FTA-TV The Outsider

[MC Bad Genius]

Excellent.

Good luck Holly!

I would've thought she'd have a keen enough sense not to even be in a car at all with Jack, even if she is the one driving. Ruh-roh.

This show is the biggest letdown of 2020 so far

I disagree wholeheartedly, but curious to know why you think it's been a letdown?

I thought I was getting a binge worthy crime show and not some slow paced hocus pocus garbage

At least the last two minutes woke me from my slumber

I shall now return to Narcos Mexico Season 2 of which I am binging with Ep4 half knocked over

Ciao

Ps Oh and Castle Rock S01/2 are way better than this

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Eh I found Castle Rock to be a bit more slow and meandering quite similarly than this.

The difference here is probably the cast, characters are better, that's keeping me engaged a bit more.

 

[Gasometer]

Each to their own; I am invested now and will watch to the end but it’s not up there IMO. I liked Holly. Lack of Bateman another disappointment

 

[Kirby]

I’m not sure that episode really gave us much?

I am now invested in it but yeah, it's moving slower than Lance Whitnall.

Everyone catch the post credits scene?

Spoiler

A fisherman returning to his truck gets shot dead. You don't see the shooter but I assume it's Jack Hoskins.

Thanks mate I missed that.

Thanks, it’s bs, who the hell watches post credits (that’s not a go at you mate)

I know. It was only by chance that I saw it. I usually switch off as soon as the credits start so I don't see the preview for next week.

It's slow, but I find it compelling regardless. But one of my favourite ever shows was Rectify, which makes The Outsider look like Usain Bolt, so take that with a grain of salt.

I thought this week was better.

Smart cookie is that Holly

 

[Fwoy]

And now the hunt is on...

No post credit scene on Foxtel last week... that scene was halfway through this week's episode. Strange.

The scene with him abducting the kid was pretty intense.

you wonder how they could ever finish on top here? No- one will ever believe it no matter what the evidence.

Going to be interesting seeing how they wrap it all up.

 

[kaiserchief13]

I reckon Jack will sacrifice himself to kill it somehow in the final episode

Did the kid's Dad/Grandpa get scratched?

 

[Fwoy]

Did the kid's Dad/Grandpa get scratched?

I thought that too, although it wasn’t spelt out 100%

2 eps to go...

I can see Jack sacrificing himself but I doubt they will kill it. El Coco Pops will get away or it will be left ambiguous to allow for a 2nd season.

 

[Kirby]

Did the kid's Dad/Grandpa get scratched?

Good question. They panned down the camera to the mask in his hand but didn't make it obvious that he was scratched.

 

[drd23]

Binged all 8 episodes over the past 4 days. Steven King and his supernatural mysteries aren't usually my cup of tea, but thought I'd give this a go given a number of the actors involved.

Thought it started well, but kinda lost its way in episodes 5/6/7 - I think having that Latina grandmother spelling out the El Cuco story ruined things somewhat. That said, it really seems to have picked up again in episode 8

 

[drd23]

Did the kid's Dad/Grandpa get scratched?

I think so, although it wouldn't fit with El Cuco's MO judging by the timing of the scratching of Terry Maitland and Claude Bolton
