If you are going to pay £4 to rent it on prime, it's probably better to pay for a month of £6 Netflix and get it for free.

Yeah, it started out obviously adult, but the story telling is on a par with what I would let my thirteen year old daughter watch. More light teen comedy than dark drama, but then with adult sex and murder chucked in.
Watched 1 episode of Dark Matter and hated it T & P 
Characters 2 dimensional, dialogue and acting pants, skimpy clothing on main female character whose authority was then undermined further by her being objectified by all 3 men. Like watching a fkn 70s throwback. Shite.
BUT this gave us the chance to start watching Upload, which is absolutely brilliant in every way!

Bollocks. Didn't even think to check.

Watched the first louder milk. Passed the time but nothing more. Is it worth continuing with? Preacher seems to have found it's stride (series 4) deviating from the comic, but I only seem to watch it half drunk or washing up etc .
COCK-PIRATE!
such a shame that there will never be a scenario in which I can use that accusation
I watched the first two episodes yesterday after seeing it recommended here, have no intention of watching any more.

I’m only half way through it and was coming here to to thoroughly endorse it without bothering to finish it. Never mind the plot (which I’m enjoying anyway), the cinematography and the way it’s filmed alone makes it highly watchable.
Apparently the director’s first film as well. Fuck me! One to watch for sure, and one of the most confident and original debut films I’ve seen in a while.

I got slightly disillusioned with S3 of Preacher, but I thought S4 was very good. Frankly I’m amazed that any major studio picked it up and was allowed to support it for four seasons- because it makes Life of Brian look like a pro-Christian propaganda film by comparison

Cool people die horrible, preventable deaths.
Ta, sounds right up my street.
Right? As someone said upthread, that opening shot! Imagine doing that with all the dialogue and it just felt so real, a proper little window into someone else's world. And then it just takes you with it, to the point that analysing it now I'm not sure that the ending would have stood up without the genius of everything that came before. Bloody brilliant.

Indeed. I thought series 1 was waaaaay off track, but it picked up at the beginning of S2, before dropping the ball again. Maybe for budget reasons they spend way too much time in one place when it would make sense to move on. Season 4 is looking pretty good so far. Herr Starr is great casting, as is Cassidy, (though very watered down into a fairly likeable sort). Hated Dominic Cummings as preacher to start with, but from series two he really grew into the role.I got slightly disillusioned with S3 of Preacher, but I thought S4 was very good.

watched the first episode of Upload - will keep watching it as I like the premise but so far it's looking more like The Good Place than The Office and Parks & Rec, in that they seemed to have spent too much time constructing the high concept plots and not enough time writing funny jokes.

Herr Starr is certainly the star of the show.
Thought Cummings was perfect as the preacher from the start, but then I don't know the comics.

I generally find a good rule of thumb is that if the cast are all young and slick as fuck, the women skimpily dressed with full make up (really? on a fucking space ship with work to do?) and there's no one with any oddness at all, and the dialogue could have been written by a 12 year old, it's gonna be shiteI was going to suggest give it a chance, but if you hated it so much I don’t think it’ll improve enough to work for you
Sad thing is, the story itself had potential. I just couldn't get past all the irritating shit to get to it.

Merry Xmas!
Currently been wowed by season 4 of The Expanse. The ships and set design are pretty magnificent for a television show.
