NFT: Anyone check out Gangs of London on AMC?

j_rud : 4/13/2021 9:01 pm
Came out in England last April, recently began airing on AMC. Created by Gareth Evans (The Raid). I dont think a show has hooked me that hard and fast since the premiere of Breaking Bad. Anyone else?
Yea this was

One of my fave shows. I watched season 1 twice through. Now just waiting for season 2 to drop
Yup, I’m a big Evans fan

and watched it late last year. Best show of 2020 for me along with Ted Lasso.

Just wait until the big shootout - there’s 2 great ones but the later is essentially from a blockbuster movie. The action is incredible.

Side note, after watching the season if love for the actor playing Elliot to be the new James Bond.

Where can I stream the whole season? Love that idea for Bond too.
AMC+

This aint good. Im usually in bed by 10 to be up by 4. I can see this being a binge.
That’s weird  
UConn4523 : 4/13/2021 9:22 pm : link
I just checked and they are all there. I do have a subscription still so maybe that’s why, but initially had all of them in my trial.
That’s good you found it  
UConn4523 : 4/13/2021 9:23 pm : link
I wouldn’t binge, watch 1-2 per night and let it last the week. The episodes have no downtime, it’s basically balls to the wall the entire season.

Yes, thank you j_rud for posting this. I started watching last night, and I'm hooked. Unfortunately for me I fell asleep about 40 minutes into episode 1, but I'm watching tonight.
Started watching based on this thread.

That bar fight scene in the pilot was amazing.

I feel like they are going to be talking about Ted Lasso for a long time. I'm not sure a show had such a positive emotional value add to a year that desperately needed it for many.
I am generally not a Sudekis fan  
UConn4523 : 4/16/2021 11:53 am : link
but his Ted Lasso is one of the best TV characters of all time and that's after just 1 season. It is a tremendous show, and the supporting cast from top to bottom has their own version of uniqueness and likability.

The pre-game speech from Nate? Fucking gold.
