oh boy, she was so hot. Her character was an ungrateful bitch tho, Laurie did absolutely nothing wrong.

It may have been a little predictable but it was thrilling too. Its not perfect but it has been my favorite this year. Whats yours?

>top cinematography and directing

It was fine, absolutely nothing notable or special about they way any of it was framed or shot though

>well acted all around, Laurie was specially great

Laurie and Tom Hollander were pretty good, Hiddleston was alright and Coleman and the love interest woman were pretty shit

>great pacing until the last episode and consistently good writing

The pacing was all over the place, some episodes went really slowly and others advanced the plot far too quickly. The writing was fucking awful, the characters had poor motivations and the contrivances and lack of logic showed more and more as it went on

>le progressive memes weren't so bad and it was somewhat politically neutral

Literally irrelevant to it's quality

>you love the villain so much you want the main guy to die

So the show literally failed even you then if you did not want the heroic protagonist to succeed against the antagonist who was routinely demonised

Night Manager is pleb shit

Adapting a book with so many characters is not easy and I think while it wasn't perfect it held the tension pretty well, and made you empathize with the characters while presenting a modern world issue.

>So the show literally failed even you then if you did not want the heroic protagonist to succeed against the antagonist who was routinely demonised

Maybe that was not the writers intention.

>Night Manager is pleb shit
It has been this years best show, whats your favorite then?
