 Anyone watched "Luther"?
I am just starting its third (and final) season. It's a gritty British cop drama starring Idirs Elba. VERY powerful stuff.

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
I started binge watching the first two seasons on Netflix 2 months ago. Pretty good stuff especially when Luther is paired with Alice who seems to be mostly absent in season 2. Hopefully she has more appearances in season 3

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
Yes. I LOVE it. Alice is so fucking awesome. She was in the second season a lot less because of Ruth Wilson's obligation to Lone Ranger. She's not in the third season aside from the last episode but she has a big return that is teased throughout the previous three episodes.
Some of the episodes are super intense and quite a few are legitimately scary.
Idris is also great in this role. I hope the rumored feature adaptation comes to fruition.

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
^But it will be a prequel, so no Alice...

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
I've been mentioning this show here for a couple of years every now and then. It's brilliant.

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
It's on my watchlist. But it's probably going to take a while till I get around to it.

 Re: Anyone watched "Luther"?
Tried it. Could not get into it. Idris Elba is solid, but the series has this hyperbolic, rushed quality. And it relies too heavily on super-cop-is-super moments in which Luther's random predictions and leaps in logic always pan out at the last second.

On the upside, it features two hotties: Rose Leslie and Laura Haddock.
