I don't recall the previous 4 seasons using continual character stupidity in order to move the plot forward but it's been awhile since I watched season 4 and I haven't rewatched any. Season 5 isn't terrible but it seems lacking in sophistication. yeah, this one has been a bit of a letdown. like they are running out of steam
October 26Oct 26 I'm one ep into season 3. This is a show I virtually ONLY watch when I'm on a plane. So it's taken me like a year and a half to get this far as I couldn't get the wife to buy in. It's so good, I have to lock in.
October 26Oct 26 I'm really starting to like the guy playing Coe. He's one creepy looking bastard. Edited October 26Oct 26 by WBT

October 27Oct 27 I finally got caught up in time for the finale. The caulk gun sniper rifle was cool. I've read the books so I knew the paint can to the dome was coming but I still laughed.

All the above and we get Hugo Weaving back, another great character. This may be my favorite show going right now.
October 30Oct 30 "Oh cheer up, I'd rather go to jail than date Roddy Ho" Fucking lulz Also, I fucking hate Whelan. That dude is so incompetent, he should be an American appointee. Great head of hair though, which I appreciate more and more as I age

October 30Oct 30 Jackson Lamb is my spirit animal. One of the best characters on TV. I love this show and can’t wait for season 6.
October 30Oct 30 Jackson Lamb lists his version of the Five Fs as a darkly humorous profanity: "Who the fuck, what the fuck, where the fuck, and why the fuck?" To which, when corrected that that is only four Fs, he replies, "Fuck off! That's five!".
October 31Oct 31 This was the first season where a character dies in the book but they didn't follow it in the show. Herron has mentioned regretting killing off so many Slow Horses. Maybe he asked them to keep him/her.

October 31Oct 31 I'm 3 eps in on season 5. I don't recall the previous 4 seasons using continual character stupidity in order to move the plot forward but it's been awhile since I watched season 4 and I haven't rewatched any. Season 5 isn't terrible but it seems lacking in sophistication.I love the show but this was my least favorite season because the bad guys were a bit generic and MI5 was over the top incompetent. Whelan is a beating, and I get that he’s supposed to be a lackluster character, but his scenes felt like network television slop.The previews for next season look great. Have they already filmed the entire season?
October 31Oct 31 Season 5 was pretty light and fluffy.. just finished it and i hardly remember anything about it. There was probably a bit too much of Slough House always showing up a the right time and at the right place this season. and yeah, we got hit a bit too hard on the head with the hammer in regards to the the incompetent male at 1st desk contrasted with the competent female at 2nd desk.

Honestly, even a down season of Slow Horses is better than most of the shit out right now, but Whelan was a fucking joke, and completely distracted from the show. Next season looks legit
December 10Dec 10 This is definitely one of my favorite shows. I blew through this last season is about 3 days.

She's also incompetent, at the spy stuff at least. Pretty good at cya. London rules vs Moscow rules. Edited December 11Dec 11 by WBT
