New/Old TV Series

Post by DarcShadow » Mon Jan 13, 2020 11:19 am

I found a new TV series (came out in 2017) that I thought worth sharing, called Jean Claude Van-Johnson. It's six, 30-min episodes and well worth the watch for the laugh. The idea behind the show, is Jean Claude Van Damme's movie carrier was just a cover for him being a spy. Jean Claude is basically parading himself and they make use of virtually every 90's era movie trope you can think of. I enjoyed it, though some of you might as well. I found it on Amazon Video.

I watched the first episode. It started out decent then kind of went down hill. I'll watch a couple more and see how it goes. I also checked Netflix, but they don't have it.

It's only 6 episodes. If you watch a couple more you'll be half way through the series. ha

3 may be all I can handle. Watched the second one and wasn't impressed. Watching the third one now.

I watched the whole thing. If you are a Van Damme fan it might be worth watching, but I can see why it was cancelled after 1 season.

I didn't get the feeling that it was intended to be anything more than a 1 season show. To me, it felt more like a movie that was just broken into 30min sections.

According to Wikipedia it was cancelled, but based on the ending I don't know what they would have done in season 2. I'm guessing they knew there wasn't going to be a season 2, hence the goofy ending.
