I really hope they don’t cancel this series. I’m obsessed. It is just so ridiculously beautiful. And Lee Pace’s Empire is perfection.

Time is easily the best TV I’ve watched in a while. With such powerful storytelling and beautiful acting, I honestly cannot think of a flaw. All the acting is standout, even relatively minor roles are faultlessly persuasive, but in this Stephen Graham’s performance stood out for me the most. The mixture of humanity, pathos and brutality in this show is truly next level.

All of the component parts are amazing - beautiful scenery, exceptional production values, outstanding actors - and yet something isn’t working here. Maybe it is just that we are meant to believe that Emma Booth lives on fish and chips and beer, or that someone could fall off the Gordon Dam and not be found in various, gruesome pieces.
