watched the first couiple of series then gave up it was laughably bad- some of the storytelling and continuity was like a teenage art school summer project. I remember one shoot up where it was supposed to be christmas day- it was clearly mid summer and looked about 30 degrees, bright sun and trees full of leaves...

LT - You have to finish it. It took me a while to get around to the last series as heard it was shit, but didn't think it was too bad and liked how it ended.

Was alright to start with. Jumped the shark with the Mafia and Mosley stuff.
Tom Hardy well over the top Jew.

was hugely successful, so they had to make more series with little story left to tell - see also money heist, etc

I agree with all the others.
I've watched the first 2 episodes on the last series when they came out, and haven't been bothered to finish it off, which is very unlike me when I've made an effort to watch every episode in the previous 5 series.
I'll watch the final 4(?) episodes over Christmas, probably, just to tick it off the list.

The reggae and blues felt out if place. I could see a much more gritty realistic version being fucking great.

I'm really glad you didn't put Tom Hardy in that list. Down there with the worst actors of all time.
Agree with the rest though, good first series, just went downhill after that, got really fucking boring.

First couple of seasons were good but it got really silly after that as the stakes were raised exponentially and the storyline no longer fit the characters. I think aspects and traumas of Tommy's past in the war got hinted at a lot but never really went anywhere meaningful, at least for me. I never really saw a real impact of them on his behaviour and actions aside from a few silly scenes.
I think it got really overhyped because the BBC knew they were onto something good, but they tried to push it so hard through every available means and make out it was HBO good and turn it into a franchise when it really wasn't much more than a decent big budget action/drama series.
Stylistically it was brilliant though, and there was some top notch acting in it. Cillian Murphy, Paul Anderson, Helen McCrory, Aiden Gillan, Paddy Considine.
I will say that I found the twist in the last episode quite well done.

Started off well, but got progressively worse as the seasons went on

I was unimpressed with it.
Style over content.
The storylines are silly.

Took me ages to get round to watching it but was hooked when I did. Superb television.
