Saw the first episode this morning…really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the rest. Interesting to see the back story of Winston. Mel Gibson was good in the little bit he was in it so far.

No idea about the TV show but Christopher Walken was hilarious during this skit on SNL.

Mel Gibson plays ‘The Continental’?

Actually, my first thought upon seeing this title was even further back: the tune that Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers danced to.

Solid first episode, between this and Twisted Metal, Peacock is doing pretty good with original material.

It was damn good! Excited to see the rest of the season. Finally something with a bit of style. The John Wick "tone" has been translated well. The action was good, the blood surprisingly flowing, and the soundtrack and editing were ON POINT. They chose a great actor to play younger Winston. Something just a little reminiscent of his eyes to make you believe and he does a good job. Mel Gibson actually played a character. Down for it.

It's decent so far. Kind of an odd choice to cast Lord Farquaad as an assassin. But I recognized him immediately!

Looks good so far.

There were a few subtle hints that make me think there’s quite a bit more to the Winston/Wick relationship.

I watched John Wick 4 for the first time last night. Definitely the 2nd best JW flick. I’ll have to look for this show.

Very good. Hints on where famous sayings come from like I’ll be seeing you and soundtrack excellent. Acting not the best but very good start.

shite was rad. Winston’s brother looked like wick reincarnated when he was escaping the hotel.

Episode 2 is out and getting better on how the continental became under control of Winston and his sidekick Charon.

Loved the show. The soundtrack may be the best I’ve ever heard.
