it'll be great if the harrigans get undone b/c pierce was just lazy and threw an idiot named jojo into the lake

but i can see why tom hardy was just in his trailer for 8hrs, probably b/c he's been carrying the whole damn season on his back.

this weeks episode was the 1st one I watched again, so I've seen it twice. Both times I FF through the 'I'm in deep trouble but I need a bath' bullshit.

It's really fucking stupid. She's a vapid cunt. She just kills someone and she's saved at the last moment by the dude she was cheating on and... let's take a really fucking long bath? Sure, that makes plenty of sense. Especially after saying he needs to get her and the daughter out of dodge so shit doesn't come back to haunt her. But yeah.... bath it is.

Harry is ready for Season 3. The writing fell off a cliff from season 1.

It's a full rug pull from Season 1 where they kept building to greater and greater things. Instead we get Frankie Cooper, who worked out by mid-season after a rocky "This is the big bad??" first few episodes.

But the plot is so scaled down from the global giant that Season 1 hinted at. The contrast is crazy how big the gap is between what they were setting up.

As if the writers had to have done a full 180 and scrapped a fuckton of stuff during the Tom Hardy negotiations, or in the months prior. There is just no explanation how you go from Season 1, which was supposed to be going global, to Season 2 being just a few vacation spots and quick trips that barely feel removed from London.

I'm feeling like 50% of the original Season 2 script was cut and dropped on the floor after some panic/budget concerns.

Wonder if we will ever get the full story.

I think a bunch of Kat McAlister stuff was gutted from Season 2. If you watch Season 1 again, then start watching Season 2, it's like there is something huge missing from the scale and setup they were building.
I think there was a budget decision where the showrunners were like "Fuck it let's make it another London backyard story" Even the Morocco trips and Ireland excursion In Season 2 do nothing to add to the scale due to the way they are shooting the scenes. It all might as well just be filmed in London.

But yeah in terms of big bads, it's hard to top Jordi Molla.

in hindsight they shouldn't have killed brendan, he was so pathetic that he was at least a memorable harrigan, i mean what are the other 2? you a bastard cunt whose big plan is to tell her mom to suck off conrad and then you have the cuck who looks more like harrys henchman than a boss

Antwerp was such a big episode you know someone had to die. Unfortunately in hindsight, we know killing Brendan added nothing to Season 2. The story sprawl got smaller.

Richie Stevenson addded size to the story and took up more space in the narrative.

Frankie Cooper is a step down in the sense he feels backyard tiny, like a schoolyard troublemaker. Richie Stevenson carried weight.

I wonder if the fall off had anything to do with Hardy leaving the show so they wrote a quick pivot but then he decided to stay after they finished up the season.

Late script deliveries that close to filming, with the writer never appearing on set during the actual filming, means this had major rewrites.

Scripts aren't late on a production unless they are being rewritten.

That'd explain a lot. Pierce Brosnan knows this season is pretty medicore also.

Just wonder how much was actually cut from Season 2 for Tom Hardy.
