British series, mini-series and dramas .....

[bwana]

Made by Hulu, but shot in London and the series is set in London...

So could go either way I guess?

I am sure an argument of what defines a series as being US or British will ensue post haste...

I was going to say made by Starz and produced by Lionsgate which is American/Canadian IIRC - I didn't know about the Hulu connection.

It was shot in the UK but that's a 51st state anyway...

My apologies..I was wrong about Hulu...they WERE going to make the series, but you are correct, it was STARZ.

Production Co:
Character 7, Liberty Global, Carpool Entertainment

But but but it's a paranormal show therefore it MUST be good.

Paranormal my ass. Its like a watered down The Boys.

No ghosts or aliens here.

I think it was during Ep3 that I decided enough is enough. Around the 24min mark to be precise.
And Olivia Munn can't act her way out of a paper bag.

Great, was waiting for the series to end before watching any further. Now I'm gonna be looking at the clock all the way through episode 3, to see what happens at 24 minutes. Thanks.

I think it's a US reboot which normally means it's going to be cr@p. The one exception is the Office.

Thanks for the feedback

It's terrible.

Unfortunately the shock factor is all some shows have. Intelligent storytelling isn't on the agenda.

Those shows are weeded out very easily, sometimes by just watching the trailer.

Unfortunately for @hilton he's missing out on some amazing series, because of his very strict self imposed viewing limitations.

To quickly mention: Soprano's, Narcos, Breaking Bad and Deadwood will all be filtered out...

Busy watching re-runs of Only Fools and Horses, Green Green Grass and Men Behaving Badly. Nothing new from the UK at the moment except for Brexit chaos.

Just finished "Gentleman Jack".

Another brilliant show from the HBO stable.

Watching a woman in the 1830's take zero kuk from men within "polite society" is very refreshing indeed.

Suranne Jones is exceptional.

So the last time a good show came from the UK, was in 1992 according to you?

Make sure you see her in "Unforgiven", "Scott and Bailey", "Vanity Fair" and "Doctor Foster".
