Line of Duty is Ludicrous (but should I watch more?)
Added 2024-12-02 00:00:03 +0000 UTCListen, Line of Duty is quite grim, but also unintentionally hilarious, and I wish to know if anyone can tell me how ludicrous it gets :D
(This is the last of my flurry of shorts, normal service will resume closer to Christmas)

This reminds me of when my wife and I wanted to watch Ray Donovan (because it sounded really interesting), but we could not make it past the first episode :D In our opinion, the main character was both totally unbelievable AND unlikeable, so we did not continue...

2024-12-02 06:19:59 +0000 UTCI've never watched Line of Duty, but my feeling is, when you find all the characters unpleasant and their actions reprehensible, it's time to hang it up.

2024-12-02 04:53:44 +0000 UTCWhat it sounds like you are describing is what I might refer to as a "soap opera". If so, expect many more cases of infidelity, murders, death fake-outs, long lost twins and other imposters, and amnesia. Literally all of the amnesia as plot device. The writers will eventually just start mainlining "Milk of Amnesia" to make the ends meet in the plot. :)
