly so but so as many other series and so has many other directors. No one says don't hype a series. But when doing so at least for people like us who have watched really good series don't use absolutes. There are only few series that absolutes can be used on and thats breaking bad and Got. But its best not to use absolutes at all. By using absolute statements like no one comes close to Tom's performance at the moment you have essentially degraded the works of these fine actors you mentioned. Thats my only bone in this discussion, your use of absolute. It makes you sound like someone who just discovered a good series recently, which it doesn't seem you fall in that category. Lastly about Claire and Tom, theres no comparison. I was the one who brought up the comparison but Rita has shown me that it would be unfair to even begin to compare. And no Tom role wasn't a cameo please. He was a supporting actor. A cameo is a completely different thing. Now Ed shereen's role in GOT now thats a cameo. A cameo essentially doesn't affect the storyline in any real way, but Tom's character affected the storyline massively. Heck he played a major role in how the series progressed. So don't disrespect him by limiting his role to cameo. If you look at the casting for Ozark, Tom is listed has having a main role in the series. You can also check out Stan Lee's appearances in MCU movies before he died. Now that's a cameo. The point is there are many other series out there that are very good, just because you haven't see them doesn't mean they don't exist. So using absolutes is something you should try to avoid. I personally don't use absolutes anymore. I did before but we grow as we keep getting exposed to new things. Check out altered carbon. Fargo is amazing too, storywise and acting, Stranger things, Narcos, the haunting of hill house, dark, mindhunter, the punisher, mr robot, fringe, killing eve, legion, sense8, rectify and so many others. I do understand feeling so hype about a current series that we feel it's all that. But trust me it isn't. In Fargo you will find an incredible actress who can rival Julia's performance her name is Alison Tolman. There are great series out there so when I read your post of "no movie out there has better writing and directing than Ozark" I just feel angry for all these people who have given their sweat to bring incredible stories to life. |

jikins: Glad you like GOL |
Re: The Best TV Series Right Now.... by Rita5(f): 7:55am On Jun 05, 2020 |
jikins: I couldn't have said it any better myself, I love Fargo. While most people praise GOT and BB, I feel Fargo is right up there as one of the greats. Season 4 was meant to be out this year but coronavirus has delayed it . Hopefully it comes out soon. Oh Allison Tolman was incredible in s1 and also when she guest stared in s2. Was really hoping to see her again in s4 but alas she isn't coming back, yet |
Re: The Best TV Series Right Now.... by jikins(m): 8:10am On Jun 05, 2020 |
Rita5: Lol your right Fargo is right up there. I mean the casting has been top notch from day 1. Given the fact that they do change almost the entire cast every season and yet the series still manages to be this iconic. I have never seen a series take this long before a new season comes out. I mean the last season was back in 2017. This is 2020. Still we are still hype for a new one. I mean the acting is phenomenal but I feel the writers room is were all the real MVP for the series are found. Am a bit taken aback to see Chris Rock playing a main role, but given the history of Fargo am sure he and all the other casts will deliver. |

Vyzz:true blood is far better than vampire diaries... it's depicts what a vampire really is. vampire diaries na just for teenagers.... VD was interesting though...... but I didn't finish it.. I got fed up at season six.. they were just going merry-go-round like they don't know how to end the story.. I will choose Originals over VD anytime any day. the storyline was very much mature than VD... legacy na for kids or teenagers.. it's like the vampire diaries of this generation so I don't expect young adults to find it interesting as it's predecessor Originals.. I myself don't find it that amusing.. I just watch many of this series to pass time including the uninteresting ones... there was a time that I was fed up with all this new series that I had to go back to watching Smallville all over again... even this present day DC series no sweet reach Smallville... na Supergirl I hate pass.. that series na one Feministic series.... 2 Likes |

Re: The Best TV Series Right Now.... by Vyzz: 6:59pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
obentenyson: Yeah the originals is better that vampire diaries but vampire diaries can't be that bad. You are right, supergirl is the worst CW/DC series I have ever watched. I don't know who employed the writer |

unimagin: That you mentioned jack bauer means you be sabi person.Watch prison break,along with 24,those 2 are d best tvseries ever made.Watch narcos and narcos:mexico,OZ(old but very mad),strike back is good too,Power is good.money heist is okay too but not as good as people paint it to be |
Re: The Best TV Series Right Now.... by DSHADOWWALKER: 6:56pm On Jun 08, 2020 |
Rita5: Money heist ain't trash,though they should have ended it in season 3 or 4.GOT is very good,i think prison break and 24 are the only series i can rate above it.The gangs of London ehn i dont understand the hype,so overrated,average at best.Breaking bad too the pace is just too slow,i was planning on watching peaky blinders but with your comment,i might drop it |
Re: The Best TV Series Right Now.... by DSHADOWWALKER: 6:58pm On Jun 08, 2020 |
