Topic: Boat Story

https://next-episode.net/boat-story

https://static.next-episode.net/tv-shows-images/huge/boat-story.jpg

When two hard-up strangers, Janet and Samuel, stumble across a haul of cocaine on a shipwrecked boat, they can't believe their luck. After agreeing to sell it and split the cash, they quickly find themselves entangled with police, masked hitmen, and a sharp-suited gangster known only as 'The Tailor'.

At its heart, Boat Story is an action thriller about two ordinary people whom the world has turned its back on, and whether they're willing - or desperate enough - to do something crazy to get what they want in life. Pushed to the very edge, can they trust each other and get away with their lives and the money?

As I write this, we are three episodes (of six) into the series. Incredible. Imagine Wes Anderson meets Quentin Tarantino and you start to get the idea. Weirdness, humour, extreme violence, romance. What a combination and written to perfection. I have no idea where this is going, but I am looking forward to the journey!

Re: Boat Story

I liked it quite a bit. I'm generally a fan of the normal person being incompetent at crime genre.
