There's absolutely no reason why a show like this should take like 3 years per season

Slow Horses should be the standard

Season 1 was in 2024, so not too bad by todays standards. I think it's because Guy Ritchie needs to fit it into his schedule. He's a very busy director

Definitely too long between seasons.

I think they're a bit of an exception given they have strong written content to pull from, mostly practical effects, and it lends to being able to film back to back (worth noting they're only 6 episode seasons as well).

Also, I'm pretty sure that's Oldman's last project before retires and filming in London is convenient for a lot of that cast.

Finished episode htree last night. Wow, what a great show. Can't believe I hadn't watched this. But glad I did so I wasn't waiting three years in between seasons like you poor bastards.

I take back what I said about the brother. Freddie must be protected at all costs. Fredwick is an absolute treasure. In episode three when they were stealing the Lamborghini and his Mercedes wouldn't start and the black guy see's him and runs out tot he car so Fred pretends to be asleep as he's running up had me in tears That whole scene was great.

It's like the show is just little miniature Guy Ritchie movies which is incredible.

I will be highly disappointed if Eddie and Susie don't hook up.

I don't know if I can think of a show to compare it to. Peaky Blinders mixed with Sherlock maybe. With more comedy.

If you like Guy Ritchie movies like Snatch, Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, The Gentlemen (obviously), The Man From UNCLE.... you would like this. Feels just some of his great movies.

As someone who is: A) a huge Guy Ritchie fan, and B) prone to bingeing the shite out of a good series, I don’t know if this series is binge-able. And yet I’ve blown through it already

It’s phenomenal as a series. There tons of Snatch-magic along the way. Both halves. But holy shite does it take an insane number of detours and plot twists. All 16 episodes could easily be made into full length features with a few flourishes and some filler. If I had it to do over, I’d probably watch an episode a night, two at most

Just finished season 2 last night, and I definitely enjoyed it a lot.

It does take a lot twists and turns. It's almost as if the season is divided up into 2 or 3 mini-seasons with the plot focus of the first half of the season finalizing in episode 4 and then the plot of episode 5 shifting to the consequences of the 1st half of the season, and then episodes 6-8 being a different plot/storyline focus, with the season finale not having that much of a connection to the season opener from a plot standpoint.

But it's still a really good season and series overall. And there is still plenty of meat on the bone for season 3 to explore.
