I get to try it out on my wife's new iPhone, not as expansive as I would like. Quality wise is a tad better than Netflix but don't expect the quantity factor. Being a Jon Stewart fan so it's no brainer to watch his show. And trust me, if you haven't watched Coda yet, please do so. Anyway I'm here to talk about Slow Horses.

Remember the 80's spy action Sneakers by Robert Redford who lead a bunch of misfits to thwart a conspiracy. This is the updated version of that but with British witty dialogues and a pretty intriguing set-up. Slow Horses is in reference to Slough House where MI5 agents go to when they screw up their career big time. So you have nerds, introverts, weirdos, and not the best of MI5 people all on dead end jobs. That is until a far right extremist group threatens to decapitate a muslim student live on internet. The burnout head honcho of Slough House actually a very capable spy operative who sees what is actually going on and able to outsmart those who is orchestrating the crisis. Pretty good television especially the drought in Netflix at the moment.

One episode in, looks promising. Think with Dennis Lehane name on this, it couldn't be all that bad. Also this is the last time we get to see Ray Liotta. RIP.
