The Fall (contains spoilers)

[Fast90]

Have you seen it?

What did you think of it?

I’ve just finished the last episode of season 3 and am feeling very

About to start series 3 this weekend

Watched it all. Loved it. Struggling to find something similar now.

@AfterSchoolWorry have you tried Line of Duty?

@CaroleFuckingBaskin you’re in for a treat. Be careful on this thread though in case anyone posts any spoilers

Im on ep 4 of season 1. Usually I like dark stuff but finding it hard to watch.

I just finished series 2 tonight and will start series 3 tomorrow.

I am loving it. It’s very dark but also nuanced and clever. And I have a massive crush on Gillian Anderson.

Loved it, finished it and moved on to Line of Duty and finished that pretty quickly too. Going to try Paranoid this weekend as it sounds somewhat similar.

Honestly, I thought the first season was riveting but the last season was a bore. They dragged the same storyline out too much, the side stories were just lame filler too (the whole teenager thing.) Would have been much more enjoyable had they focused on a 2nd criminal instead.

So weird we have just finished it too.... loved it! A few bits I thought were strange, the fussing nurse in S3, Stella's dad issues. Very haunted by the wife and daughter scenes.

But agree that S3 (or some of it) was dragged out a bit.

The overuse of Gillian Anderson’s face close ups !! It got a bit silly really !
And the fussing nurse ! No way would he not have had an armed officer right next to him / outside ? And did she ever go off shift ?

I personally found it to be not my cup of tea I got sucked in and wanted to know what happened in the end so made my self watch it. I thought the fussing nurse was lining up to be another victim tbh.

Fucking terrifying!

Season 1&2 good. Season 3 a snore fest.

I watched it first time around so I can’t really remember it properly, but my abiding memory is of Gillian Anderson very annoyingly whispering her lines as the series went on.

Agree. First 2 seasons were excellent. Third very disappointing. There was an operation that seemed to be in real time! So dull.... Watching 'Surviving R Kelly' now, bit different!

I enjoyed it. But it did make out the everyone in Belfast had supermodel looks. It really doesn't.

Series 3 was so disappointing. Series 1 was absolutely amazing, but they couldn't keep the momentum going.

They should have only done S1 and S2.

I hated what they did to his wife and not knowing what happened - and where did her mum go?

@Brot64 is Paranoid a Netflix series?

@Fast90 yes it is on Netflix use to be on ITV I believe.

@RosieLemonade

Agree. Gillian Anderson was amazing.

Not similar but Snowpiercer on Netflix is amazing.

@ThePawtriarchy

I hated what they did to his wife and not knowing what happened - and where did her mum go?

Agree. They kind of just left that part of the story hanging. The last we saw of her was her attempted suicide and then forgotten about.

I agree with the posters saying that they didn’t accurately depict how secure his ICU experience would have been. There is no way on earth that he would have been left with a lone nurse by either investigators or in accordance with hospital policy.

Overall I was absolutely hooked but agree that the concept of series 3 was better than its execution.

What did everyone think about the way that it ended? I’ve got mixed feelings but I think that it was very effective in the way that the viewer was probably left feeling as dissatisfied at the outcome of the series as Stella was by the investigation
