BigDoddyKane Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) Anyone watched this Irish TV Series on Dublin crime families? Im a couple episodes in and its excellent. Some great acting. The old boy playing Eamon Cunningham, seen him a few things over the years and he fair plays that character with understated menace Edited November 2, 2021 by BigDoddyKane 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Was a decent enough watch without being spectacular. Must be looking for a second season with the way it ended. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BukyOHare Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Miles late to this party but I'm getting to the end of Series 1 and really enjoying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Just finished season 2. Bren was a great character. A truly horrible b*****d. Seems to me like he's the way these sorts of people should be portrayed. No glamour or charisma. Just an absolutely vicious, horrible, paranoid b*****d. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading various articles it looks like at the earliest some point next year they'd be able to get a new series done but can definitely see it happening at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I seem to be quite out of step here. Watched this based on some rave reviews and didn’t really enjoy it at all. Series 1 was engaging, if a bit silly, but nothing better than ok. Series 2 I just found a bit rubbish in all honesty. Quite surprised that all the critical reviews seem to love it. Infelt every plot and sub plot was too rushed, and didn’t ever find the characters believable or really like any of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Michael's just pinned Bren to a chair. What an absolute boy Michael is. An absolute killer with a conscience. The most dangerous men who walk this Earth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The acting hasn't lived up to the act. I could be doing the man a disservice. The bit where Bren goyt out and Michael punched the wall/radiator, just a minute or so of real han acting. He's been excellent in the family scenes and the bit I write of. Flickers of Ciro in Gomorrah. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just would have liked maybe another flash or two of where his rep came from. There were some, but he was set up with this air of menace, I'd just have liked a drop of the guard a wee touch more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 It got to the point where it was like there was a call to arms and I was ready to phone the Paisley mafia and acquire some shooters and take out the little ginger bastirt myself. Not often I cheer when somebody is shot. Just a fucking horrible, ugly actor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
