Pirate here. I've watched some, most is ok. Slow Horses is not a great example, I would have gone with Severance as the poster child.
The content they make has got a good niche in upper middle class and upper class gen-Xers, but to the rest of us, it mostly jusy feels “okay”. Ted Lasso is one of the few exceptions that overperformed beyond that niche.
First season of Slow Horses was fantastic, a breath of fresh air, filling in a place left empty since Tinker Tailor's last iteration. I was stoked and had high hopes, none of the ensuing seasons have been as good, to the point they feel lazy now.
I've really enjoyed every season so far.
I hate that I agree with you. I thought it would be something else and then the first season ended and it was a worse burn notice.
