    For anyone who gets onto Amazon chat to change to the UK streaming, be sure to let them know how disappointed you were to have the crappy Irish films for so long, that you felt the service was wasted. They should be happy to offer you three months worth of refunds.

    Season 5 by a good distance the best overall season imo.

    In some of the other seasons the supporting plot-lines (there is always a main plot, a sub-plot and then even a partner sub-plot) have been fair to poor but it's all really well balanced in season 5.

    No it's crap if you didn't like season 1 you are best off finding something else to watch.

    I just got off Live Chat and asked them to change my location to UK. I had my Revolut card set up as default card and Parcel Motel address. Took 2 minutes and I am switched over now, Season 5 ready and waiting

    No. I initially gave them my Parcel Motel address when they asked for the billing address but they said that didn’t match, so I just gave them my normal address and they switched no problem

    Also just to add I accessed Chat through the help section on Primevideo.com as I couldn’t find a chat option on the Amazon.co.uk

    leaves something like that totally over-rated "Line of duty" in the dust.

    The first two seasons of Bosch cost $100m to make, probably equivalent to the BBC's entire drama budget per year. Not really fair to compare the two.

    Bosch is not a big budget show by any means by American standards.

    So I think the two can be compared.

    There is so much hyperbole around line of duty really.. Totally over- rated.

    Probably because it's on ota tv

    Ok then, as I said, season 5 for me by a good distance the best season except maybe
    Harry's killcount in the last couple of episodes is a little too badass

    Typed tags in manually as on mobile but there was a slash character error - worked on mobile but not on pc

    They show up ok on my phone

    The backslash was the wrong way as the \ is on same screen as [ so used that instead of / which is on another screen in android mobile keyboard

    Fixed it.

    Now the person who quoted the spoiler error should fix it.

    Interesting quote from the New York Times.

    Very true.

    “Bosch” is an increasingly rare commodity in a time when genre dramas will resort to any kind of high-concept trickery to stand out. It doesn’t withhold information to create false tension, or play games with point of view, or arbitrarily ratchet the pace up and down. It just puts one foot in front of the other and trusts its audience to follow along. ...

    she is 5'8 so tall enough for a girl yes.

    didn't find her half as annoying this year as she didn't have to play the angsted teenager thing anymore.

    indeed. best tv that I've since in a while. Its straightforwardness was refreshing and very well executed.

    too many badly done "up-its-own-arse" shows and people buying into it all going around the last while. (e.g. true detective season 3!)

    I just finished it and man that was damn fine tv.

    Bosch is such a great character and a bad ass tbh. This is what I love about this tv show, the characters are great and the story telling is superb.

    I just find it so witty and funny as well.

    What made my laugh was:
    When Barrel was supposed to be retiring but changed his mind and told no one because he wanted the party and the nice Apple Watch
    Then Crate found out and the look on his face, priceless

    That was great! Love how things just unwind.

    I like how the criminals are not showcase villains, just normal lowlifes that cross paths with the police.
    Really worried for J Edgar

    Think it might be time for a Southland rewatch to fill the void...

    I've saw this on Amazon a few times and never actually watched it. I've read a lot of the books, so I get what Bosch is supposed to be.

    Is it your usual cheesy American police show, with regular shoot outs and talk about heroes and giving everything up for the job yada yada yada? Or have they actually managed to take the books and make a TV show of similar quality?

    Dunno about the books but its not your usual police procedural. Its fairly gritty and despondent about some bits. If you like Southland you'd like Bosch.
