Berlin e1: This probably deserves its own thread but I’m more into adding into old archives than splitting them up. Besides I think it’s only tg & me that are in on the heist.
Berlin was one of thr most compelling characters in LCdP but what made that show work was that all the characters were compelling. But Berlin was a mastermind, on par with the Professor, and yet a much darker figure, sociopathic, sexually ambiguous, domineering, sadistic and terminal. His arc in LCdP was glorious.
This new show is a prequel, although there’s promise of a returning character, an inspector. The team is new, commanded by Berlin, in a heist set in the Paris catacombs. The new team is sexy and smart and already the chemistry is percolating, but they have a long way to go to catch up to LCdP. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the first ep - it’s good to be back in the heist world.
