Goliath three wasn't too bad. Can barely wait for Jack Ryan two in just over a week

I absolutely loved Seasons 1-4 but I just can't seem to get through Season 5.
I watched 4 episodes when it premiered last year, lost interest and moved on to other shows, then tried to get back into it last week but could only watch about 30 minutes before moving on to something else. Is it just me or did the quality of the story line drop off significantly? And we're back to his Mom, again? Hasn't that been resolved, like at least twice? |

I'll post this over here, as Buehler touted it as a superior Bosch discussion thread.
But I wanted to comment on one of the most subtle and effective bits of directing I've seen on TV, . . . so subtle that it took me until hours after for it to register, then I wonder whether it was purposeful or happenstance. But I think it was purposeful, the more I think about it. As viewers will know, jazz is a big part of Bosch's persona, and makes up a lot of the scoring of the show. But towards the end of season 4, there was a segment with his daughter driving by herself with jazz scoring underneath it, . . . until she stops and turns off the engine and the music stops with it. It was a very effective way, IMO, of establishing that the daughter is developing some of her dad's traits without commenting on it, or barely even highlighting it. It wasn't a musical scoring to the episode, it was the daughter making jazz a big part of her life.

Binged all 10 episodes on Saturday. It was a very good season.

Curious. . . . Do you recognize the scene I'm referring to, and did the gravity of it strike you when you saw it?
It's when she drove off into the desert to find where a certain picture had been taken.

It has become clear, especially this season, the impact her dad has on her even as she tries to fight it (by fighting him) at times. She is slowly becoming her own unique version of him. At least that is the way I am seeing it.

All in all there are several aspects to the show that if you just described them to me I’d think I would hate them. But they work, almost invariably. |

Open question: if it didn't come free with Prime would you pay a subscription fee for Amazon Video?

No. The user interface is reason enough.
