Top Boy Series 3 Discussion Thread | (Netflix)

[FaTaL]

If season four is given the go-ahead by Netflix (which, let’s face it they’d be silly not to), Ashley admits it likely won’t hit screens for a while. So brace yourselves for another long wait...

Well we waited like 4-5 years, 1-2 will be easy

If it is only 1-2 years. Mandem ain't getting any younger.

By the way check out the new film Blue Story. I saw it the other week. I thought it was just gonna be your average, run of the mill, unoriginal hood flick but it's actually quite good. They tried to ban it in some cinemas but after protests, it got reinstated but it's the highest grossing 'urban' movie in the UK to date. It's got Michael in it and that fat dude he was rolling with in Top Boy.

Might be a dumb question but is watching the old series worth it? Should I start directly by the 2019 version? Is there links between the series or it's just the same name?

Would you watch the wire or any other series starting from its third season? I refuse to believe nikkas on this site are this retarded.

On Netflix it is not presented as season 3 of what they call "Top Boy: Summerhouse", but as a standalone show. Which naturally led me to believe it could maybe be a remake or a follow up without heavy scenaristic ties. But just to be sure, I asked.

I don't think that any of that makes me retarded but it sure was a perfect occasion for you to establish yourself as a dumb nikka KIM and don't quote me again.

oh boy...not this dumb ass stance again...the first two seasons of top boy are only 8 episodes in total and there was a 6 year gap between them and the new season...the creators even went so far as to rename the first 2 seasons to somewhat distinguish it from this new one...on the other hand the first 2 seasons of the wire are 25 episodes across the span of 2 years...long story short one would not be anywhere near as “lost” skipping the first 2 seasons of top boy as they would skipping the first 2 seasons of the wire...it’s a god awful comparison...he should watch it for fun cuz it’s a brief but decent watch...but he should not feel “compelled” to...he’d miss out on some things but not enough to detract from the new season

just watch it from the start

its the same show, the reason they changed the name is because of legal reasons and its a completely different production company now making the show

 

[old pig]

I’ve already watched it and I even advised dude to do the same simply bcuz it’s a short and decent watch...I’ve said that several times...but @ 4 episodes apiece the seasons are extremely short...and as intense as it was there’s only so much content packed in it so I have a pet peeve w/ dudes acting like you’re missing out on the world if you skip the first 2 seasons of a series that took a 6 year hiatus...comparing it to skipping out on the first 2 seasons of the wire is silly and overdramatic (not directed @ you)

I didn’t read any of this. I know your stance. Everyone here disagreed with you. You are wrong. Don’t tag me again.

I’ll ask you again, would you start from season 3 of the wire or any other popular series?

well then your “non weirdo” ass needs to realize I’m not “tagging” you if you have alerts for when folks respond to you...I’m pretty sure the “99%” would agree w/ that lol...and you’re absolutely reading this just like you read my other posts...anyone thirsty enough to have alerts for responses is gonna read them
