Spoiler:

….I had guessed that his grandfather had arranged for the killing of Patz from when he was writing the note and crying as he was doing it….i felt that that he was being forced to write it…?..anyway, though…I thought that it might have left it that Jacob did kill Ben or we found out who had killed him…because it could have been another pupil at the school…?…but it left us really not knowing…plus I guess that we assume that Jacob doesn’t recover…I didn’t like the thread through it all that it felt as though his mom had lost her belief in him…and she wanted him to die in the car…/…for them both to die…it felt as though she felt more at peace in knowing that Jacob would probably never recover…we don’t even know if Jacob did kill anyone because he said that he did because it’s what he thought his mom wanted him to say …but we don’t know if it was true…

…I’ll go have a little look at this later…

…as recommended, I’m watching One Day…it’s a bit different and great chemistry with the lead characters…I like the concept of looking at their lives each year on that one day…

…the more I think about this….

Spoiler:

…the more I disliked the ending and feel no sense of closure in any aspect…we don’t know whether Jacob killed Ben or not and just because Jacob’s grandfather set up the suicide of Patz…that still doesn’t mean that Patz didn’t kill Ben and that being the reason why he deleted the pics from his phone…it just means that he didn’t have the intention of committing suicide…and it feels as though the thing that made Laurie most sad and most troubled was how she was perceived as a mother in the neighbourhood…not her love for Jacob…it almost felt that she was ‘more at peace’ when he was on life support and in his coma….i just keep thinking how awful the ending was and spoilt the series for me…

Spoiler:

It was a good show but that's why i said it was "interesting" thought provoking I suppose but kind of weighs heavy too

Spoiler:

I suppose if this was a real story people might never know the truth either and perhaps a lot of people would feel this way as a parent too, worried that their child is a evil and how other people might think it's their fault, maybe she's even worried it is her fault

it started on Britbox which now looks like it has been taken over by ITV hub

you can get a free trial here, the eps are only 25 mins so you should be able to finish before the trial runs out if you like it that is

https://watch.britbox.co.uk/

…I have to say that this is such a tonic atm…no murders or tension or serial killers or violence etc….just great characters and their lives…:love:…it’s what I loved about This is Us….

I haven't seen Shogun yet, myself.

So I'm curious, what didn't you like about it? Is there a red flag to watch out for?

Started off very slowly went downhill .. I gave it 20 minutes but didn’t like anything about it ..

I can tell after 5 minutes but gave this longer as everyone was raving about it online

I get that tbf, I've had some Shows where I've known quickly that it's not for me.

Personally I think that 20 minutes is a bit hasty, but I understand if you were just stone cold to Shogun's style.

Thanks for explaining your reason to me btw, honestly appreciated.

Things like Peaky Blinders or The Sopranos or the Wire I knew within two minutes

Some Shows are more instant on how you feel about them, granted.

However, speaking for myself, I have had loads of Shows where after the first 20 minutes I wasn't feeling them, and then grew to love the **** out of said Show.

I mean, I haven't watched Shogun so I might end up agreeing with you when I do end up watching it, but I hope that it can be an epic.
