The occasionally kooky dialogue grips my sh1t more than somewhat.

....and of course, the BBC box-ticking re cast and writer

what a weird post.
Surely anyone who saw Fleabag would recognise Waller-Bridge as one of the finest tv writers around. Her gender has nothing to do with it. As for the cast, should Villanelle (a female, Russian orphan in the books) be played by David Jason or some other older, white dude? |

By:
Yes, very good series, watched Ep. 7 last night.
Jodie Comer as Villanelle is great and some very convincing acting from Sandra Oh as Eve. Hyper-violence in Ep. 1 (syringe in eye) was bit un-necessary I thought. |

By:
The high level of violence perpetrated by the female assassin is key to the whole series. The black humour and the sometimes fragility of the character lead you into a false sense of security, until she ' pounces' and kills again with sheer delight and utter coldness.
All excellently interwoven by brilliant script, acting and direction. Superb. |

I only managed about half an hour of this I found the main characters irritating and the plot ridiculous.

I enjoyed it as much as Bodyguard. Nice TV, we have a*rse holes running the World. Nice to see how a proper psycho operates!

Absolutely loving Killing Eve. Most gripping thing I've watched since Breaking Bad. Excellent writing, acting and filming.
Fantastic sound track too. Françoise Hardy . https://youtu.be/H1Y41sE0rf0 I've only watched the first three episodes. I'm not binge watching it, I'm going to make it last. I have a huge girl crush on Sandra Oh   |

I watched all 8 last week ...brilliant love the black humour

Loved it.
quirky, clever, well produced, and starring the lovely Sandra Oh what more can you ask ? |
|
By:
I've watched four episodes, and agree with plat. Not really comparable with Bodyguard, this is different league. It's all subjective at the end of the day.

It's as far fetched as The Bodyguard but has a cult-ish, arthouse feel which makes it more appealing. The nightclub scene though… absurd. Not as good as it's being hyped up to be but the Beeb doing a very good job of hyping its own dramas in recent months. Actually watched this much earlier this year. It was originally shown on BBC America. Don't start me on The Bodyguard. Absolutely terrible with some truly awful dialogue but it succeeded by being broad in its appeal.

what's this bodyguard thing ? Isn't that an old Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston movie ?
|
|
By:
Its TV,
Not the history of the Plantagenets. Truth is stranger than fiction at times and much more interesting but sometimes we want to be away with the fairies. This was good TV for me. I liked the portrayal of the psychopath and also the geeks on display. |

The village of Bletcham is Turville.

Why is this being compared to Bodygurd? Very stylised & stylish & throughly enjoyable mad spy
thriller. It was utterly daft but utterly brilliant. |
|
By:
I hope we have real agents who can actually scale a five bar gate though
 |
|
By:
yes very enjoyable bit daft in places but superb acting and well thought out plot and script. series 2 on its weay for sure well worth watching if you havent
|
|
By:
It was a fun easy watch, but I thought the plot was weak and it was a bit daft myself.
Of the three series I'm watching/have just watched, The Handmaid's Tale and The Truth About The Harry Quebert Affair being the others, it is the least compelling for my tastes. |

By:
Ann Dowd as Aunt Lydia in the Handmaid's Tale is brilliant
