Agreed, same boat in having not played the game, but knew the backstory. Show has been very good so far and even with the "zombies" in this how they are way more interesting and deadlier than the slow, plodding lot in the Walking Dead. Very good character development so far.

Re: Recommended TV Drama
Just started this recently as well, had heard great reviews on it. It is pretty good so far, but you are right a slow burner. My wife couldn't hang in and decided it wasn't for her. Feel like it's going to keep getting better as the season goes on, I'm about 4 episodes in.lufc1304 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2023 4:01 pm Enjoying Severance on Apple TV. Bit of a slow burner, but interesting premise

Re: Recommended TV Drama
Same as me, Cole. Good cameos from Turturro and Walken so far, Patricia Arquette is always watchable and I really like the guy playing Mark, though I don't think I've seen him in anything else.KansasCole wrote: ↑Wed Feb 08, 2023 2:12 pm Just started this recently as well, had heard great reviews on it.

Re: Recommended TV Drama
Yes big Turturro fan and he always plays the quirky characters so well, and Walken is an OG that will always be great. Also really enjoy Dylan (played by Zach Cherry), he's the perfect contrast to Turturro in the Sev'rd office. Adam Scott (Mark) has been in several comedies like Step Brothers with Will Ferrell, he was also a mainstay on the show Parks & Rec, but I wasn't a huge fan of that show, I'm more of an Office guy.

Re: Recommended TV Drama
It's been excellent so far , I also see that a second series has already been commissioned. There's an accompanying weekly podcast with the show runners which is also a good listen

Re: Recommended TV Drama
I watched The English which I thought was really good, but pretty gruesome.
The Last Of Us was good, but not a patch on TWD for me.
Just reviewing the first season of Your Honor and then will watch the second season.
