    Thanks, I didn't know that - seems like a "small" house though. Must Google map that house now .....

    Lol - when zooming in on Google Map to that adress you can see some strange people working there (production crew ? :D) and one of them is flipping a double bird at the google camera car :laugh:

    Yeah, I saw the production crew shot on Google maps, very funny. If you search for a satellite image of that address you can see that it is indeed a small house.

    Most shows never explain how ordinary working guys can afford the fancy houses they invariably live in. But Bosch actually works the explanation into the script, which I thought was clever.

    Yes I noticed that explanation too and it made sense. Is that in the books too ?

    Not sure about the books. I enjoyed the show so I plan on trying one of the novels in the near future.

    I just finished it in 4 days and I liked it. I hope they do another series. Does he become a private eye or go back to the force?

    Great show, just finished episode 4.

    For those of you who know a little L.A., was the escape of Raynards Waits filmed more or less on the same location than the shootout of True Detective s02 ???

    Season 2 of Bosch is excellent, they took the promise that season 1 showed and delivered on it.

    Highly recommended!

    Season 2 was no disappointment, but I thought it lost a little steam in the last few episodes. Can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe because this time there was no evil nemesis like in season 1, this time it was more like a patchwork of villains that were all intertwined with their storylines, but somehow lacking coherence.

    And of course the locale in LA is always a treat !
    Damn those ****ing series that shoot in Canada and pretend to be somewhere else ....... greediness don't translate to art and a well done TV series is like art to me.

    Season 2 did have a different feel, but was just as good, one of the best shows out there.

    Season 2 was better than 1. Love it.

    Season one was "oh we know who the bad guy is so its all about how do we catch him and put him away?".

    Season 2 kept throwing in new twists etc. and it was several episodes in before we were sure what exactly was going down.

    I still thought season 1 was damn good, I definitely enjoyed it, but season 2 was closer to an old-school LA-noir and perfectly captured that vibe.

    I'm about a third of the way through, but I agree, this is much better

    I thought Season 2 was really good. The hi-fi system is still there but nothing gets played on it as far as I can remember. Bosch plays jazz CDs (or another digital format) in the car.

    I enjoyed season 1, but season 2 was a step up. I love shows where the setting more or less becomes one of the characters, and that aspect of it worked really clicked.

    Also, I was really happy that Harry and his ex-wife did not have a romantic reconciliation. That would have been a plausible story line, but it would have steered the show in a much less interesting direction.

    Well done show. Well acted, and I did enjoy season two. But I do agree that it lost a bit of steam in the second season. The books are great.

    Kind of interesting but at the very end of the credits there is a painting of a owl with the words hieronymus... If you google hieronymus you'll find that hieronymus bosch was a famous painter from the 15th and 16th century... and if you look at his paintings you'll find the owl from the end credits, (not colored blood red though).

    Harry Bosch's given name is Heironymus Bosch. He is named after the famous painter.

    Amazon has de-coupled their streaming from Prime, so now you can just pay for the streaming service ala Netflix if you don't want the whole thing...though you still get it with Prime if you go that route.

    Interesting, I didn't think it lost any steam at all during season 2. Thought it was crackerjack throughout, can't wait for season 3.
