I thought the show was fucking amazing can't wait for season 2
Watched it all in 1 evening, absolutely loved it!
Me too !!
same
Same
Why is this show not viral??? I'm telling Netflix now, if yall leave us hanging on this, I'm CANCELING MY SUBSCRIPTION!!!!!!😢
I second that motion! It was awesome!!!!
No you’re not. Stop the cap. 🙄
It just came out 10 days ago calm down calm down😂😂😂😂
trust me it is! I heard from word of mouth. People are talkin!
😂 I swear to God I be saying the same shit,be pissing me off giving us good season 1's and no season 2 .
Rapman we need a season 2, this series was A class 👏 love it
AND 3, 4, 5 and so on. I was hooked, not one bad episode nor filler, but 6 episodes was not enough!!!
It’s crazy to hear about the black UK experience and that it’s not too far from the black American experience. He shows that in this great show. Rooting for him!
As a 62 year old woman, I didn't think I would enjoy it but I wanted to give it a chance as it has a black cast, but to my surprise I really enjoyed it.
It is very well written and the acting is superb. I love the way it has been shot- very cinematic. London looked beautiful, even the rough areas. I am very much looking forward to season 2
well done Rapman !!
You tried out a show just because of the race of its cast?
@@JimmyJr630 Yes because it had an all black cast, and as a black British woman brought up in London I wanted to support it.
@@olivecharles4177 Supporting something because of people’s race is racist. But the london thing makes sense
Outstanding series. I hope Rapman goes very far with his career. I think we are seeing the birth of an extraordinary talent.
One of the best shows I’ve watched in a very long time… All of my friends here in NYC can’t stop talking about it… It’s wild how many of the characters seem like they are straight out of NYC!!! Bravo Brethren… Bravo!!!
I was just scrolling on Netflix and came across this show. I'd only planned to watch the first episode...6 hours later, I'm still sitting in the recliner 😮 This show is a Keeper❤
Im an east Texas black kid and you gained a fan. I can't wait for season 2. You knocked this one out of the park.
it's 4am here in dallas tx and i just finished binge watching the 6 episodes. I had to see who Rapman was to give props. I can't think of a more well written and thought out super hero series. I don't know how this interviewer didn't ask when we can expect season 2 though...
Exactly! It was so incredibly well written...and believable! Not corny discoveries or popped out womb sprouting wings. Nothing wrong with that, but this was a super fresh take on superheros from a common sickness among black people....I loved it!
Just binge watched all 6 episodes, now taking a break while making another round of popcorn before start watching them from beginning. No sleeping tonight! This is worthy .
I went to bed at 11:45 pm last night, and got up late for work. IT WAS WORTH IT!!!! I'll do it again for Supacell
I binge watched the whole season it’s 2:30am… gotta get up in a few hours! It was Amazing!!!!
Bro, it's so good. This from a senior aged black American - I hope it blows up.
Proven over and over... when we're left alone to do our thing, people and money always follow. Keep it coming Rapman✊🏿
yes, Yes, YES!!! Truly enjoyed the series. I'm a 57-year old that just "binged" a show. Absolutely good!!! Yes, the timing is right!!! KUDOS!!!
I didn't realize the cat was almost completely black until the 3rd episode. It's a really well written show with fleshed out characters. Reggies background reveal showed why he moved the way he did and it was understandable.
Rapman you are amazing and inspiring.. You have entered Big Time now. I watched you show twice and I was more impressed with the character development, dialogue and polished filmography. Much respect. Season 2 please and more projects
Binging through episodes right now! Amazing to see an all black case and even better is seeing and recognising all the places the show was shot in. Burgess Park and Camberwell, Bermondsey Flats that are just a short walk from me. Really cool to see on screen.
10/10 I usually never even watch movies that’s based in the UK and man this got me wanting to watch everything 😂🔥🔥🔥🔥 and perfect casting
Only 2&1/2 episodes in and I'm HOOKED! Came looking for an interview as I had not previously heard of the series, but SO glad I found it. Immensly entertaining and completely relevant to some important social issues that need more awareness. Already hoping for a season 2.
Excellent acting, plot, subplot and cinematography.
Looking forward to season 2 😉
Phenomenal work that the world needed to see! Please hurry with Season 2
Rapmam is a Genius
Bruh I legit got hooked in the first episode and watched the whole thing in one night. One of the best shows I've seen in a minute. Bravo 👏🏾👏🏾
Incredible series, watching every related interview/review I can find to fill the void since finishing season 1, can't wait for season 2!
Spread the good word everywhere on SM, people! This show is FIRE!!!!
Bro I Just Sat down and watched this show non stop this show is Amazing 🔥🔥🔥 hands down the best show on Netflix or anywhere else like please I beg you Netflix don't screw us over on this one we gotta have continous seasons of this its so many avenues this show can go plus I'm dying to know what happens next
This series is off the hook, all the the actors are super talented. It's keeps me wanting more,can't wait for the second season. I watched the the first season in one day, couldn't stop watching.
This show was amazing couldn’t stop watching! It really resonated with me. And interesting to see how we have a shared black experience.
This was really good I need season two asap
I’m hooked I swear this is fire 🔥. And reppin some of our Jamaican music i admire that blud! ❤❤❤❤❤ mad love ❤️
Excellent! Relevant! Honest! Entertaining! Binged it first day! Looking forward to Season 2❤
I binge this show in one day! 👏🏾 🔥 Ready for season 2!
Waiting on Season two. It was so suspenseful ❤!!!!! I am going to watch it again when season 2 comes out so that it is fresh in my mind 😊
We need season 2 now 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I binged this show in one night! This show was 🔥! I cannot wait for season 2!
Just finished watching and was loving it I always said it will be so sick to make a good London hood sci-fi Netflix better not cancel we need season 2 They even did the scene in Hoxton my ends one thing you should really do is not give everyone every season release the each every 2 week was so hard not to bin wach it
just finished the szn Show was Gas we need that szn 2
Thank you for touching bases on Sickle Cell. I have a warrior myself
OMG- for real "LOVE island" comment this is such a good show!
watched it all in one go into the am hours last night. You nailed it. You bridged culture and color while creating an entertaining show with a hook that caught me like a fish. Great job, I hope you get cleared for season 2.
Awesome show! Great story and message! Can't wait for next season!
A really well done stuff. Well written characters, well written story. The whole thing is consistent, well acted out and plot-driven. This is how you write tv shows.
I also liked attention to detail, especially where it comes to linguistic side of it.
Lastly, I appreciate the fact there is no bend towards virtue signaling in this show.
I loved this show sooooo much I'm ready for a season 2 please continue writing and this show you're blessed ❤
I love young Rodney marketing genius good hustler. I love the show and all the characters but Rodney hustle just touched me
Bruh i sat and watched the show all the way through i couldnt even take a break between episodes. The show is excellent and its great that its so relatable even being from america i can still relate to the cast its awful that we are all going rheough the same things in life no matter where in tge world we are but its dope that we know we arent alone and we have brothers and sisters that can relate to us thousands if miles across the ocean
I've watched it twice and going back in for a third time. Great show 👏🏾
Bravo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 this show is phenomenal! The acting, directing and writing is top tier. Season 2 and 3 let's go!
Cannot WAIT for Season 2! Show is just 🔥🔥🔥
He said it took 4 years to make this show, which is only 6 episodes. That's why the quality is so high. My hope is "Hurry up with season 2!!!!!" outcry and any pressure from Netflix itself are ignored so we get another quality season.
A good example would be Mad Max Fury Road, then Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga releasing 9 years later. If another MM film had been churned out 1-2 years after Fury Road we wouldn't have gotten such a beautiful film this year.
I need seasons 2-8 ASAP!
It was very entertaining!! Netflix betta greenlight a second season!!!!
I think whats good about Taze, is he's not just some random lex luthor villain who comes out of nowhere, he was made, and he wasnt made by bad parents , thats a lazy conceit, he was made by society and hustling to survive as a young afro-english man in a society that doesnt care about him, leads him to the path he's on. I feel like theres a redemption arc starting up, excited to see where this leads.
Thanks for sharing 👍
💜💜💜💜💜
I was reluctant to watch it but it was dope!! Loved it!!!!
It was a great show needs a part 2. Thought the girl overacted when she found out about her death but over all great actors!
Absolutely amazing!!❤
It was like 2 episodes in we just watching PEOPLE LIVE....Them boom it went up! I loved it. The effects were so real life.
It's definitely a great show. I'm looking forward to see how far it goes. Fingers crossed at least 6 seasons
Good show!
Need season 2 and more episodes
season 2 bro we need we are waiting
Show was mind blowing brethren ❤🔥🔥
This was lit wish it was 8 or 10 episodes
Well done!! 👏 👏 👏 👏
Watching it currently. Its amazing
The first black super hero I saw in a film was Hancock back in ‘08. I was disappointed because he was drunk and homeless (not surprisingly). But a black Avengers show? I’ve never seen anything like this. Also, Rapman didn’t butcher the narrative that blacks are gangbangers. Sure, he included it, but he also offered the alternative black lifestyles which aren’t too different from whites (just less opportunities). This is the perspective that other black shows don’t offer. I look forward to season 2.
The show is spoken IN English… But I still needed subtitles because wtf…. 😂😂😂😂😂
This was the best show ever need alot more seasons
I hope Neflix doesn't try to control his creativity.
I love this was going to watch until my son was like mom let watch it together and we fell in love with stand watch the whole season we need a couple more season
Such a great show!!! I binged it in 1 day
Yes, there's a lot of moral compass with a character I created that robs, steals and sells drugs! smh
I'm inspired ❤
Incroyable j’ai adoré ❤
Exciting and excellent show season 2 please
Great show
I loved it ❤😊
The show is amazing, I binge watched all 6 episodes. One question though, why Micheal didn't go back in time to save his girlfriend when she was shot, when he saved all the others just minutes before?
He tried to prevent it happening, but it still happened. After she was shot, he tried to use his power, his eyes flickered, that’s why he ran instead
Power needs regeneration time, you can’t just infinitely forever use power non stop! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Netflix buy anything
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
I don’t know why every white person is saying they showed us as bad? It’s just a movie and i don’t think that is what is running through the minds of those watching it. The wind woman when they brought them in and the other one was white, spud is white and he’s on the good side. The movie portrays both good and bad sides of humans whether black or white.
Rapman used those around him, the others working behind the scenes to even produce the movie are mostly white from behind the scenes clips. If they had shown black people with all the technology, it would still have been a problem.
So, let’s leave race baiting aside and enjoy a beautiful movie. Would it have been better if the boss was black? People and the media are already labelling the movie as a black people movie just because of the main characters, some are even mixed race, spud is 100% white. They should all be ashamed of themselves for race baiting. Please get off your high horse and enjoy the movie.
Love the show but the antagonist can be diverse.... you know like they can be blk Republicans....but when kraze said... what did the boss say...I knew she was going to be wyt and blonde
You're saying a black republican as the villain?

I don't know what others are thinking and if my horse is high than that's for me ... but it's that you yell this at me from the same horse..... Got hypocrisy!
Race will always be an issue....racism will always be active..... Acceptance is a principle. ... I can't say stating that most of the people behind the scenes is wyt helps your case but that's always the case or he would have made a point of talking about it. I'm talking about the diversity of our community... Republicans, Environmentalist, Vegans, Pro Black, BLM..... We are not monolithic..... Sit tight in saddle less you fall off your High Horse
Allow the bootlicking
It was mid at best!!!!
