Great TV series on Amazon - Bosch

[cantthinkofanything]

Decided to give this a try yesterday and watched several episodes. Based on some books that I didn't read but were supposed to be very good.

Great cop show. Can't think of anything since the Wire that I liked as well. Also very good casting. Titus something or other plays the main character and he's awesome. Almost all of the main characters are recognizable from other TV/ Movie work.

Amazon is putting out some top shelf entertainment imo.

[leemajors]

I'll check it out, I'm almost done with The Code on Netflix. Pretty good Australian show.

[The Gemini Method]

I like the cinematic feel this show gives Los Angeles. I've seen a couple episodes.

[Bender]

I added it to my amazon Watchlist a few days ago. I've read a few of the Bosch books by Michael Connelly.

[leemajors]

Should have mentioned Marlo and Broyles were in it!

[cantthinkofanything]

Should have mentioned Marlo and Broyles were in it!

Marlo. Damn. That's it. I placed Broyles immediately. But for the life of me, I couldn't remember where I'd seen Marlo. I don't like doing IMDB when I'm watching something because it'll tell you how many episodes they are in which can sometimes give away the ending. For the life of me, I could not figure out where I'd seen him.

Anyway, we wrapped it up last night. Very solid. Nothing special about the story but the acting and cinematography make it a very good show. Every main character and second tier character is top notch. Jason Gedrick is better than anything I've seen him in. Also starting to build a political back story somewhat like the Wire.

haha, I do like how the Fire Stick shows which actors are on screen if you want

I keep thinking I'm going use the X-Ray more but never do. It is kind of cool on the older movies and see some of the trivia that I didn't know back then.

[leemajors]

Finished it earlier, liked it a lot. Season 2 is in the works already from what i've seen.

Shiit...good eye. I knew I'd seen him but could not place him. So that's 3 from the Wire on the show.

Counting the fat crooked lawyer in the wire, who works in the casino on Bosch too, that's 4.

[SpursforSix]

Finished Season 3. Another good one. I won't give any spoilers. They juggle several different story lines again but it all works pretty well.
Nothing spectacular about it but just a very solid watchable show with compelling characters.

[I. Hustle]

STFU!

I watched the movie Beaches because you recommended it and I could not stop crying at the end. You DID NOT prepare me for that.

But you enjoyed it right?

You call that enjoyment? Gaining 5 pounds off of Ben & Jerry's and pizza. Bawling my eyes out because of the sorrow and pain? Being left on the edge of a cliff because I want to know what happens after.

[Blake]

Been meaning to watch this one.

Just finished season 2 of fortitude. What a mess. The novelty of them living in a small town in the polar region wears off fast

But you felt something...you really felt something.

What happens after is left to your heart. It's the beauty of a good film. You can't always have some copper come in with a gun and clean everything up in the end.

[SpursforSix]

For anyone watching this show, it's coming back mid April.
One of my favorite series.

[SpursforSix]

Tomorrow niggas. I love this show.

[Blake]

Cool. It seems like forever since I watched it, may have to watch a few later episodes to recall.

Last season was fantastic. I watched it a few months ago.

[SpursforSix]

Last season was fantastic. I watched it a few months ago.

So I binged the whole 10 episodes yesterday. (note to myself: wtf are you doing with your life).

And to use your description of last season, Season 4 is fantastic.

Similar to last season, there's one main case combined with a few other sides cases. Including his quest to find his mom's killer.
Don't want to spoil anything so I'll leave it at that.

IMO, the show does a great job of blending in the personal lives of the characters just enough to make your interested. And not so much that it slows the show down.

They did set it up for a very interesting Season 5. Which they have been renewed for already.

Anyone that has enjoyed the first 3 seasons won't be disappointed.

[Blake]

Saw the first two episodes of season 4.

A little sluggish and the dialogue is always so monotone. But the storyline and character development is solid. A good whodunit so far.

I think that's why I like it. That it's a straight forward whodunit. I enjoyed The Fall, The Killing, etc. But it's refreshing to watching a really well done cop show that doesn't have to
rely on a genius psychopath killer to keep the cops on their heels. And doesn't spend 10 minutes per episode on random sex scenes that have nothing to do with the plot.

[Blake]

K, I finished and gotta say I'm disappointed.

Generic straightforward plot, no surprising twists. The storylines/cases also kept me wondering if they ever connect but never do.

The guy riding the bicycle stealing from people was a completely worthless tangent that dragged out through the season that ended up having nothing to do with anything.

He did make me laugh tho, especially stealing the phone right off the table of the that lady at the restaurant leaving her going wtf just happened

I somewhat agree on the bicycle dude. I had totally forgot that he was even in the previous seasons. I thought they were going to tie him in with something major.
I disagree with you on the rest though. But I don't want to spoil anything giving my reasons.

[Blake]

I mean the case with the pen in the head kinda sorta tied with the main case just to make you wonder about the suspect but not very much.

Dunno. I still like Boschs character

Yeah...I also don't agree that there weren't any twists. Maybe not in the main case but you know...
But I'll admit I possibly slightly overrate it because of the main character and how well Welliver carries it.
As well as the rest of the cast. Glad to see some of the Wire guys come out with strong performances.
Other than the two cop buffoons, the cast is pretty top notch.

[leemajors]

Just finished ep 3, liking it so far.

[Capt Bringdown]

Didn't enjoy season 4. The fizz has gone out of Bosch - a pissed-off cop with luggage, who goes around looking bored.
The actor who plays Bosch has an extremely limited range. Pity, because the character in Connelly's books as I recall is much more rounded.
I don't know where they go from here, I think the show has run its course.

[leemajors]

I like the actor, but to each their own. I need to read the books, thanks for reminding me.

They just started filming season 5.

I did a quick search last night and it looked the series kind of start after several books. I ordered The Black Echo. If I like that, will probably see if Half Price has the next few.
I've been failing recently at finding anything that keeps my attention.

Yep, if you haven't read the books, they are a really good read.
My favorite Connelly character is Mickey Haller, the half-brother of Bosch, who was featured in the movie The Lincoln Lawyer (which was an excellent movie, IMO).

Just finished the first book and have the second on order. Good stuff. Really doesn't slow down. I've given up on some other detective series where the author spent pages and pages throughout the book on some meaningless relationship between the main character and his/her love interest. Connelly (at least in Black Echo) keeps it fairly short and never spends more time than necessary.

[SpursforSix]

It's time.

I hate that I look forward to this for a year and then I get done with it in a couple of days.

[Capt Bringdown]

Ripped my way through the series 5 over the weekend. Good season, an improvement over last year. Perhaps my favorite of the lot.
Hard to say why - I suppose the low-key atmosphere and pacing perfectly suited the way I was feeling this weekend. Good stuff.

Just finished it myself and agree with you. Might be my favorite as well. Even though the main story might have been the least complicated yet. Thought the secondary plots were also very interesting. And looks like they’ve set up at least two of the storylines for next season. Actually 3 with Irving.

Definitely feel the influence of the Wire with the inclusion of politics and the press in the stories.

[Biernutz]

I just crammed the season in one day. This is one of my favorite series.

[leemajors]

I've got one episode left, and I am kinda glad they left the Lincoln Lawyer out of it. Glad they left Cisco in though.

Bend over, I’ll fucking cram a season into one day.

[Henrey]

Yes you are right

[Reck]

This and Billions are the best shows currently airing.

Hector was highly sidelined this season. Guy did not do a single thing.

Season 6 will be a good one with all the loose threads left at the end.

[SpursforSix]

Can’t believe it’s already been a year. Season 6 coming April 20.

Guess they released it early. Full Season 6 out now. My plan was to watch one a day but I ended up watching episodes 1 through 4 yesterday.
Great as always. It's just that much better than most cop procedural shows. Good stories and excellent cast.

On ep 9, this show could go a while if amazon lets it. 20+ books of plot available and they’ve only used six. Still great.

I wish there’s keep it going. Unfortunately, I just learned that they’re done after Season 7. Which sucks because as you said, the stories are already there. Not like they have to write new ones each year just to keep it going.

No, I think 7 is more than fine. Better to go out on top than be a Walking Dead or Supernatural.

[Reck]

Done with season 6. Overall a good one but just to be nitpicky I couldn't take the FBI chick seriously after having watched her play sort of a comic relief, goofy character in Preacher.

She's a classic Karen type which further annoys me. lol

[SpursforSix]

No, I think 7 is more than fine. Better to go out on top than be a Walking Dead or Supernatural.

Yeah...but those were written season to season so they were always having to come up with new ideas on the fly. There's over 20 Bosch novels that the series can pull from.
That being said, my guess is that it would be too hard to keep the core cast together at a reasonable cost for many more seasons.

[Capt Bringdown]

Good season, although the daughter character isn't very interesting and the actress is terribly wooden.

EDIT : Deleted comment about Jerry getting killed off. Was kidding about that and he's still in tact.

[Capt Bringdown]

Working my way through it. Feel like it's a bit of a chore at this point.
The entire daughter storyline and actress doesn't do anything for me.

However, I suppose it's true to Connelly's books - lots of storylines threaded together, some more interesting than others.

The slow-burn aspect of the series as a whole is a bit up and down. Still a quality show, that'll be worth re-watching in the future.

[SpursforSix]

Another good season albeit a little slow to start. They're already shooting the spinoff.
I will miss a lot of the Bosch characters. I hope they give them some cameos here and there.

When you said spin off I assumed it was a Mickey Haller or Renee Ballard show, but it looks like it is just taken from the books where he works as a PI? Is that really a spinoff?

I was probably lose with the word, "spin-off". I haven't come close to reading all the books. Was just happy to see Welliver continue on. I'm assuming with Overmyer still being in charge, he'll continue to fill spots with compelling actors.

Individually they weren't brutal but the whole collective of them in between the action scenes, imo.

I also thought the whole Captain framing the LT was stupid. His motive for going after her was weak and he was sloppy as shit in executing the frame. They busted him in like what, 24, hours?

This season was boring as hell. Titus Welliver totally mailed the last season in. He looked bored.

I guess this a a decent place to throw this in.
The Lincoln Lawyer series starts on May 13 on Netflix.

Connelly seems to be amassing a fortune.

Edit...seems to be hard to pin down. One site has him at $250,000,000 in 2011. Then another at only $10,000,000 in 2021. Surely he's made well more than that for just the books.

I watched the first two eps of Lincoln Lawyer, I like it so far. I watched it before the Bosch spin off because commercials

[SpursforSix]

I started Bosch Legacy on FreeVee. The commercials aren't bad. I think there's three commercial breaks per episode that are a couple minutes long and they put 3 to 4 short ads in each.
Anyway, it's pretty typical Bosch. The writing is good and the acting is as well. However, it's not as good a cast as Bosch imo. Instead of Jamie Hector or Lance Riddick carrying a plot line, you have Mimi Rogers or Madion Lintz. They're not bad. Just not as compelling to me.

[Blake]

I tried Bosch legacy but three episodes in, I'm getting bored

[SpursforSix]

That's what I've made it through as well. Or maybe 4. There's no doubt Welliver carries the show at this point. I like his character enough where I still enjoy it. That being said, I'm not as intrigued by Honey's law practice as I was the other various LAPD story lines. And I've never thought Maddie was very believable. Especially as a cop. But I still like the show. Also like his sometime partner. Maybe they involve him more. I guess another negative is how heroic they're making Bosch. SPOILER : Somehow infiltrating the secured Russian hideout and getting away and then later the very secure warehouse. All the while, not carrying a gun.

[SpursforSix]

Season 1 really starts to pick up from Episode 4. His new tech guy is an interesting character. I like how they have several stories going and you don't know when they're going to wrap them up. Might be mid-season, might carry over. Something is always going on.

I was thinking that he looks almost the same as when he played Kennedy. But then I checked the pics.

I've liked him ever since I saw him in Marathon Man, he was so good.

Damn. That's a movie that I keep forgetting to watch.

I liked it, the lead actor grew on me. I watched all of them in two days

I watched it in one day. Better than I expected. Easy to make the Bosch comparisons. Main character works outside the lines. Single with a daughter. Multiple stories going on at the same time. Main character has something from the past he has to reconcile. Also a jazz fan.

All that being said, I thought it was pretty great. Maybe a couple of slow episodes in the middle but it got going again pretty fast.
