Started watching Narcos last night - new Netflix series about Pablo Escobar - and it's off to a cracking start.

The styling and tempo seems to be borrowed from Goodfellas, which is no bad thing as long as they can keep the quality up.

great viewing, though a bit cringeworthy at times with the American actors. Think they've got the portrayal spot on.

Cracking show, seem to have it down to a tee with the fear that the Narcos carried out their business, the guy playing Escobar is very good and have seen him show emotion once in the whole thing, powerful stuff. 2 episodes left to watch hope it concludes well, but going by the way the rest of the series has been can't see why it wouldn't.

I have been glued to it all weekend but I am also a stickler for detail so when your wan Vallejo rocks up in a late 90s/early 00s BMW I have to drop marks. This as well as the early to mid 90s Landrover which was borderline. Probably only a small point to pick up on for some people but to me it's like the bottle of water incident with Downton Abbey. :-X

Just seen that in the last episode there, sticks out so much, esp seeing as my brother had one about 10 years ago and it was the current shape then suppose can't all be perfect haha other than that,great show.

Suits is glossy and easy viewing but it doesn't half get repetitive.
