Just finished season 2 and was pleasantly surprised. Deals with an Italian crime family and they snuck in some scenes in homage to the Godfather.

Might have to do a re-watch of season 1 and 2 back to back to see which I liked best, but I'm leaning toward season 1 as the better of the two.

2 eps left and I'm digging it. Lots less goofiness, but still some crazy antics with multiple moving pieces.

Hate the binge model for this good of a show.

You don't have to binge, you can space out the episodes as you wish.

The season finale was insane!! I am not happy about waiting an undetermined period of time for season 3.

Yes, if they release it at once you have to watch it all at once. It’s in the TOS of Netflix.



I’m just saying shows generate more & better word-of-mouth when they release weekly.

I’ve chosen to space out viewing, but within a week‘s time or so it’s already watched. Instead of 8 to 10 weeks.

At first I didn't like that they omitted all of the humor from the show. I also thought that it was a bit boring for the first few episodes, but it gets better and better towards the end. I like the evolution of the Duke from reluctant gangster to all out Scarface level bad guy. I miss Freddie though. He cracked me up and every time he was on screen in the first season it was gold. What happened to him in the last episode of s2....wasn't funny.

I rewatched the miniseries Gold on Prime (Masterpiece) and noticed a younger Fredward in it. Similar sense of humor (kinda) in a generally serious saga. He’s great. Need to IMDB what else he’s been in

Just finished this over the weekend. Really good season. The finale was crazy with Freddy.

This is what the wife and I normally do. One or two episodes at a time, maximum, with whatever show we're watching.

A few episodes in, I was thinking I need to rewatch S1 because I’ve forgotten too much. But then I couldn’t stop watching as I got to the last few episodes. Now I’m really looking forward to watching both seasons again. Could’ve used more Freddy for sure, but S2 really elevated this show significantly for me. On par with Mobland.

The sad part is you burn through 8 episodes so fast then nothing. Gotta wait. S2 is really good, more of a Godfather feel. S1 was fun I did a rewatch, some wild arse shite in S1

S2 was great but they did drastically change the tone. Much more dramatic and much darker

I think the ending of S2 set up more Freddy going forward.

I was really hoping the whole Freddy/Gospel John thing was going to carry into next season.

Unfortunately the actor for Freddy claims he is not in S3 at all

Well that's disappointing. He was the highlight of S1.

Can never unsee The Laughing Storm as a coked up clucking chicken.

Yes, I liked him. More in S1 than 2. Not too upset his character is gone though.

Just finished - that ending was insane.

Season 3 is going to be wild. Not sure if they continue with Eddie going off the deep end or if he pulls it back
