I've yet to check out the first episode, but is this show good so far?

Yup. Loving it so far. The action and humor isnt half bad.

Although I wish that they would pair it up with 24 so that I could watch them together.
Check it out when you get a chance.

 

[Dead Man]

Will watch for Curtis. Premise sounds kind of stupid though.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Watching the pilot now. Seems alright. Think it'll get a second season?

I saw the premiere ratings were absolutely godawful. But then this is summer, so who knows.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

"Brown is the new black."

Lol.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Okay, I really liked that ending.

 

[Dennis]

How is this show?

How are the ratings? Will it get cancelled?

 

[Gibbo]

Pretty solid show I think. Very dark as well... I was quite shocked when in ep 3

Spoiler

the kidnappers shot the dad, mum, And their little kid

Yeah, that was fucked. Didn't see that happening.

But man, this shoes is almost like The Following, the violence and death feels so damn cheap. I can't really sympathize with any of these people.

 

[Gibbo]

Yup show is officially fucked up. I felt a bit sick when Carlos started batting his therapist.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I quit watching half way through the third episode and put on the series premiere of Graceland instead.

I dunno, there's something way off about Gang Related.

 

[Mars477]

It's too loose and consequence free with its violence. None of the gang are good enough to make me think that that the violence they use (against complete innocents) can even remotely be considered the justified act of anybody who is not a complete sociopath. Main dude (I don't even remember his name) comes off as a sociopath or an entitled little douche for not immediately turning around and wiping out his adopted family. The only people who are remotely human enough to even make an impact are Tae and Vee, and even they are pretty shallow characters.

Guys I love this show. It's a great fun mindless hour of television each week. The cast is solid as well

 

[Exploratory]

This last episode was pretty good. Surprisingly since I've thought this show was pretty average.

Some straight GTA shit.

 

[Gibbo]

Think im back in. Acting on this show is pretty good tbh. Writing is somewhat believable as well. The last episode was tense as fuck.

 

[chris121580]

I thought it was a little strange Carlos got over his dad killing his best friend so quickly. It was weird they didn't even refer to it the entire episode.

I think that's the point of Carlos he's just a dumb ass hot head.

Basically he's there to cause trouble and fuck shit up for the family which ultimately cause their downfall.

 

[bodyboarder]

Things will start unraveling soon.

 

[Gibbo]

Lawyer chick is going to get killed isnt she? Which will set John Locke on a violent path which ends in a confrontation with lopez

 

[Ashhong]

Why couldn't there be this kind of love and exposure for Southland back in the day that show is so much better than this has been so far...

Erm its not getting alot of love from gaf as well. We are just 2 pages in. The show has developed a respectable following on fb though.

 

[Exploratory]

GAF has totally ignored this shows existence. Only 2 pages? Damn.

Its been getting a lot better though.

 

[chris121580]

Tonight's episode was fucking awesome! About time Javier took out that piece of shit

 

[Gibbo]

ok this show has just shot up to the top of my must watch list. Tonight's episode was fucking amazing. First 3/4 of the episode was pretty slow, but the pay off at the end was fantastic

 

[WesternHeretic]

Best episode yet.

 

[JaMarco]

This show has been amazing for me.

 

[RS4-]

Looks like I have to catch up; I think I skipped the last two eps.

Youre in for a treat. These past 2 episodes are the strongest this season

I only just ended up watching this weeks. Pretty good!

 

[Prologue]

Totally unexpected! Can't believe that happened.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Didn't know we had a thread for the show

Great so far. Really high quality compared to a lot of shows in their first season

 

[……forgetit]

Anyone else think Ryan was smacked with a stupid stick this week?

 

[Gibbo]

Holy shit- did not see that ending coming at all. The heartbreak on Javier's face at the end at Lopez's betrayal was hard to watch. Cliff Curtis is really owning the role

 

[Prologue]

doesn't look like the show is going to get renewed 0.80 rating last week.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Anyone else think Ryan was smacked with a stupid stick this week?

What do you mean? I didn't see many options for him, or do you mean he should of saw IA coming sooner and should of anticipated them wire tapping him?

 

[Gibbo]

Shit. To be honest, I don't see how they can drag the story past 1 season. The cat and mouse game will get tiring at some point.

One of the best surprises I have had in TV shows in a while. I wonder how they'll wrap it up then

With a cliffhanger, probably. TV, woo! :/

 

[WesternHeretic]

Then HBO picks it up and continues?

Shut up I can dream can't I?

[sammich]

I really like this show. It would suck if it got cancelled. When i first started watching the first thing that came to me was this should be on HBO or something. They cant show the violence or swearing or anything of that nature. Well, the crazy violence really surprised me and dont really care about the swearing as much considering what else is going on.

That last twist really got me though. But for some reason after seeing the preview it seems that in the end Ryan pretty much saves his life by putting him in jail and keeping him safe there.

Really hope it doesnt get cancelled.

Was an initial reaction, made more sense after thinking about it, either way I don't see Ryan living after what he pulled, he'll I half expect everyone to die if the show doesn't end in a cliffhanger

 

[Gibbo]

Dont let this get cancelled people

Totally agree. The show keeps you on the edge of your seat at all times especially when it comes to Ryan not getting found out

 

[Mindlog]

Just caught up after missing the past few weeks.
...


Nice. Didn't know this show was on the cancellation bubble. That's terrifying.

 

[Prologue]

Another surprising ending!

I didn't like how quick Acosta wanted to act though

 

[sarcastor]

i was thinking to myself how are they gonna keep Ryan hidden for multiple seasons.

I guess they won't have that problem anymore

Spoiler

chief's daughter is soooo gonna die

 

[SwiftDeath]

Well then some young lady is about to get a surprise visit by Uncle Tio
