First episode gave me chills. Oba tears and weeping with that woman that keeps appearing to fuel vengeance and anger is her was absolutely spectacular.

I am in episode 4 now and I am not really feeling it like I felt it in episode one.maybe it’s because oba isn’t acting on impulse but dishing out this kumbaya vibe.
But I got disgusted towards the ending of the third episode. I felt like they didn’t think that part through . I mean the part where she goes threatening the president. I mean she can barely exercise her power across Lagos state but for some reason her power transcends over Lagos to the federal level to the point she was seen threatening the president.I mean the president is the most powerful man in the country ,Atleast that is a logical believe to the average thinking man. But for those of us with deeper thoughts and sense of reasoning we know they are cabals/groups that puts and remove any govt at the federal level across the globe. There is no way in hell oba is that person. She can barely control the street agbero in Lagos to be loyal to her but for some reason she is powerful enough to control the le the president that has total control over the entire military and defense network of this country .same with the financial fabric of the nation. He would end her in 2 minutes and nothing will happen.

Just imagine tinibu going to question or threaten buhari in Aso villa.He will be lucky if his cabals doesn’t behead him before living that premises. Only the cabals that puts buhari on sear can dictate how he would act and behave.The basically have the illegal right to threaten him and he won’t do shiit.

All in all Nse -ekpe- etim is the best act so far,followed by solasobowale, Toni tones, osas ighodaro, Efa iwara in that order.

I do agree with the bolded. The way she formed an alliance with Maka was too sudden without any foreshadowing. But with the flaws it was an upgrade compared to regular nollywood. There were some Glory moments. Like the protagonist having her younger self as an alter ego personality. The depicted how evil is more likely to conquer good in reality.

Ilovezzor:
This has to be the end of season 2

I sincerely thought Malcom would be killed!

Malcom X died in 1965. Season1 is set in 1963. Malcolm's death is still around the corner.

SPOILER ALERT
My favourite scene from the latest episode

Redemption1:
Guys kindly recommend any drug series, especially black or any gangster series



I've watched power, snowfall, queen of the south,top boy, the wire

Godfather of Harlem

Nairaland doesn't have a report button?

I always wondered if the black-white video tapes on Godfather of Harlem were real life recordings. I confirmed this when I saw the real Malcom X on the show.

The White Lotus
A blend of murder mystery and psychological thriller. Complex mixture of characters with ego complex and narcissist attitude. Fanatics of Succession and The undoing will love this.

StrafordSTONES:
Just finished seeing Castle Rock Season 1


The last series I saw some three months ago were "The Americans and Better Call Saul". On Sunday I decided to get back to seeing movie and needed something different (different plot, different genre considering I do mostly crimes, investigations/detective/Law and maybe action); so I stumbled on Castle Rock, checked review and saw it above 7 and here on Nairaland it's not really been talked about and I gave it a try.

Don't really know how to rate movies but this serie gave me all I wanted...it's a psychological thriller, and horror... basically thrilling and the best part is reviews say Season 2 is the best season. So I'm really happy I am getting to the peak of the thrills

I did try Castle Rock some time ago. Got tired after 2 episodes. But my taste of series has changed since then. I'm giving another go.

Umbrella Academy 7/10
Yeah I came to the party late. I loved how they introduced the main characters. Aidan Gallagher's acting was phenomenal considering he's just 17years. It's nice to see hollywood not use actors in their 20s play the role of teenagers.

Doom Patrol 8/10
Damn! This series took me by surprise. I wasn't expecting the psychological thriller it contained. The whole concept was exciting for me.

Gemineye:
Can u recommend another series like the bolded

Breaking bad has always been compared to Ozark for it's similar plot. Better Call Saul, Yellowstone and Snowfall are notable mentions.

Game of Thrones
Ozark
Better Call Saul
Watchmen
Dark
Succession
Penny Dreadful
The Boys
Lovecraft Country
God Father of Harlem
Supernatural
The Leftovers
The 100
Heroes
Mr Robot

I think my taste in Tv has changed since 2018 when I started actively watching Tv series. But these are the best I have seen so far.

pepemendy:
I could not watch better call Saul cause I already know the faith of all the characters, stopped at episode 5.
Aside that, BB is the best thing on tv but it takes patients for one to finally set into it.

If you use this as an excuse, you are really gonna miss alot. Better call saul has its own arc. One can easily see BB without having an idea of whats gonna happen in BCS.

Mandorland:
Pls d people that enjoy the handmaid tale series, why do you all like it because I find it boring....can someone like tell me what it's all about because I don't understand it...may be if som1 explains I will get motivated and watch it

The Handmaid's tale is set in a fictional dystopian place called Gilead (formerly in the united states). A viral disease has caused almost all women to become sterile(infertile). The last women with functional ovaries are captured and used as what they call "handmaid". These girls are forced to carry children for the families in the theocratic totalitarian government of Gilead.

Razzness:
people who say breaking bad is the best series ever are all depressed

It's okay to disagree with people's opinion but respect them.

pepemendy:

abduleez1:
Guess I missed this.

Where and when did you get this info?

one of those news that pops up on my browser

abduleez1:
Naa, the show is off completely.

The creative team decided that the story needs no further exploration. The writer(s) Misha Green and showrunner agreed to end it in season one.
It's not as if the streamer solely decided to axe it.


I still dey vex like this.

Jordan Peele said he had enough ideas to create multiple seasons of Lovecraft country. Misha Green said the same thing. The service decided to end the show for other reasons.

Spoilers
Boastful Loki, Boy Loki, Alligator Loki and Elderly Loki

Godfather of Harlem Season 2
This series doesn't have the popularity it deserves

Shadow and Bone 4/10
Good plot, bad acting, terrible script.

Faboosuarez:
To reunite the whole country cos the fold acts like a border

Thanks for this.

What is the cut off mark for uniport mbbs/dentistry

Uniport doesn't publish cut offs

Moneyboyz:
Who else noticed that every character in Invicible is a copy of DC character's, Shark Man, Darkwing, even this man trying to expand himself in episode 1 looks like Martian Manhunter justice League and many more like that.

Shouldn't there be some kind of lawsuit to amuse us or something?

There is no copyright infringement if you create characters that are parodies of the ones you just mentioned.

Faboosuarez:
Now first things first, I'll give accolades to whoever rewrote the series like shii is brilliant altho rushed but there were enjoyable moments. To fully grasp the series, u have to understand tha the series is based on two different  books, one a duology titled six of crows and the other a trilogy titled shadow and bone.

  The duology dealt with kaz brekker and his gang as dh were given an impossible heist but not like they were portrayed in the series tho while the trilogy dealt with the darkling and the sun summoner.

   The two books were combined as a whole for the series whereas in the books the characters from the two books never met, think of it as the old German Reich where there existed eastern and western German on the same land with the fold as the encapsulating border segregating em all.

  And I loved the fact that they televised nina and Mathias storyline instead of learning about it through convos and flashbacks. The whole synopsis is this "the fold needs to be destroyed, only someome who can summon light and manipulate it can, Noone has ever seen one, they are thought about as myths just like the stag and all

So I think watching it after this explanation should be straightforward

I'm just two episodes in. Without spoilers, why does the fold need be destroyed?

felixnkubi:
finished shadow and bones.
5/10... people on imdb seem to love it a lot tho, I did like the first four or so episodes but it got boring...
also there's a lot of plot armor, especially with the side characters, am still confused how in the finale all the bad guys died but none of the supposed good guys didn't... this show is nothing like GOT...
