Anyone watching La Brea?

[TiredButDancing]

I've just finished and I have to say, it's one of those shows that has sucked me in while simultaneously annoying me intensely! . There's clearly an inexperienced/less talented writing team so weird gaps or odd conversations that just don't ring true, which on some episodes where particularly annoying. Plus....




Not really a spoiler as such but sort of so if you haven't finished, you might not want to know (although doesn't give actual details).....










The fact that NOTHING is resolved by the end of the first season. Literally NOTHING. A few revelations but nothing that actually intrinsically moves the story on?


Possibly just another sign of poor writing for a production with a somewhat limited budget and as it's got a season 2, it's possible they've decided it's worth investing in and will do more with but.... ARGH it's annoying!

I have watched two episodes so far, I think it is ok, a bit like Primeval

[TwoMonthsOff]

Is that on paramount ? Think I’ve seen trailers looks quite good….

[TiredButDancing]

Yes, Paramount. I have v mixed feelings. A lot of shows are better in the second season so I'm holding thumbs!

I've just started watching this and it is AMAZINGLY BAD but I love it!

Does anyone know why there are only 7 episodes of season 2 released? I think there are 11 overall?

DH has finished season 2 and said "It sort of improves"

The TV is near the dining room tables so I;ve been subjected to a lot of it .

Not my scene but I;m not a fan of fantasy or science fiction

I've seen all of it so far, and believe me, it doesn't get any better.
The number of times someone wanders off by themselves (and gets in trouble), the number of times Gavin promises to fix something (and then manages to overcome incredible odds), the awful writing and poor acting - yet I still watch it.
@OhVicIveFallen All episdes have definately aired but there was a midseason break with the season finishing in Feb this year.
