Titus Welliver's narration of The Burning Room has put me to sleep more than once over the last week and a half, but I finally finished it and am warming to him slightly as a narrator

It's nice to see Bosch, Honey, even Maddie again... but yeah, this season felt really off. They had like six different storylines that would usually be given to six different characters but with the tiny cast, the mains each got 2 or 3 different stories. very weird to have what seemed like the A-story (Bratva) abruptly wrap up mid-season. the Bosch vs. the assassin stuff was terrible, so out-of-place for this show. theme song and incidental music were also noticeably bad

I don't think the show has the budget to actually film his house sliding down the hill

No, but they tried their best with that terrible oil plant explosion shot

maybe I'm picking on it too much though. I would watch another season, it had enough Bosch essence for me

any one else watch the Lincoln Lawyer series?

Yeah, I watched it. It was supposed to be a network show orginally, I think, and it definitely had that feel. But it wasn't terrible.

seven months pass...

Have watched 7 seasons of the OG show over the last few months and had a total blast. Agree that S7 was rushed and a bit of a mess but enjoyed a snarling Bosch handing over his badge at the end. Like a few others have said, I desperately wanted to see more of Bosch (and Captain Reddick) in action but the overriding tone of interactions in the whole show is suppressed rage so it figures.

Things:
- like mark s, I frequently found myself saying 'but he doesn't ever *listen* to Coltrane!
- did Bosch ever sleep in a bed in the whole show?
- I have been learning to move like Jimmy Santiago and
- if there's a spin-off, I'd watch Jimmy just sitting on a bar stool
- where does Edgar by his shirts?

seven months pass...

Normally a new season of Bosch was timed well enough to come out when I was dissatisfied with much of what I've been watching. Not sure if I trust season 2 of Legacy.

three weeks pass...

The Bosch Legacy theme song is even worse than the plot of the first two episodes of Season 2.

I'm really put off by the continual Maddie-in-danger plots. Straight-up women in refrigerators shit.

Actually thought this new season was not bad. Maddie-in-danger story wraps up fast and most of the season is a separate story with some surprises. Theme music is still awful, no fixing that
