I've just started watching Bosch (no, not the spark plugs! but the LA police series based on the books by Michael Connolly). Its on Amazon Prime Video.
Only got through one programme so far, but I enjoyed it. I get the same feel as I do from the books. Seems like the author is a producer so presumably has had a say.

Memento any good - it was. Came out in 2000. The timeline was more mixed up than Westworld.

Yes, finished it last night, sooty. Quite a finale. I think when I started the series I was assuming it would be some brain-out, shoot-em-up affair so I didn't concentrate too much, that in combination with watching it late at night when tired probably wasn't the best plan in retrospect. Also, found it difficult to take Teddy seriously. Anyone with children who has had to watch the Easter film 'Hop' will understand.
More looking forward to Man in the High Castle series 2 now, although the concentration/late night thing will apply to that too.

I know what you mean about needing to concentrate, it's not something you can have on in the background and still follow it. There was a few things in the plot that I don't think flowed right, like mauve's rebellion and it chopped around a bit too much in the timelines but overall i thought it was one of the best tv series I've seen in a while.

The moving around timelines kept you thinking. Early on the man in black's identity was discussed and guessed correctly.
I'm not sure it need a second series. But revenues generated suggest it was always going to have a sequel.
I think you'd need to watch it all again to figure some things out.

I thought the switching timelines was a little ott at times, for me anyway.

It certainly confused the missus. Last night she said how she was looking forward to Man in the High Castle series 2, and Westlife (sic) had too much nudity in it. I didn't have the heart to tell her.
