Love/Hate - Dublin gangster nonsense

...she's currently watching Season 4...

She's having you on! Season 3's finale only aired in December, and shooting only wrapped on season 4 in May.

hm, quite possible, considering she thought she was watching Series 5 and I told her that was impossible, but she was adamant, then she googled it and decided I was correct.

Yeah, I reckon she was just giving me spoilers that she knew about from reading the papers, but I got the impression she was actually watching it. My mistake

Season 4 starts NEXT SUNDAY!

I nearly had a heart attack over the domestic violence scene, and everyone says that the first season is tame violence-wise compared with what's to come, so I have decided I'm too much of a delicate flower to watch it.

They should get rid of pretty boy though, if they haven't already. I've known plenty of good looking rough types in my time, but he just can't pull it off believably.

Accidentally caught a couple of episodes in Kerry when Rte were reshowing the whole lot. Bought box set, finally caught up with myself, was v annoying as was last two of series two, big stuff happens that makes more sense if watched in order (tempted to say what for all the fuckers streaming breakin bad who have decided talking about shit a day after it airs in the states is the new normal)

Any way thoroughly enjoying, even it is bringing back the Mrs dub accent, she sounded aussie when we first hooked up

The dead cat thing caught them off guard thgeyve had dog fighting a bloke killed a swan but pretend to kill one at

 

[DaveCinzano]

Just got round to starting on S4... Talk about hit the ground running! Lots of pieces already on the board

 

[Casually Red]

In short:

S1 = A bit too pretty, these gangsters
S2 = Hang on, things are getting interesting
S3 = Holy fuck!!!

youd be surprised though, half those scumbag fuckers are never out of the gym or tanning salon in real life. For instance

TALLAFORNIA hunk Marc O’Neill last night joked he will give his gym pal Sean Enright some fake tan to cover up his bullet wounds — after this week’s gun attack in which Enright was shot five times

Watching the latest and it's getting annoying. It's like they're trying to cram too much Wire/Sopranos into it. What's the story with Fran's teeth? That's the mystery gone when you're trying to work out if the actor actually has a few teeth missing or the make up department have played a blinder. And they've made Nidge look like a clown. The attempted assassination scene was abysmal. Samurai sword ffs. Still though, cracking stuff for RTE, even when it's bad it's good. Love it, Hate it.

 

[Buckaroo]

Right it's on tonight and it better shape up. There's been some scandal, one of the drug squad cops is actually a drug squad cop in real life, not sure why that's scandal tbh and the young lad who shot the cat has been spouting racist gibberish on his facebook. And that dentist is in big trouble, he should get out of there. went to the dentist the other day, used to enjoy it but now it's getting industrial, teeth are fucked.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Watching last week's episode (S4E6) at the weekend, now really want to get on and see last night's one... Like how Keith Boyzone is shaping up...

O’Neill (27) said he met hardman Enright at a bodybuilding contest four years ago when the businessman offered him a thong to show off his muscles in front of judges.

It wasn't on last night which means last week's was the end of the series as far as I can tell which means it's shit. Have I got this wrong? If last week was the end of the series, everyone involved in the show should be taken out and shot in a manner befitting of the clichéd rip-off, gangster trash it portrays. Someone tell me I'm wrong.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Season finale so it was, boo!

 

[Buckaroo]

Season finale so it was, boo!

Yeah, boo is right. They fuck up with the pace of the thing, too much too soon and then it's over. Good show but premature. The cops were rubbish and they start sub plots they don't finish. Cashing in, it'll go on forever. Soap opera gangsterism.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Season three was perfectly paced, though, and built up to a proper climax. This one started strong and then just - full stop.

Disappointing

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I just got excited seeing this thread updated, then realised you lot obviously aren't watching it on normal English TV are you?

So you think normal English TV makes Irish gangster TV look different? No wonder, no bloody wonder!

 

[Casually Red]

Enrights on the front of the Irish Daily Star today claiming RTE had offered him a role in the series but he turned it down . RTE denying it .

dont let fridgemagnet see that ffs

 

[LiamO]

you mean FridgeMagnet hasn't seen it?

 

[DaveCinzano]

It's okay, it's a professional stuntcat.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I meant, as in not watching it on Channel 4 or whatever channel 1st series was shown on here!

Cool. Only messing.

 

[LiamO]

I thought the ending was OK. A bit rushed though. Like 10 mins were left on the cutting room floor.
