Yeah definitely up there! Trying to convince mates to watch it now but as soon as I mention it's Italian that seems to be a stumbling block.

Subtitles do unfortunately put some people off and it's a shame as they are missing out on some good shit.

I am no intellectual by any means but really enjoy watching stuff with subtitles. Foreign language film/TV used to be scoffed at by us Brits as arty-farty or pretentious even, but there is just so much good stuff coming out of Europe these days, especially Scandinavia and the crime genre.

I do still think the UK/Ireland and US are pretty good at making crime shows too, but at the moment I can't get enough of the likes of Gomorrah, Bron/Broen (The Bridge) or Trapped.

For me its the best season finale of a show I've ever watched. And there has been some good ones.

I thought it was obvious what was going to happen from the minute he started his act.

I recall thinking that I'd seen the same sorta thing in a BBC series from the 70's, Colditz.

And the only reason you think it's the best.....you haven't seen Gravity Falls yet.

Obvious or not it was still Epic.

Spoiler

Didn't suss it myself that Don Pietro was acting all along. Even if I had suspected it, the way in which his old trusted friend Mallamore reappeared and the way the prison van raid went off, would still have left me in awe. Especially when Don Pietro was released from his chains and immediately went back to his original and sane self strolling coolly to the waiting getaway vehicle.

Sublime.

Watch your backs Ciro and Conte, The Don is back

What drives me nuts is that Ciro would always walk up to someone after he had shot them and ensure he shot off another one or two bullets to make sure they were dead. Hated that they had him walk off in that final scene with Genny. Only pet peeve I had with the season.

Just been confirmed by Genny on facebook that it's back on 10th May in Italy. Hopefully it's translated and available soon after.

Edit: Now confirmed UK date is May 10th!

Now I'm not one to moan about going to watch Liverpool as its a privilege..but....

Damn those rearranged fixtures.

Was looking forward to watching these back to back even with ad-breaks to make a brew etc.

Tomorrow it is for me.

I've got a link where you can stream the first episode of season 2 with subtitles.

Not sure about forum rules - can I post link here?

Otherwise just send me a private msg.

Same here, the Mrs is out and the kids will be in bed bang on time.

A few beers, a bit of junk food and two hours of Gomorrah, get in!

I hear ye. My lad has foolishly left a twin pack of Jaffa Cakes in the cupboard that were simply not hidden well enough.

1 pack per episode.

Yep, carried on literally minutes from where series 1 ended

Only watched episode 1 last night but will watch episode 2 tonight i reckon.

enjoyed the season opener

Buck Pete · « **Reply #271 on:** May 13, 2016, 09:21:15 pm »

Fucking Hell

Episode 1 was good but...

Episode 2 was simply a masterpiece of an episode. Can't believe you lads aren't lauding over it big time. Fucking brilliant from start to finish with a little bit of everything in perfect measurements that makes a good crime drama brilliant.

This program is the dogs bollocks and If Vince Gilligan had directed this, the whole world but be going mad for it.

I feel It's only gonna get better if that's possible.

Agreed Pete, episode 2 was utterly brilliant. Really excited to see where this series goes.

Still can't get my head around that some of my mates won't watch this as it's subtitled. Madness.

Pistolero · « **Reply #273 on:** May 14, 2016, 09:24:58 am »

watched the first two last night.....fuck me, episode 2 was stunning...one of the best episodes of any drama i've seen on TV.....looks like the long wait has been worth it, with dividends...

Canada Loves Anfield · « **Reply #274 on:** May 15, 2016, 02:01:21 am »

Episode 2 is up there with one of the best tv episodes Ive ever seen.

Pistolero · « **Reply #275 on:** May 18, 2016, 09:55:15 am »

cant wait for this weeks episode...have to say I'm very surprised by the lack of love for episode 2 on here?...although I appreciate it may have clashed with the Eurovision song contest...

saoirse08 · « **Reply #276 on:** May 18, 2016, 12:39:02 pm »

Watched them both last night.

Totally agree with @Buck Pete and @Pistolero and others. Two masterful episodes. From Ep1 in which Ciro is now in blood stepped so far that he should wade no more, to misquote Shakespeare. Fucking hell! That was grim. Then to Koln and Genny and Don Pietro in the 2nd ep. Just an incredibly compelling piece of drama. The shifting dynamics between the two characters was brilliantly executed. Not a false note throughout. Also, the sound production on this show does something quite remarkable too. I'm not technically of au fait with the jargon to completely express its brilliance, but as a tool for building excitement, unease and tension it's utterly superb. That's without mentioning the cinematography...

Wire levels of brilliance in those opening two episodes.
