    First two episodes are really good, and Gary Oldman kills it.

    surprised there isn't more activity in this thread. i finished the show yesterday and thought it was fun, though not an easy watch.

    I need to go back and finish. I got distracted and it fell off my watch list. But I know they’re coming back for more seasons and I know a lot of people really enjoyed the show.

    there's a trailer for season 2 at the end of the finale. it was a nice surprise. and i think ive read apple has already approved seasons 3 and 4.

    i think there are 7-8 books (and counting) the series is based on so there could be a lot of seasons

    Jackson Lamb is even better in the books. And Roddy Ho’s character is incredible but written in a way that doesn’t easily translate to screen.

    I got all the books on Audible when they were on sale for like $5 each. They are great. Love the show.

    The way Gary Oldman looks at Ho when he says the moon landings were fake in the newest episode killed me.

    Same, Oldmans character is amazing, and the show is the perfect balance of complex and easy to follow.

    I hate how short the seasons are. I get knee-deep in the Slow Horses universe and then BOOM it’s over.

    British TV just doesn't like to stick around. I think they could do 8 per season without adding anything stupid.

    Yeah, with as much British TV as I’ve binged over the years you’d think I’d be used to it by now. Alas.

    Despite starting this thread, I never got back into it like I needed to. My wife and I just blazed through all 3 seasons over the last week or so. Just awesome.

    Season 3 was incredible I thought. start to finish they upped the excitement, humor, tension, etc. And getting to know the characters over 3 (short) seasons has been great.

    Was legit sad when they killed Douglas (not Doug) at the end of season 3. Been a while since we laughed as hard as we did at “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!” when they were trying to keep Chieftan guys out
