Taylor Sheridan's new show starring Saldana along with an all star cast including Michael Kelly, Morgan Freeman, Nicole Kidman.
Starts July 23th.
It feels a bit weird they are making the bad guy the biggest cause of all wars /terrorism in Middle East. And this is coming from Americans? The politics of the show feels a bit simple.
7: Solid story development and setup. Wasn't expecting the..
love story and the connection and disruption but it felt like Sheridan built it up enough. Especially how Cruz gets stumped by intimacy. Not sure if the atrocity videos will be enough for her. Don't really have a feel for what she knew about the mark already.
Alright, anyway.. Leaving the safety of the USA for storyline. I'm ready! Let's see what Sheridan has got!
EP :8
Deep and thoughtful ,, hard to watch ..
And probably the best show on TV at the moment ..
That was a really great series from start to finish.
I kind of hope it's a one and done to be honest.
That was a great episode. Loved it.
Can't wait to see what they do next season maybe the repercussions from what just went down.
Oh I disagree. I want to see more.
Really good finale and excellent show all around. I didn't like Nicole Kidman in this though. She was a bit pointless and when she'd try to be tough she looked ridiculous. Not least as her expression can't really change any more.
Enjoyed the political aspects of the show but by God the efficiency of the spec ops team made every set pieces really boring. I never thought any of the good guys would get hurt.
kinda ended abruptly...
thought the same.
If there is going to be a second season I'd like it to be based on that Mexican border episode and give it the Sircro feel to it.
seriously in the age of facial recognition you don't rid the internet of photos of your spy...
So, that was season one! Solid! I'd watch a season two!
8: Solid finale!
Was shocked by the throat cutting but it felt like it made sense. The gunfight was something! That order at the end to clean the scene!
The cast felt huge in this show. Must have cost paramount a fortune!
All the vetting that she must have had to be allowed into the circle, and then the groom finds her photo just like that.
Yep...the auld duck lip/goldfish pout is distracting af in an otherwise good show.....she used to be such an attractive woman but that's hideous....why would you risk an outcome like this, accept reality and age gracefully ffs, has to be better than looking like you boiled your lips and just finished sucking on a lemon.
It's just classic Taylor Sheridan writing.
All his shows have the same problems, but to his credit he knows how to write a well paced, highly entertaining yarn.
That's what this was - sloppily written at times, but great characters, great action, and just super compelling. That's really his thing - solid moment-to-moment writing but the narrative often falls down because he's too eager to get from point A to B, but honestly it works more often than it doesn't.
Not unlike Yellowstone, a show equally brilliant in the best ways and flawed in the worst. Yet undeniably incredibly watchable.
Overall though I really loved Lioness. Very pleasantly surprised that it stands alone as a one-and-done fairly well if there isn't a second season forthcoming.
Had never heard of Laysla De Oliveira but she was amazing. Cast were good in general but I'd actually agree I didn't love Nicole Kidman and she added little but a name to the cast.
I'm surprised she's only 56. She looks like someone much older than that, trying to look much younger.

That's brilliant. Can not wait for season 2.
Back October 27th with first 2 of 8 episodes
Gunships, politics, the human cost - season 2's trailer.
looks great
A great opening double episode and a new season brings new Lioness.
I guess there is no continuation from the previous season's plotlines. Feels alot like watching Seal team.
Think episode 3 will be more like last season with the new lioness involved now
Now that's a VR simulator I'd like to try.
Yes looked awesome.
wouldnt you try a head shot…
she was very over dramatic to everything in that ep
All the action set pieces in and around the Mexican border in both seasons have been really good and this week was no different.
what happens now they cant pretend that assault was a rival cartel? (one of the trafficcees will tell)
Fcuking hell that was an ending to this weeks episode.
Was not expecting that, if this was on network TV would it have ended the same
