Hunters

I really enjoyed this season until about episode 7/8, where it took one of the worst plot twists Iv ever seen. I finished it 24 hours ago and I'm still angry at what I watched.

Hunters was actually a pretty fun show. I was looking forward to seeing this after watching the trailers and seeing that Al Pacino was involved but then after reading so many mixed reviews my expectations tempered a bit. Well, after really enjoying the first season I was for season two, I'm about halfway through right now and it's even better than the first. It's too bad that they're only doing two seasons overall but that might actually be perfect for a show like this. You don't want it to overstay its welcome and hang around just for the sake of hanging around. Id definitely recommend if you haven't seen this yet, just give yourself enough time because you're going to want to binge it.

1. Those of us who lived through the 70s can attest: YES. The clothes, the cars, the hair and sideburns, YES they were really that over the top. In hindsight, it all looks ridiculous, but even the executives in my Dad's branch of General Electric were sporting the polyester leisure suits, the gold chains dancing in their chest hair, and those godawful white patent leather shoes and belts. I'd go into home devote and the peak of avocado appliances, but the memories are just too horrifying.

2. For those who keep asking, "What's with all the comic book references?" Do you not know where when and how the superhero comic genre was born? Just take a look at the names of the originators: Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, Will Eisner, Jack Kirby (born Jacob Kurtzberg), and Stan Lee (born Stanley Martin Lieber). All Jews who began publishing their stories with the rise of the Third Reich. A people who needed very much to believe in good people with extraordinary ability to right the world's wrongs. The parallel is brilliant.

I've read some really negative reviews on here I'm not sure why. I'll admit they could've and should've dialed down the schmaltzy accents a bit but other than that I've really enjoyed it. The Tarantino references are more homage than plagiarism I feel. Well worth watching.

I watched season one when it was originally screened and really enjoyed it, so I was looking forward to Season Two.

What a let down this turned out to be !

I gave it half an hour but got fed up with the jumping backwards and forwards in time randomly, but worse still was the reliance on it suddenly being a vehicle for sex scenes every five minutes instead of a decent story ... why does every programme have to go down the route of titillation and soft porn ... if the writers rely on this for their audience to tune in, instead of decent plots then forget about it ... gave up and watched something more entertaining.
