things shud go back to normal for next season, if there is one.. but yeah.. this season was a challenge to get thru..

The ending was rather disappointing too. I guess the writers didn't know their own way out of all the drama side-storylines they created so they came up with a cop-out.

I watched Ellis season 1. Good thing you mentioned it as I forgot all about it!
I'd watched it when it came out, but couldn't remember much of it.
And since season 2 should be out I figured it was nice to watch season 1 first.
Tonight I hope to find season 2 episodes.

Ellis S02 has dropped, 4 ep in all.. I've only managed ep 1 so far tho.. gonna continue that tonigh..

finished The Marlow Murder Club S03 last night.. love the distraction as usual..

tv series these days aren't like they used ta be.. sadly.. I seem to be losing interest in a lot of'em..

Yeah, I got the same problem. Like what I said with the Lincoln Lawyer, Marshals, Yellowstone.
For me it's mostly that they get too many dramatic storylines involved while at first the series was really good. They lose the focus.
Can't recall a title right now, but sometimes police or crime series that after a few episodes or 1 season deal more with personal crap of the characters than crime solving.
Or what happens more and more these days, they get lost in political correctness. Always needing to have gays, non-Causians, Muslims, and people who don't even know whether they're a man or woman even though they were clearly born in a male and/or female body.
I don't like that either and am quickly done with series like that.
A good example of that was 9-1-1. Got up my nose real fast!

But yeah, there are still gems out there that are very worthwhile.
I felt 1883 was sure as heck one of them!
The Canadian series "Flashpoint" was sure as hell one too! I still feel it's one of the best in the genre.

Anywho... I'll have to find Ellis' season 2 :)

some may consider it "political correctness" to include diversity in their shows but the reality is.. diversity exsists and SHOULD be included..

Canada is based on inclusiveness and diversity.. it's part of our way of life.. admittedly, I'm not at all comfortable with what you wrote above..

For someone who claims to be so well versed in the understanding of humans.. I'm very surprised by your comments.
