The Day of the Jackal (Peacock/Sky Atlantic) TV Show

Reimagined into a contemporary political setting, this series is based on a classic novel which centres on a ruthless British assassin (Eddie Redmayne), known only as the "Jackal", and the intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch) intent on capturing him.

 

Really great so far. Final two episodes of the season will air tomorrow 12/12.

Probably the best original Peacock has done (even though it is technically a co-production with Sky in the UK). Nominated for Best Drama Series and Best Actor in a Drama series at the 82nd Golden Globes.

 

What's strange is that the show has been renewed for a 2nd season, which slightly defeats the purpose of the show

 

First

 

we'll see how they end the season tomorrow if they set up something cool to continue it.

 

New thread smell mmmm

 

Enjoying the first episode so far minus a couple questions regarding that first kill

 

Finale was good. While I kinda think this COULD HAVE been just one season I more than welcome more of Eddie. I assume it'll be about him getting revenge and whatever kind of redemption arc someone like him can get, and finding his family.

 

Man I am eating this up
