@EmilDavletbaev: That's what I'm saying, by accident :I downloaded the series from piratbay, of course, I didn't look at the download date, I'm starting to look... And I understand that something is wrong... :D
@ArthurAkberdin: that's how I'll watch the real episode of the newest series, then maybe the opinion will change) It was the British first series that caused such associations. I'm going to die of my stupidity once again, I should have been so fucked up..
@Fox_Leigh: by the way, in the contact group about the series, they recently posted a series with English subtitles) I have to get up in six hours.. Yes, it's probably the best time to watch the series.
@kukakusha: I am glad that I am not the only one.. The loser :D but I liked the American one more. Maybe it's because I'm terribly in love with Elijah Wood. Or in the wonderful voice of Samuel Barnett.. *in love*
@Fox_Leigh: awesome)) I also watched the British version, it turns out))) most importantly, I read the comments here, but downloaded another one by mistake..I'm sitting here waiting for Elijah Wood the whole episode! ))))))
but the British version is good..it looks like Sherlock) maybe I'll watch it to the end))
the series is very interesting and funny. nothing is clear yet, but the characters that have been revealed, i.e. Dirk, Amanda and Todd, are very cool. Dirk is amazing, and I already love him! the dialogues of the minor characters also make you smile. It's nice that the events of the books (divan and Thor) were mentioned at least in passing. I want to mention the soundtrack separately. It was written by Cristobal Tapia de Veer, the author of the soundtracks for the TV series "Utopia" and "Humans", as well as for the film "The Girl with All the Gifts". at the same time lyrical and dynamic, the composer's handwriting is immediately recognizable, it's great that he is working on the musical accompaniment to this series! we can say that 6 weeks before the release of the first series, I already knew that this was my new favorite series :I hope and believe that it will not disappoint in the future.
@NaruHinka: Initially, where Elijah Wood plays, go straight to the furnace! It's disgusting to look at his pained face after Wilfred and the Lords,,, and now here! Except Hooligans 2005
A magnificent series, swept through like a hurricane of events! Indeed, little is clear yet (especially if you don't read books), what kind of kitten and dog (and its owners?), why would that guy from rowdy 3 take a photo of Todd's sister, and also what he saw on the 18th floor of the hotel? Did it seem to me that the second person is Dirk too? Well, judging by the promo photos and his clothes. I was really looking forward to the series because of Barnett and, of course, he did not disappoint, he is incredibly good in such a role. I already really like all the main characters, these funny detectives.. In general, we will wait further with: P.S. The song "first things first" at the end, seriously? I've been listening to her for the last month. What a coincidence ahah
The moment when I recognized the Brit by one "Hi")) I liked it so far, we are waiting further. I won't even compare it with the British version. It's just two different series.
P.S. imho it seems that Todd was never ill, but stupidly pulled money from his parents
I do not know what I just watched, but I liked it! In the process, the question constantly arose, "What was that?" By the way, this question is also repeated all the time in the series) Elijah Wood was pleased with his appearance, and I'm just delighted with Samuel Barnett, he's very charismatic! And in general, the British are cool)) In general, I really hope for the next series, maybe it will be clearer later)
the incendiary series. how many events. There are so many invisible threads that connect these very events. and what kind of energy is inspired by all these scuffles, running, fights, etc. and how many questions at the same time. It's clear that the episode is the first and they won't tell you anything like that right away. but for me, the biggest mystery is Dirk Gently himself. It feels like he's something special. and Dirk's canary jacket will remind you of itself for a long time.
@ArthurAkberdin: It's not clear to me why everyone needs Dirk so much. One of them wants to kill him. Others are following him because of something important related to himself, as if he were a valuable resource. The third gang, apparently, was also looking for him, but for a different reason.
I understand that everything will be told later. but the last one haunts me. but the most important thing is what exactly this gang did to him. It was as if they had pulled something out of him.
@Doctor_SD: The series is only based on the books, but there are references. I watched the English version a few years ago - it looks more like a film adaptation, but, unfortunately, it's not as interesting as the first episode of the new series. I hope it will continue in the same spirit with a general humorous tone and funny nonsense.
It's messy, but the characters and actors are interesting. It also really pisses me off when some characters are made so stupid. Well, the soundtrack is cool, yes.
It's just fucking amazing. It's been a long time since I've had so many emotions from the series. A kind of mixture of Utopia and a Preacher. From the first, there is a plot and a composer, and from the second, a bunch of strange personalities and a similar degree of pizdets.
@woodson: here, it also reminded me of them, utopia is also the color of Dirk's jacket, the association immediately goes. An unrealistically good pilot, I haven't received such emotions from the first episode for a long time. Compared to the British version, the tower, although that was not so bad.
I'M YELLING! That's how it should have been originally, as a continuation of Dirk's story - worthy, but how the British had distorted the books before... Poor Douglas, in a word...
I found out about this series by accident, because Elijah Wood advertised it a couple of days ago at Colbert's. And it's DIVINE!! I just missed something so crazy and crazy, wow!
This is the best pilot I've seen this year! Just a bombastic start! From the moralizing of the old FBOvtsa, he just faded into his voice)))) I haven't laughed like that in a long time)) kvk translation, I recommend it.
It's brilliant! Even if I hadn't known that the series was based on Adams, I would still have caught his spirit. An intriguing and inspiring, but at the same time completely light and funny sight. By the way, Dirk himself seemed to me a little like Doctor Who in character, there is some extravagance in him. So, probably, his fans will like the series.
@Amy_Caulfield: You are very well connected with the Doctor, since Adams partly based Dirk (the books, of course) on his work in Doctor Who — the series "City of Death" and "Shada". It even has its own timelord) You can read the novelization of the School of Data Analysis on this topic.
@Amy_Caulfield: Before watching the episode, I just read a rumor that they want to hire a young actor for the role of the Doctor again. And then this episode. And I thought, here's a ready-made Doctor.
The pilot is gorgeous. I wanted a second episode right away. The role for Elijah Wood is just perfect. Samuel Barnett subtly resembles all the Doctors put together :) In general, it's promising, I hope they won't merge.
By the way, who would be interested - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6avaIKaMVF4 . About the difficulties of film production in Vancouver using the example of this series :)
An amazing pilot! I just fell in love with the main characters from the very first minutes! The terribly charismatic Dirk, and the eternally surprised and depressed Tod (Elijah is perfect in such a role), with whom I was freaking out from what was happening)And the secondary characters are all very bright, in general, I enjoyed watching them very much! It's a very unusual plot, I've never seen anything like it before, but now I want to read Adams' book))
I would like to draw an analogy with another work by Douglas Adams. There's a book called The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It's a great book. She has two film adaptations: an old British one and a fresh semi-American one. The old one is simply amazing, completely conveys the atmosphere, corresponds to the plot and conveys the character of the book. (except for the blonde scientist). The new one is bullshit. Just about nothing. The best jokes are forgotten, the characters are not the same, but it is made closer to the people, and to the American people. I see the same situation with Dirk. Is the doctor popular? Let's make another doctor and name him Dirk! And his assistant has no right to be at least minimally successful, people love losers, etc. That's not at all what the pilot expected.
@Unovia: I agree that everything is generally wrong and wrong) and in the second series, some kind of game is also introduced, but just in isolation from the books and the British series, it's very good.
@Unovia: Are you talking about the 80s TV series based on the first two books? And where is Douglas Adams flashing his naked ass? :) Yes, that show is great. Despite the absolute wretchedness of the special effects. In the 2005 version, I liked only the robot Marvin. Although I like both Sam Rockwell and Martin Freeman. But the general atmosphere is not the same at all. And Ford is a Negro :)
@Unovia: I won't mess with you. It's just that the new Marvin is just a sample of despondency :) I just have this image 100% rolled in. That's exactly how it was supposed to be. And the visual component is already secondary.
It's very reminiscent of Doctor Who, especially the behavior of Samuel Barnett's character, and the confusion of what's happening, coupled with the fact that it's not fucking clear. It looks like an interesting possible alternative to Doctor Who, I hope they succeed, Elijah Wood is great as always.
I have not read the original, I have not watched other versions, so nothing prevents me from enjoying what is happening with all my heart. I love Wood dearly, this is the first time I've seen Barnett, but his accent is something. Dynamically, cheerfully, from the first shots, the plot, the intrigue, the corpses, and even the cat are in your face.
Hmm, something new for me, among the already boring super-heroes and TV series... It's very strange that I watched the 2nd episode and was sure that the series was British, but after watching it I saw BBC America... The series seemed to me like a mix of Sherlock and Doctor Who!) We will definitely look at it!
It's a very strange series, but I like it. The whole episode I asked her the question "What the hell is going on here", it's just some kind of brain explosion.I'm looking forward to the next episodes.
What did I just watch? it's strange, incomprehensible and, at the same time, incredibly interesting! I actually turned it on just to see what kind of series it was, but after the elevator doors opened on the 18th floor, I couldn't tear myself away until the very end of the episode. and what kind of dialogues are there! Everyone can be quoted: "Who is this? what's happening? - the wild trio. "but there are four of them!" - do you think I do not know!" P.S. Dirk in his yellow jacket is just lovely)
An unconventional approach to life situations is nice. Dialogues that are interesting to listen to and even more interesting to think about. Vivid characters and the choicest absurdity. Just the way I like it. I'll have to watch)
I only read the first book a long time ago, and my impressions were contradictory - a lot of gorgeous individual plots, episodes and characters never intertwined into something whole. And at least the pilot of the series successfully embodies this whole mess. Well, we'll see what happens in the end.
And I'm not mistaken, did Todd see the missing girl at the address where he took the dog?
Where is Jessica Hyde? And here she is, found! The crazy madness is back, but if Utopia only had the first episode, it's like they're going to go crazy all season, and that's fine. I used to think that Adams would never be properly filmed. But here you go.
It's very unusual, it's such a high-quality three-wheeler, but at the same time: with great humor, interesting characters and a slightly crazy atmosphere. In general, full of wines!
I came across the series by accident and was very pleasantly surprised.What is it! I'm more than surprised, I'm thrilled! Rather, I'm watching the following episode: episode 3
In fact, I regretted that I started watching this series before waiting for all the episodes to be released. Because watching him ongoing will be an indescribable torment. It's crazy to want to watch everything at once, because I've been waiting for a week with thoughts in my head (what the fuck was that just now????) It's hard.
@Bashkinator: Well, that's exactly what the discrepancies are. How simple a series would be better. As the stranger thing did not write that they are based on super 8, although it is very clear where the legs grow from)
What kind of trash is this? The first thought that came to me after watching the episode. Meanwhile, I really liked the pilot, the charisma of the main characters did its job. It's just impossible not to fall in love with him.😏 The very idea somehow reminded Doctor Who: some kind of weird dude (I am from a very different place. England) comes to you and invites you to meet adventures. And of course, there were some associations with Sherlock (I am not your Watson). I'm looking forward to watching the second episode tonight.
The series tinplate. Everything is gorgeous. But why didn't they (the police) pay attention to the bullet hole in the window and ceiling when they (the police) took the apartment's corpse? They didn't break the windows.
- It's good that you decided to come with me. "I didn't decide. You said you'd kill me if I didn't go. "Anyway, you decided to come with me instead of dying." It's cute.
Everything is very unusual and even crazy, charismatic characters, and it was impossible to stop watching! It's already common to see Wood as a strange loser, but Todd, after meeting Dirk and finding a lottery ticket, may not have lost everything. P.S. The day after watching the episode, I saw a corgi running down the street without a leash. Apparently, there really are no coincidences, and everything happens for a reason x)
What... what was that? I do not even know how to evaluate this series. It's very strange. But it's very interesting. A nuclear mix of Fargo, Doctor Who, Sherlock and Utopia. It's so charming and crazy that it's just impossible to tear yourself away.
@Aspen_Snow: I thought for a long time about what to write, but your comment fully expressed my thoughts! Beautiful, interesting, looks in one go, wow!
There are so many references to Welcome to Night Vale that I just can't believe it's a coincidence! Mysterious people in hoods, the absurdity happening in the city, Dirk just looks like Cecil, mysticism, plus philosophical thoughts at the end (they are broadcast on the radio there). Oh. Cool messed up. Welcome to Night Vale is not so popular here, but I think fans in the USA noticed the similarity :3
@Kaori_Ksenia: The book on which the series is based was released earlier. So then there are links in the Welcome to Night Vale podcast to the book itself. Interesting!
I thought for a long time whether I should start watching the series or not, in the end I decided to include the first episode, and it's bombishly cool!!! I hope the remaining 7 will not disappoint)
What charming nonsense!! I was captivated from the very first minutes *___* Elijah Wood and the other actor are great. Dirk Gently is already attracting attention with his outfit, and his behavior))) If I were Todd, I'd go crazy :D
"Dirk Gently, you're screwed." "who's Dirk Gently?" "Aren't you Dirk Gently? " - Are you kidding me now? Why the fuck did you run away? "You have a machete!" You killed Ratt. "What, you couldn't just say, 'I'm not Dirk Gently'? "
- I came here from another dimension - ... - from England
it's funny, after the last episode, I suddenly noticed that Rowdy 3 is as racially diverse as possible - white, black, Asian, Latin American (probably like many of them, with an admixture of Indians) - and yet no one thinks that they were all crammed into one team for the sake of a quota)) They are perceived as a single whole from the very beginning)))
Something with something! The series that includes the expression "I screamed." In a good way, of course. It's not a damn thing, but it's hilarious. Elijah Wood is pleasing to the eye.
you can immediately recognize a Brit by saying "Hi!"))) what a mix of Doctors Dirk is: he appears from nowhere, does something you don't understand, says something completely ridiculous, drives a blue vehicle for a minute, makes you his companion without asking at all, takes you off to meet adventures, and, of course, someone wants to kill him. and Wood still carries the ring with him and doesn't age. and at the same time I changed Wilfred to a new glitchy friend)))
The whole episode was filled with the thought, "What the hell am I looking at?" but at the same time, that same "tin" did not allow distraction for a second. I really hope that the whole season will not disappoint, because the pilot is just very intriguing =)
An interesting pilot. It turned out to be a bit crumpled, they immediately showed all the main storylines, nothing is clear. But that's the way it was meant to be, right? But the series does not have a long storyline at the beginning. And God bless the British accent. The main actors are well chosen) to be honest, I don't like this style of pretense among the actors (I'm not talking about the main actors, but in general), but in the series it looks very good. And what kind of bullets are these? Shoot twice so that two random people died? I was surprised by a lady who kills almost everyone. Funny relationship between her and Ken. I hope she doesn't kill him.) It's a pity, I didn't watch this series right away, as soon as it came out, I wanted to, but something was not up to it. In general, I recommend it)
"I can't hear you over the radio." - and I'm not talking into her, I'm telling you myself. I'm laughing - the object has been targeted. Shooting? - no. "I'm shooting." * Shot. flew through Todd's room and killed the maniac * to tears drugs
Oh my God, YES! I've been looking for a series to my liking for so long, and here it is, really exciting, ridiculously funny. The cast is awesome, and the picture of the series is bright, pleasing to the eye. Verdict: I like EVERYTHING. Seriously, why didn't I run into him before?
An amazing series! The plot is intriguing, the bright characters are pleasing to the eye. Humor is present, and in some places it borders on madness, and this is a separate plus))) Despite skeptical expectations (as the book is usually better than the film adaptation), the series justifies its existence) What I didn't like was the character of Eli Wood. He certainly played well, but sometimes his weak-willed attitude annoyed him.
Great start to the series! I haven't seen such madness for a long time) All the characters are so diverse and interesting. I liked the catch-up with the machete :D
"So you're not Dirk Gently? " - Then why did you start running? - You have a machete in your hands.
Imagine that it wasn't Gandalf who came for Frodo, but Doctor Who. Who has a blue Chevrolet instead of a Tardis. Anyway, if you're desperate for a sequel to Sherlock and you love Doctor Who as much as I do, then be sure to watch.)
@AersOne: but it reminds me of a story I read on the Internet: A knight wanders through the desert, dies of thirst, sees a lake ahead and a dragon lying next to it. He raises his sword with the last of his strength and runs at the dragon, they fight for an hour, two fight, both fall to the ground in exhaustion. The dragon asks: What did you want? Knight: Drink some water... Dragon: I would drink like that!
I have only one question - why is it so cool?)) the only thing that confused me was the blunder in the first 3 minutes, but these are all small things. plot, jokes, actors, shooting -10/10 You've decided that my company is better than death... it's cute*
To anyone who doubts, the first few episodes may seem completely insane and illogical, but they're not! The series is simply incredible! The characters are just candies: each one is unique and incredibly interesting. All the plots open at the end of the seasons, everything is logical, interesting and very exciting! Just start watching and you won't even notice how you will fall in love with this holistic world!
I wanted to watch it in the background at first, but then I realized that the series deserves a closer look. It's not clear yet, but I'm very intrigued. I wish it would continue like this)
I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that the killer is played by Brad Dourif's daughter. Otherwise I think: who does she remind me of with her way of looking out from under her forehead - Rotten Mouth!
An incredible series. It's only a pilot yet, and already there are so many emotions. It's a strange, messy, but incredibly addictive story. The dynamics are just fire: before you know it, something happens again. I was very pleased with the humor, which is so vital, sometimes absurd and therefore very funny. Surprisingly, by the third minute of the first episode, I realized that I had found a new favorite series for myself. Charismatic actors cannot leave you indifferent to stupefaction, you want to watch and watch them. I'm glad I came across this series, I want to keep watching and not tear myself away. It's incredibly cool.
For those who doubt whether to watch or not: definitely, yes! The first episodes need to get used to the slight absurdity of what is happening. and then everything gets really cool :) The characters and actors are great, there's a lot to laugh about, and most importantly, everything is interconnected!)
Guys who have looked at the pilot and can't decide whether to look further - definitely watch! I only got caught up in the fifth episode, but I got caught up in it! I recommend a nice, humorous (and sometimes dramatic) series.
Nothing is clear - where did he come from, why is this happening, and the most interesting events are developing surprisingly as he was trying to tell us! It's unbelievable.
if I was in doubt for most of the episode whether to watch further, the last two scenes convinced me - yes, it's worth it!
A comment like "WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!" perfectly describes the emotions of watching the first episode. It's like you were picked up and thrown into the middle of a movie, and then 10 minutes later you turned it off. And you end up not understanding anything. Neither what happened before, nor what will happen next, nor what just happened, damn it! I won't say that it just hooked me that I wanted to screw up the whole series at once just out of interest, but I didn't let go of the feeling of understatement and had to watch a few more episodes of xD ZY: Dirk smacks of a Doctor in his essence, let's see who he really turns out to be.;
It looks like everything and nothing at the same time! This is probably the main strength of the series - a bunch of visualized homages to pop culture, but at the same time, subtly and authentically. Backed up by an absolute maelstrom of fun and thrash.
It's not clear at all, but the characters are fascinating from the very first minutes. But my favorite in terms of coolness so far is the killer who has finally moved out. The gentle one! And Zimmerfeld with his eyebrows:D
And, of course, corgis! Corgis always go out of competition.
To be honest, the rating is high, everyone recommends the series unrealistically, but after watching it to the end, I wouldn't say that it's cool, and not everyone will like it, and the rating is too high for me. The first 2 episodes were still interesting, but then they weren't very interesting. Everything is too banal and there is a lot of fiction. Well, really, I would even say the plot and the picture are for children.
I was hooked by what they said here, that the plot is related to time, etc. And yes, it is, but only in the first season, and then everything is too drearily done, as if the plot was written by a student.
People say that the plot is a brain explosion (very complex and confusing). Are you serious? Do you have an IQ of 5? I wonder if THIS is a complicated plot, then what would you say about the plot from the DARKNESS.
Humor is not funny, again for children. In the first season, there were literally 4-5 jokes that smiled and that was it.
There are a lot of holes in the plot. Obscure characters (Where did they come from? Who are they? Why are they doing this?) A lot of unnecessary dialogue. It was possible to do a series of 20-25 minutes rather than an hour.
Generally 2-3 maxims with a stretch of a point out of 5.
Well, actually, you should not forget about the original source. It is made as an adaptation of the book by Douglas Adam Adams. And Adams basically has a peculiar vision))) anyone who has read it will understand))) The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is also a film adaptation of one of his books. It's very difficult to make films based on his books. And then it turned out very well. The series is entertaining and doesn't bother with boring and serious faces. I won't write anything about the second season. But the first one is cool. P.S. This is the second film adaptation. There was another one before that.
After watching it, there's only one question: what did I just watch? I think I'm hallucinating–it's so surreal here. However, the picture is juicy, Elijah Wood is wonderful, the humor is present, so I keep watching! 😆
I feel like I was late with the comment, but I just watched the first episode and I'm thrilled) nothing is clear, but it's very funny and interesting))
Discussion: Season 1, Episode 1 Join the Discussion
214The series has never looked like Sherlock Holmes and Monk
but the British version is good..it looks like Sherlock) maybe I'll watch it to the end))
https://myshows.me/view/12467/
It's nice that the events of the books (divan and Thor) were mentioned at least in passing.
I want to mention the soundtrack separately. It was written by Cristobal Tapia de Veer, the author of the soundtracks for the TV series "Utopia" and "Humans", as well as for the film "The Girl with All the Gifts". at the same time lyrical and dynamic, the composer's handwriting is immediately recognizable, it's great that he is working on the musical accompaniment to this series!
we can say that 6 weeks before the release of the first series, I already knew that this was my new favorite series :I hope and believe that it will not disappoint in the future.
was very strange, and very cool
waiting for the next one :D
I was really looking forward to the series because of Barnett and, of course, he did not disappoint, he is incredibly good in such a role. I already really like all the main characters, these funny detectives.. In general, we will wait further with:
P.S. The song "first things first" at the end, seriously? I've been listening to her for the last month. What a coincidence ahah
at some point, I caught myself on the emotion of "ah-heh-ret ..."
but I liked it)
Absolutely not how I imagined it, so it's even more exciting)))
I liked it so far, we are waiting further.
I won't even compare it with the British version. It's just two different series.
P.S. imho it seems that Todd was never ill, but stupidly pulled money from his parents
In the process, the question constantly arose, "What was that?" By the way, this question is also repeated all the time in the series)
Elijah Wood was pleased with his appearance, and I'm just delighted with Samuel Barnett, he's very charismatic! And in general, the British are cool))
In general, I really hope for the next series, maybe it will be clearer later)
how many events. There are so many invisible threads that connect these very events. and what kind of energy is inspired by all these scuffles, running, fights, etc.

I think I'll get on with the book now.
I understand that everything will be told later. but the last one haunts me.
but the most important thing is what exactly this gang did to him. It was as if they had pulled something out of him.
And the actors fit in more here, in my opinion.
It also really pisses me off when some characters are made so stupid.
Well, the soundtrack is cool, yes.
https://twitter.com/Uptomyknees/status/639536761878769664
From the moralizing of the old FBOvtsa, he just faded into his voice)))) I haven't laughed like that in a long time)) kvk translation, I recommend it.
By the way, Dirk himself seemed to me a little like Doctor Who in character, there is some extravagance in him. So, probably, his fans will like the series.
FUCKING GREAT!
sorry.
but I got four times more than I expected. it seems that this version is three heads higher than the British one.
I can feel the hand of our Douglas Adams.
The role for Elijah Wood is just perfect. Samuel Barnett subtly resembles all the Doctors put together :)
In general, it's promising, I hope they won't merge.
By the way, who would be interested - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6avaIKaMVF4 . About the difficulties of film production in Vancouver using the example of this series :)

And I'm not mistaken, did Todd see the missing girl at the address where he took the dog?
It's like watching a typical American TV series with all the British rigor you could find.
I used to think that Adams would never be properly filmed. But here you go.
It's not a damn clear or linear, but it's absolutely magical, funny and trashy.
I started watching because I really liked the British version at the time. It's certainly more mass production, cute
that is, in principle, everything is fine, but why call him Dirk gently too =)
As the stranger thing did not write that they are based on super 8, although it is very clear where the legs grow from)
But why didn't they (the police) pay attention to the bullet hole in the window and ceiling when they (the police) took the apartment's corpse? They didn't break the windows.
"I didn't decide. You said you'd kill me if I didn't go.
"Anyway, you decided to come with me instead of dying." It's cute.
It's already common to see Wood as a strange loser, but Todd, after meeting Dirk and finding a lottery ticket, may not have lost everything.
P.S. The day after watching the episode, I saw a corgi running down the street without a leash. Apparently, there really are no coincidences, and everything happens for a reason x)
I do not even know how to evaluate this series. It's very strange. But it's very interesting. A nuclear mix of Fargo, Doctor Who, Sherlock and Utopia. It's so charming and crazy that it's just impossible to tear yourself away.
Beautiful, interesting, looks in one go, wow!
And I really can't tear myself away :z
I wonder
Oh. Cool messed up. Welcome to Night Vale is not so popular here, but I think fans in the USA noticed the similarity :3
Although I would argue about Dirk-Cecil :)
Dirk is awesome, Todd is awesome.
Every Holistic Detective has his own Holistic Killer.
and if I kill them - they were my target :D
Очень даже логично)))
Elijah Wood and the other actor are great. Dirk Gently is already attracting attention with his outfit, and his behavior))) If I were Todd, I'd go crazy :D
"who's Dirk Gently?"
"Aren't you Dirk Gently?
"
- Are you kidding me now? Why the fuck did you run away?
"You have a machete!" You killed Ratt.
"What, you couldn't just say, 'I'm not Dirk Gently'?
"
- I came here from another dimension
- ...
- from England
I went to look further))
WATCH it FOR SURE
it's worth it!
and Wood still carries the ring with him and doesn't age. and at the same time I changed Wilfred to a new glitchy friend)))
everything is fine, we're looking further))
@north_winds:
That feeling when I fell in love with the beautiful just now and saw Kalinkin from Smetana TV for the whole episode
THIS IS KALINKIN
:D
- and I'm not talking into her, I'm telling you myself.
I'm laughing
- the object has been targeted. Shooting?
- no.
"I'm shooting."
* Shot. flew through Todd's room and killed the maniac *
to tears
drugs
- What unit did you say you were from?
- Supply. The budget of the operation was only enough for me.
Despite skeptical expectations (as the book is usually better than the film adaptation), the series justifies its existence)
What I didn't like was the character of Eli Wood. He certainly played well, but sometimes his weak-willed attitude annoyed him.
"So you're not Dirk Gently?
"
- Then why did you start running?
- You have a machete in your hands.
E. Wood's persona resembles his character from Wilfred)
Anyway, if you're desperate for a sequel to Sherlock and you love Doctor Who as much as I do, then be sure to watch.)
But let's see how it goes from here. So far, a solid 4
"You have a machete !" You killed Ratt!
- What, you couldn't just say, "I'm not Dirk Gently"?
This chase reminds me of Gerard Butler from "Rock'n'roll," well, remotely
A knight wanders through the desert, dies of thirst, sees a lake ahead and a dragon lying next to it. He raises his sword with the last of his strength and runs at the dragon, they fight for an hour, two fight, both fall to the ground in exhaustion.
The dragon asks: What did you want?
Knight: Drink some water...
Dragon: I would drink like that!
the only thing that confused me was the blunder in the first 3 minutes, but these are all small things. plot, jokes, actors, shooting -10/10
You've decided that my company is better than death... it's cute*
Just start watching and you won't even notice how you will fall in love with this holistic world!
The characters and actors are great, there's a lot to laugh about, and most importantly, everything is interconnected!)
It's unbelievable.
if I was in doubt for most of the episode whether to watch further, the last two scenes convinced me - yes, it's worth it!
I won't say that it just hooked me that I wanted to screw up the whole series at once just out of interest, but I didn't let go of the feeling of understatement and had to watch a few
more episodes of xD ZY: Dirk smacks of a Doctor in his essence, let's see who he really turns out to be.;
But it's gone... We'll take a look
These are the words that came to my mind after watching the pilot episode :D
It's not clear at all, but the characters are fascinating from the very first minutes. But my favorite in terms of coolness so far is the killer who has finally moved out. The gentle one! And Zimmerfeld with his eyebrows:D
And, of course, corgis! Corgis always go out of competition.
I was hooked by what they said here, that the plot is related to time, etc. And yes, it is, but only in the first season, and then everything is too drearily done, as if the plot was written by a student.
People say that the plot is a brain explosion (very complex and confusing). Are you serious? Do you have an IQ of 5? I wonder if THIS is a complicated plot, then what would you say about the plot from the DARKNESS.
Humor is not funny, again for children. In the first season, there were literally 4-5 jokes that smiled and that was it.
There are a lot of holes in the plot. Obscure characters (Where did they come from? Who are they? Why are they doing this?)
A lot of unnecessary dialogue. It was possible to do a series of 20-25 minutes rather than an hour.
Generally 2-3 maxims with a stretch of a point out of 5.
P.S. This is the second film adaptation. There was another one before that.
P.S. And as a VK fan, special thanks for the ageless Elijah!)
What an awesome miracle I just saw.🤪🥳
I think I'm hallucinating–it's so surreal here. However, the picture is juicy, Elijah Wood is wonderful, the humor is present, so I keep watching!
😆
