Yes generally such poor quality. Struggling to think of any good shows they've done.
The only one which comes to mind is the comedy Sick Note with Rupert Grint and Nick Frost.

>No they walked away because of “creative differences”
You realise, you're agreeing with me right? I've pointed out how OP was wrong and how the creators were salty about leaving

So that's why they left the live action show? Doubtful. They seemed pretty salty about it.

Apparently they walked away from the live action version. Not clear why.

Dave and Atlanta.
I preferred Dave, I bet you weren't expecting that.
Lil Dicky is a genius who wrote an unflinching character portrayal and wasn't afraid to get vulnerable and satirise his own ego with it. Same with the character of Gator, with an incredible look at bipolar disorder. On top of that, it remained very funny. Season 2 really elevated the show.
Atlanta started out strong but then became a circle-jerk for Donald Glover's ego from season 3. I always felt this was a shame as the first two seasons, especially the second, were really interesting. (Not seen Season 4 yet - I was so put off by Season 3).

Nah, Mr Inbetween is better than all those shows.
Pulls Ray's mad smile
Edit: To add some justification. It was consistently funny and touching. It had a mix of singular (episodic) and long-running storylines which remained compelling. Plus it ended on a bitter sweet high. The central performance was mesmerising, Ray could be in equal parts scary and a heartfelt character.

Yeah the copies I read were ones that had actually been translated on Reddit. Apparently for years that's the only way fans could read the series, via the subreddit's own translations.
I've looked at the official translation and the fan translation side by side and they are near identical in fact. I'd even say that the fan one is better as the writing is less formal and stilted and more fluid and colloquial.

It is funny. But you are correct in the fact that they don't actually make the show within a show darker

Try making an edit on the most minor of pages and see what happens. Guarantee someone will revert it back.

True, this feels very trademark Steven Knight though. As I said, a funny witty take on history.

It will be 4.5 hours in total length and will be three episodes. What are you talking about?

*BBCs Dracula - plus that show sucked
And Luther was better in series one with the hour long format for each episode

Love this type of format. Sherlock did it so well before that show turned to shit.

I'd put it up there with Taxi Driver and Goodfellas. Fantastic movie. Those films are way more appreciated.

I'd argue that it's a pretty obscure movie, forgotten in the wealth of Scorsese's back catalogue. I don't know a single person who has seen it and never see any discussions about it or reference to it in movie discourse.

My favourite bit was when he randomly sees the woman shooting her husband while he's running away from the angry mob and he bitterly quips 'I'll probably get blamed for that too!'.
That bit is just feel so surreal and almost detached from the rest of the movie and yet his line just ties it all together.

Wow, so much complexity and surreal imagery which just flew right by me. That taxi scene definitely reminded me of Dorothy's storm, come to think of it.
Thanks for making this video.
