Hitmen

Ghastly. Possibly the worst show I have ever seen on TV. Pull it and spare us the agony.

I don't understand how some one can watch a first episode for 10 minutes then dismiss a whole season?

It's quite funny in places, maybe more smiles than guffaws but I liked the show and the two leads work well together, which is not surprising I suppose!

"Hitmen" (S01, 6 eps, 1/2hr, Netflix) is a farcical take on hitmen, er, hitwomen. Our female protags, Fran and Jamie, are one of Mr K's teams of contract killers, though the most hapless apparently. They always nail their mark, but only after sufficient hilarity which is a mix of feminine neuroses and latent lesbianism. Many times I lament that these streaming seasons are too short, but six eps of this is about right, just as it was getting tiresome. The finale should lead to a different type of sophomore season, as they're pursued by Fran's fantasy girl.

With respect to other reviewers, I think you've got to watch an entire episode to make an informed decision about the show. We wouldn't say we love it but it is entertaining, genuinely funny in places.

Struggled through episode 1. Infact turned it off before the end. However, I started it again with a different view and once you get that its not supposed to be laugh out loud hilarious, its supposed to be ridiculous. Then you'll enjoy it more. We shouldn't be taking these shows so seriously. Its lighthearted and fun. I really enjoyed the whole season. I binged watched it haha
