Have it on IPTV so will be ahead of the game as think it is only on episode 4 or so. Do yourself a favour and catch it on the iplayer That the one based on a true story of Charles Sobhraj? Been meaning to have a look at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy that plays Sobhraj, plays it superb, Jenna Coleman as his "wife" is pretty pleasing on the eye. The way they've done the timeline ( jumps every five minutes or so) took a little getting used to but once you do it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madbadteacher Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Discovered all of Still Game was on Netflix, so thought I'd catch up then watch series 7 onwards which I haven't seen. Got 3 episodes into series 7 and gave up, it's truly awful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who'd have thought he'd end up becoming a famous drag queen with a regular slot on daytime TV and married to Mariah Carey. What a great ending. Hope I've not given too much away.

tom_widdows Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 (edited) Bojack Horseman. The animation style put me off (quite similar to the bizarre 'Mr Pickles) but glad I decided to give it a go. Just finished the first season with 5 more to go and according to reviews it gets better from the 2nd series onwards Edited February 10, 2021 by tom_widdows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nellie The Don Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I'm currently 6 episodes into 'Your Honour'. It looked interesting from the trailers, but is in reality a bit of a spoon-fed, poor copy of about 10 other series from the last 10-15 years. I'd recommend 'Tin Star' instead. It's far from perfect, but has at least something a bit more interesting and less predictable in terms of both style and content. The first series of 'Bloodline' is also decent if you like that sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We felt the same about Your Honour too, a bit too much and actually I found the son annoying as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a lot worse, but I wouldn't recommend it. Snowpiercer on Netflix been half decent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not as strong as previous seasons. handmaids tale on the other hand has been excellent and dark as the previous. also started watching mare of easttown, decent so far.

Kowalski Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 For a bit of OTT escapism over 6 great seasons, that final episode of Line of Duty was disappointing dull. Mare of Easttown has been great so far manc. Top work from Kate Winslett! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFuckinPowers Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Inside Number 9, Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton are incredible writers when you think about everything they have done. Inside Number 9 League Of Gentlemen Psychoville ( Their best by some margin, yet not known as much as the other 2 ) Also watching a Documentary about Satanic Cults called Fall River, resulted in at least 3 young women getting murdered, decapitated, raped etc... fucking horrific stuff and abysmal that these creatures are allowed to breathe still. Although, I'd advise you stay clear of stuff like that, I have watched a fair amount of Documentaries about Satanic Cults and for the love of fuck, it absolutely messes you up. Genuinely can't understand why I still watch them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
