60 of 271 · most liked firstReally enjoyed the limited series LEGENDS on Netflix, which is about a scrappy band of British customs agents working undercover to stop a huge drug deal in the 90s. Shades of the Night Manager season one, Little Drummer Girl (another excellent limited series!), and The Bureau.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Night Manager is a great show but completely unwatchable on Amazon with a 2 minute ad break every 10 minutes. I’m just gonna cancel Prime instead. What is it with Bezos? He’s a trillionaire. What is enough money for these f****** assholes?

neutral · AI labelView post →Publishing a review of the Night Manager episode one, continuing the story from the original John Le Carre series. It's not quite the same thing, but Tom Hiddlestone is still good and I've not given up hope that stars Olivia Colman and Hugh Laurie will return. 3/5 film-authority.com/2026/02/01/t...

neutral · AI labelView post →Loved the first season of The Night Manager. Didn‘t know it was coming back. One episode in, and I’m already highly confident that I’m in good hands. This show manages a sense of opulent menace like few things out there.
positive · AI labelView post →We watched the first two episodes of The Night Manager on holiday on one of those tvs. Makes all the effort the production teams put into the filming a waste of time. Looks like it was shot on a phone. Was glad to get home and finish the series on a proper TV.

I sat down with David Farr (screenwriter on The Night Manager and the creator of the second season of the show, which is shooting now) to talk to Mick Brown about writing.

positive · AI labelView post →A major difference between the original TV version of The Night Manager and the sequel is that the first was based on a book informed by years of research into, and experience of, how the world really works, while the second was made by people who neither understand nor care.
