Another overhyped BBC drama. Very average show stopped watching after season 2 as it was so repetitive.

Lot's of posturing as a grimey, gangland drama, but not much actual gangland drama. Mostly just long diatribes about whatever it means to "be a Shelby". Initially caught in the hype due to the huge production budget, I've watched severalLot's of posturing as a grimey, gangland drama, but not much actual gangland drama. Mostly just long diatribes about whatever it means to "be a Shelby". Initially caught in the hype due to the huge production budget, I've watched several seasons and ultimately it's just a big disappointment. Sure there are some great performances (Tom Hardy, Kline) but such mediocre storytelling stifles them most of the time. There also aren't aby characters worth routing for which begs the question of why one would watch the show in the first place. Learn from my mistake and don't waste your time here. Expand

I watched 2 whole seasons hoping to get better but it never did.The series hits right, it has good things, but it's very slow, I didn't like the series' grip.I was going to watch season 3 but I lost the will, maybe one day I'll watch it again.
