the peaky blinders are back, season 5...so
far so good. new and old stories, i was a
bit worried if they would have enough
material. i like where it's headed.

The season ended pretty nicely too.

i was surprised a character that i thought died, showed up. looking forward to
seeing where they take this show, seems like it could be around for a while.

was the Grace ghost stuff. those scenes were momentum killers

the rest was a blast.

Mosley is a great "villain".

This show does so many things that shouldn't work but they do.
I normally hate the use of contemporary music in a period piece but somehow it feels right in this show.

Arthur is a such a cartoon but jesus I fucking love that guy.

>was the Grace ghost stuff. those scenes were momentum

Yea that stuff just was useless, I get they're trying to show Tommy losing his grip on things but it would be better just to put him back on opium.

>Mosley is a great "villain".

The best villain on the show since Tom Hardy. I was surprised it was one of the Hunger Games folks. Dude was killing it the entire time and knowing the history of Oswald Mosley and British fascism, just made it that much better. He leaned into that shit to the point I thought son was Henry Cavill at first

Man FWMJ tweeted about that, guess they got budget upgrade and it works.

>Arthur is a such a cartoon but jesus I fucking love that guy.
How can someone not love Arthur. He's a total loon, but fuck if he isn't entertaining.


Can I just leave a little shout out to Polly though? That's a bad woman. I was sorry to see Little FInger go, with her son being a dick with his mob'd up wife Polly needed that win.

I abandoned this show years ago in Season 2 or 3 and just went back and binged all of it. I’m glad I went back to it.
