2. Bus
3. Other conveyance?

I think they wrote themselves out of a show here. Only so many things you can hijack.

What do you think?

S02E03 is taking a comedy turn, "plant based, greenwashing" - what are the chances that from tens of thousands of professions we have a sustainability consultant right in the center of a train hijacking, lol.

Totally irrelevant to the story "btw, I'm a vegan and there is a greenwashing going on", thank you, till the next time

Boring and dumb.

Tedious too.

Oh, and its mostly in German. Yippee.

Pass

Will watch a couple more episodes in hope that they did all the mandatory bs in the first one and now we can get to the actual show.

The start of the S02E01 was simply criminal Ohhhhh, noooo, how dare you to profile one of 3.5 most likely sources of terrorism in Germany And for idiots that even was spelled out, just in case somebody was about to miss THE MESSAGE

But the twist at the end of the episode compensated that bs. Tho plot already is like a Swiss cheese.

▼Spoiler

You can stop trains remotely. When emergency brake is triggered, train stops in all cases, you cannot override it without stopping. Also not long ago one German airline pilot did a suicide with extra steps and crashed the plane into a mountain. That + their Allahu akbar surprises pretty sure means that they have brutal paranoia procedures if some train guy starts to act shady.

P.S. siderodromophobia

Really?

The entire first season could have been told within a 2 hour window. It felt too drawn out and long. And considering what season 2 is about. What is Season 3 going to be? Car, bus, boat jacking?

I finished season 1. Love the main guy. But won't participate in season 2 and doubt there will be a 3.

But the twist at the end of the episode compensated that bs. Tho plot already is like a Swiss cheese.

Idris Elba, Archie Panjabi, Max Beesley? They can make a show about paint drying patterns and I will watch it.

Elba I knew from "The Losers", then Marvel - Like him

Looking the others up on IMDB...

Panjabi - Oh, Nas from Blindspot.  Yeah, ok.  Won't hold playing The Rani in the failed seasons of Doctor Who against her

Max Beesley - No Idea.  I watched Strike Back back in 2015 but 10 years ago and don't remember him (maybe a short role?).  And "Homeland" was even further back.

I could get behind a season 2 of this if he were getting called in, in his capacity as a negotiator to different situations.  But the odds of him being on a hijacked plane and now a hijacked train?  Its just such a freaking stretch.  On its own, good actors, probably a decent script again.  As a stand alone limited series as it was originally intended it would be fine.  In the totality of the universe they are making it doesn't add up.

Or... Put in a different lead character.  One guy was one a hijacked plane, and a totally different guy on a hijacked train but keep the common thread of someone with brains and skills... Maybe a police detective... ex-Army... something.

Yes, and yes. I'm skeptical, but optimistic.

I thought this was a limited series ...to continue storywise feels weird. This hardly works in movies (Speed 2) and even less so in tv shows.

But trailer looks decent, let's give it a go.
