Loved it!!! I'm hooked on the story completely. And I love Vince Vaughn already, but the rest of the cast is pretty darn good. Looking forward to the next episode.

Whey they found the severed arm, I seriously think it could be one of Dexter’s. 😆

Am not a fan of Vince Vaughn, not into watching him doing his thing but Bad Monkey is quite watchable. I’ll continue watching for now — for Yancy/Rosa curios minds and mango popsicles.

Humor can be a personal taste, but to me, a lot of the humor in the script is falling flat, especially the lines delivered by Vaughn, who I usually like. It’s like the script writers are trying too hard.

Who showed up on the beach at the very end? Was it supposed to be someone we know?

[sjankis630]

IMonrey I wasn't sure besides seeing him gun down the former deckhand if we were supposed to recognize him. When they actually showed the side of his face I thought the same as you that they had somehow given us some clue by revealing part of his face but nothing.

Agreed. I enjoyed the first episode and think it has enough to keep me interested, but there was too much "Vince Vaughn patter". It felt forced and took me out of the show.

That’s what I was thinking, it’s one of Dexter’s spares.

I didn’t like the narration and then it turns out it’s the boat captain.

Is Andros an actual island in the Caribbean?  Sounds Greek.

It looks great, the cinematography and the deep colors.

[Anela]

I’m enjoying it. 

[sjankis630]

I am definitely going to watch the second episode but the narrators voice is grating.

Yes. It’s one of the islands in the Bahamas, I believe it’s the largest one in the country.

I don't know if it's someone we know yet, but I think we were supposed to recognize him as the gunmen. I think they zoomed in so we'll recognize when he's officially introduced?

I haven't been a great fan of Vaughan's schtick, but--maybe just me--I don't feel like he's doing the same old schtick in this one. I liked him very much in this.

Was fun to see some actors we've liked in the past, like the young actress who plays the dead man's wife. We couldn't place her at first, then remembered she was the ditzy aspiring actress friend in Search Party.
