Borgan is good - but by series three it gets a little bit over complicated. I gave up

Running Man 2025, not great yet 100% better than the original movie and 200% closer to the original Bachmann / King story.

I'm onto series 3 now. At an episode a night it hangs together but not as good as 1 or 2. Not bad for the 3rd year of a series though.

There's a series 4 made 9 years after series 3 in 2022 - in conjunction with Netflix. Just 8 episodes and from a scan of the plot summary probably not a great loss that I'll never get to see it - unless I get a region free DVD player and a US release DVD. :D It would be interesting to see the characters nearly 10 years on though.

Ooh, I hate the original movie but most seem to love it.

The original was a typical cheesy Arnie fest really and bit of t-i-c fun in many ways, but the new one I bailed on.
