Without spoilers, can anyone who's watched it all say if this comes to a proper conclusion? Or did it end on a cliffhanger in Season 3?

Amazon cancelled it after 3 seasons

The premise and reviews for it look strong

Just finished it last night. The main plot lines for season three were resolved, so yeah, you can watch it and not be left cursing at being left in mid air, story wise. Having said that, there was definitely room left to carry on into future seasons. I found it very likeable and wouldn’t mind seeing more.

Anyone I recommended to liked it, well worth the time.

I was watching before season 3 came out and from what I remember it was pretty much a given it would be the last season before it was confirmed as such.

A reasonable ending I'd say too no cliffhangers to worry about. Saying that Season 3 isn't quite as good as the previous but its still decent.

The poster who scoffs at production values based on a snippet on the first episode they can barely remember ya id ignore that, the first season actually cost like 100m to make!

Agree with all of that. The remark about low production values puzzled me too. I honestly didn’t see it. It didn’t look any cheaper than Breaking Bad, or any other mainstream American show to me.

Yeah the main stories are wrapped up. I agree, I really liked it and would have liked to have seen more

I remember it started out well but in the last couple of episodes there was a twist and turn too far

Man Vs ManUre

Dark season 1 and 2 are exceptional. I would rate season 3 (final season) as only good purely because it was so difficult to understand the storyline.

Agree. Didn't finish it. I liked Collateral (with Carey Mulligan), Unforgotten and Hinterland.

The bridge is very good.

Does anyone know where you can stream the newer Battlestar Galactica series these days?

I watched it about 5 years ago and really enjoyed it, and wouldn't mind watching again....

Loved Bodyguard, very surprised to see some of the comments on here.

+1 but I thought S03 was fantastic and the show had an exceptional ending. It is very had to follow but it also has great rewatch value imo.

It is, but you started this thread and it was recommended on the first page so you shouldn't just be discovering it now

Not sure if anyone's mentioned it but there's a brilliant french police series called spiral or engranages. it's honestly one of the best shows I've seen in years. It finished up with 8 series earlier that this year

Shows I would reccomend away from the usual picks:
-Sons of Anarchy
-ZeroZeroZero (excellent)
-Line of Duty
-The night of (An often overlooked gem)
-The Blacklist (My guilty pleasure, James Spader is fantastic)
-Mindhunter (one of the best shows I've ever watched)
-Manhunt: Unabomber
-True Detective Season 1 & 3. (Season 1 is one of the greatest piece of television ever made, a must watch)
- House of Cards (really enjoyed the first few seasons but went to sh!te after)

Probably missing a lot here that I can't think of, but these are my personal picks away from the usual top shows like the sopranos etc.

Thanks bosco.

Started watching ZeroZeroZero the other night and it's the best show I've seen in a while.

The cinematography is top class, and the casting is excellent.
