Transporter: The Series Season 1-2 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Transporter: The Series Premieres on HBO Canada on January 4, 2013



Transporter: The Series is an English-language Franco-Canadian action-adventure television series, based on the Transporter film series created by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen. It is co-produced by the French Atlantique Productions and the Canadian boutique entertainment company QVF Inc. in association with broadcast partners M6 (France), RTL (Germany), The Movie Network, Movie Central (Canada) and HBO/Cinemax (USA).
The series follows the events and concept of the film trilogy, in other words the continuing adventures of Frank Martin, a professional freelance courier driver for hire who will deliver anything, anywhere – no questions asked – for the right price, and lives by three, unbreakable rules...which he constantly breaks. Chris Vance takes over the role of Frank from Jason Statham and is joined by Hungarian actress Andrea Osvárt, who plays the leading female role in the series, starring as a former CIA agent and love interest for Frank, who organizes his missions, and French actor François Berléand, the only returning actor from the film series, who reprises his role as Inspector Tarconi.
12 episodes were ordered for 2012 with an overall budget of $43 million, or €30 million. The show premiered that year on October 11 in Germany on RTL on December 6 in France on M6. The Canadian premiere is set for January 4, 2013 on HBO Canada (with the first episode available online from December 18, 2012).

1x01 The General's Daughter

Saving the girl in the car park was nice but having her ass in his face was amusing and what a gentleman covering her modesty while driving from the gunmen but at leased he paid her when he wrecked her gas car, the fight scenes saving Delia was also impressive

Not all those clips were from the first episode

Action packed first episode and with Cinemax a little nudity

TOP

1x02 Trojan Horsepower

Being in French was disappointing and also using what looked like some of the same chase scene's from the first episode was crazy, Dieter wanting to give Frank a huge after Trina hires him to deliver a new engine prototype invented by her father to the Paris Motor Show was amusing but the close call on the bridge was brilliant

TOP

1x03 Harvest

English with French subtitles is better, Frank ignoring his own rules by opening the package was crazy but finding a stolen heart in the cooler created another dilemma when he figures out that his client was a powerful crime lord and what morons using machine guns when there was a heart in the boot, stealing the heart back a second time was amusing and who would of thought both patients wanting hearts would get them

TOP

1x04 Dead Drop

Her saying the dude can drive was amusing as she was also impressive and the package being blind did make things interesting, the guys shooting into the shower when they were told he was wanted alive was bizarre but made sense later when we found out who the mole was and the fight in the kitchen was great

TOP

1x05 Sharks

Frank helping the lady who was about to be mugged was amusing as she drove off without a word and out of the three drivers who would of thought the old Volvo would be rescuing Frank but tragic he died trying to deliver his package

TOP

1x06 - 12 Hours

Information withheld was amusing as it works both ways but Carla should vet their client more as being injected could of been fatal and Dieter getting himself into hot water was priceless

TOP

1x07 City of Love

Another dodgy client is getting repetitive with this time delivering a bomb and the police having a shoot to kill order on him but what a way to treat a Smart car

TOP

1x08 Switch

It being a girl on the motorcycle was a surprise and Frank being suspected of swapping the painting was predictable but unrealistic as replacing a painting with a fake would take time an as he is only the transporter

I have watches the so called episode 2 and they are all wrong according to Wikipedia description except for the French one

TOP

1x11 Cherchez La Femme

These episodes are all mark wrong so I am having to watch and compare to Wikipedia's description, the hacker being the target was a surprise but holding Carla as leverage did make things interesting and Juliette leading them to his home was diabolical but at leased she help him kill the one responsible

It gets frustrating when you think you are about to watch episodes 9 & 10 not 7 & 11

Reply 26#26 bala's post

So you don't mind watching the same episode twice or even worse three episodes repeated

Reply 28#28 bala's post

Episode 2 the French one has been duplicated from a different episode along with 9 being 7 so God knows what 7 is

Looks like I will have the check all ten new links to find the English 2 and the right 9 &10
