I really wouldn't think much of that at all, trailer has given it all away aswell.

Slippin Jimmy · 10-10-2017 04:45PM

Trailers look good. I'll be giving this a watch.

Marje · 13-10-2017 08:31PM

On the 3rd episode and it's very good.

It's a while since I really liked a series which I didn't want to end.

Agent Coulson · 13-10-2017 08:33PM

Hoping we get all that bad weather on Sunday so I can sit in by the fire for the day and watch it.

Slydice · 13-10-2017 10:58PM

4 Episodes In after 1 night.

This show is good!

NOT FOR KIDS!

Slydice · 13-10-2017 11:23PM

oh, and as far as episode 4 goes..

my guess is that the wife did it in this latest case

Arghus · 14-10-2017 12:42AM

I'll give this a watch, even if I think it looks a tad obvious and familiar.

Patty O Furniture · 14-10-2017 12:48AM

I heard Maria mention it on TodayFM, btw how much is Netflix & did i hear there was an increase?

Skerries · 14-10-2017 04:51PM

anyone notice the cans of Big Red in episode 4 were modern with the ringless tab and the tapered top and bottom?

Slydice · 14-10-2017 05:04PM

Episode 8 and the show is really keeping my interest roughly at a level around or a bit more than the early episodes.

After that episode though, i'm starting to wonder if

something happened to Holden from before the show. The episode was focussed on him, stuff getting him down and then his actions against the principal at the end. There's two episodes left to be introducing this story development.

Marje · 14-10-2017 05:32PM

Just finished episode 8

If the principal is sacked, he might upgrade his tickling to something else.
I'm wondering about the cat which hasn't made an appearance but eats the tuna,
is there something more to this as they spent a few times on part of this story

Neames · 14-10-2017 06:29PM

4 episodes in and I think this is a great show.

Slydice · 14-10-2017 07:48PM

Just finished. Top series!

Well f**k me, that scene in the ICU... that moment.. after Kemper moves but before the hug

the tension and realisation of how trapped he is, the tense soundtrack in the background

I think I genuinely felt dread

Some directing to do that! :eek:

Also, with that ending, I'm guessing there's gonna be a second season and that guy we've been seeing is the guy they are going after.

Just checked how the series is scoring:
rotten tomatoes - critics: 96% (26 reviews) audience: 94% (186 ratings)
imdb: 9.1/10 (1,919 reviews)

Slydice · 14-10-2017 07:55PM

It's already renewed for a second season since April! :eek:
Netflix has renewed David Fincher thriller Mindhunter for a second season, before it even launches

Great ending to a great series. What to watch after that.

I saw on IMDb that it was renewed for 2nd series.

Holden could easily have made his end by Kemper hands. Think it's the first time I saw Holden really scared and hadn't a clue what to do. Anyone would have a panic attack after that.
ADT guy - guessing his crimes will be shown in series 2 and another guess, maybe Wendy Carr or someone we know as a potential prey for him

Four episodes in... absolutely loving it.

And because I like to spoil things for myself, I searched the suspicious security guy... this is him.

The only nitpick I have with the series is the location title cards. They're a bit too in-your-face. I mean, I do get the 70s aesthetic, but I cringe everytime they show up.

Rekop dog · 15-10-2017 10:47AM

This has series of the year vibes off it. Very engrossing.

Páidí Ó Sé is great in it too.

Basq · 15-10-2017 10:50AM

Only 2 episodes in.. taking it as slowly as possible.. but I reckon it could be the best original series Netflix has done yet.

Also, the music is great. Whoever made the decision to close the 2nd episode with Psycho Killer by Talking Heads.. genius!

the whole year inn · 15-10-2017 11:46AM

Really enjoying this.

Agent Coulson · 15-10-2017 02:22PM

Watched the first episode and it's off to a great start.

Had a look to see who is playing Debbie and found out she is Constable Benton Fraser daughter :eek:

JohnK · 15-10-2017 04:28PM

Another +1 from me, brilliant show. Put it on yesterday to see what all the fuss was about and finished the last episode a few minutes ago

Yggr of Asgard · 15-10-2017 05:41PM

So after reading this, I decided to give it a try and now I'm hooked on it.

Groff is doing an excellent job here, he always will be Jesse St. James to me, but this is showing how good of an actor he is.

Hmm...

On episode nine now and I think I may have jumped the "hype" gun.

I feel it's dragging towards the end. Filler episodes that are anime-worthy with little to no character development and falling in to the case-per-episode formula á la X Files.

For example,

Wendy being a lesbian. Does it matter? She could have just uprooted her life and decided to move without the break up that we weren't invested in before, nor afterwards.

I think I would have preferred if this series was just six or eight episodes.
