On Amazon Prime

Very good, BB Thornton plays a drunk lawyer taking on a mega corporation. Sounds like a cliche but its very well done and very funny in places - highly recommended.

watched the first four episodes and I enjoyed it some nice sub plots and WTF moments so far.

I think there’s another Goliath thread somewhere but I couldn’t find it.

I enjoyed series 2 but not as much as 1 really, so many ott characters and a bit of an anticlimactic ending. I had to check to make sure it wasn’t just a series break at the end. Well set up for a third season if that’s the plan though.

Agreed. Btw I thought there was a bigger thread than this on the series’s well but couldn’t find it either. Odd as it certainly something that would appeal to many here

THere is another thread, it's about the same size as this.

It sounds ace, but it's not in real telly, so sadly out of my purview. biggrin

I thoroughly enjoyed S2. S1 probably better but still very much worth watching.

RE the ending

On reflection I thought it was actually quite deep. It's sad, in a way, because it represents the fact that justice doesn't always happen, and the bad guys often get away with stuff. We all want a nice happy ending where the rather pretty mayor gets found out and put away, her rather evil brother gets put away or killed off etc....but it doesn't happen; just like in life some times.

I've binged S2 around the football this week and really enjoyed it, hoping for a third. Billy Bob has been fantastic in this role and the supporting cast is good too. Surprised more people aren't watching it!

Late to the party as always, but I've just watched S1 & S2 of this and I've really enjoyed it, and my god, the girl who plays Brittany cloud9

Looking forward to getting stuck into S3 now, I believe Dennis Quaid is in it, hopefully it's as good.

I’m sure there’s another thread where we were talking about season 3.

I thought season 4 was out when I saw “Goliath” pop up again. hehe

The Forecaster

The story of Martin Armstrong, once a US based trillion dollar financial adviser, used the number pi to predict economic turning points with precision. When some big New York bankers asked him to join the club to help them to take over Russia, he refused to join the manipulation. Documentary, with some big holes, but the actions of US justice system beggars belief. Worth it if you are in to this kind of thing, but leaves a lot of questions unanswered.
