    Last two days caught the last couple of episodes of race against the world on BBC

    Wish I had seen the whole series when originally aired
    Have really enjoyed both series, not sure if there will be one next year.
    I have heard Season 3 has been filmed entirely in Terminal 3 at Heathrow.  :)

    Just binged the whole of Cobra Kai Season Three

    First seven episodes are brilliant, tails off a bit towards the end, the ending itself though!!... BRING ON SEASON FOUR!!!!!!!

    Not new of course but watched again the Curb episode with the chef with Tourette’s. I had almost forgotten how good the ending is topped off by Susie’s “ car wash ****! “. Wonderful!
    CUNNILINGUS! 

    JISM!

    If anyone still hasn't seen it 

    Man like mobeen. Very, very funny 

    It really is.
    It's bitty, for me. In places it falls pretty flat - but when it's funny, it's REALLY funny.

    VPN just about held up. Usual Spiral thing, slowish start, the new viewer might  wonder what all the fuss is about. They’ve introduced another femme fatale too, as if Audrey Fleurot wasn’t enough to cope with ! 

    I see that it repeats Wednesday midnight, if anyone needs to re-set their recorders.

    I'll wait for a few episodes then binge on catch up .. have a terrific 2021

    Watched 4 episodes of The Serpent. Best BBC drama since the Bodyguard imo. Plus Jenna Coleman is delicious in it.

    Only watched the first, but looks very promising.

    Travelling in the 70s looked incredible, either the hippy trail or air travel. Makes travel today look so sterile.

    Yep, agree with all that, having just watched the first on iPlayer. Beautifully re-created 70s scenes.

    Been watching The Serpent also, thought it may be a bit style over substance but it’s been gripping at points also. Very good TV.

    As for Jenna, beautiful.

    Finally finished Schitt's Creek. That has to be as good as a 6 season sitcom gets, it started off great, got better and ended perfectly. So many characters all of which you actually care about and genuinely funny

    I was so sad when it was over. I’m watching again from the start next week when I’m off work.

    Just restarted it for the 3rd time. It's brilliant!
    You guys need to help me out here. I watched the first episode yesterday, is that an indication of the rest of it? As I was severe scratching my head at the end in thinking how can anyone have found anything to rave about with this pile of poop!

    I with you on that Barts. So many people had recommended it to me knowing my liking for character based stuff like Seinfeld, Frasier, Curb even more recent stuff like The Big Bang Theory, etc. We gave it 5, maybe 6, episodes to try and get into the characters and just couldn't. Wasn't doing it for us at all.

    I've recommended it before but if you're a grumpy old misanthrope like me I'd suggest trying Loudermilk (but not one to watch with any kids about). Again needs a couple of episodes to get into but the characters and "non-PC 'ness" in his therapy group cracked me up.

    Community is silly but quite good fun, but clearly jumps the shark to the extent they even start referencing the dip in quality within their own show.

    The Serpent. 
    Me & Mrs Charlton Road finished it last night after a 3 night binge. Really excellent TV, if you’ve only seen one episode & aren’t sure all I can say is stick with it but obviously if it’s not your thing then fair enough. It’s the first series we’ve seen for a while that when you finish an episode you can’t wait to watch the next. Really nicely shot & some excellent actors.

    TV shows are like Marmite, some you love and some you hate. I have started watching plenty of shows based on tips from this thread only to get 1 or 2 episodes in and think "what a load of shit"

    Each to their own but buyer beware when following a tip.

    I've watched it all the way through and didn't like it as much as others (I wouldn't watch it a second time). Like you, I really hated it at first and only continued because it had had so many positive reviews and awards. It definately improves from about mid way through the first series as the awful charaters become more well-rounded and start to learn from their experience. It ends up being genunely heart warming with some really good moments. For me, it's a solid 8/10

    I'm on  series 4 and have enjoyed it to date. I have to say though that now David is in a serious relationship, it's lost some edge. I liked his angst ridden sarcasm and now he's gone soft and I feel its a bit heavy on the box ticking gay relationship angle. Will stick with it though, as it's a light relief from most of the murder driven dramas. 

    Just finished S2 of Succession which really grew on me and looking forward to S3. Just started Tin Star now - good so far after 3 episodes.

    The Jeff and Susie marriage in 'Curb' is very well observed. I think we've all known guys with wives like Susie and thanked out lucky stars it wasn't us who drew that particularly short straw.

    I loved Tin Star. I agree that we all have different taste and it might not be everyone's cup of tea but I thought the new Tin Star was the best of the series.

    Just had the exact same comment from a lad at work. The first episode isn't great, but I don't think pilots ever are as good as the rest of a series.

    Give it til ep3, then see if your opinion changes.

    I first watched part of an episode halfway through season 1 and didn't like it. Then wifey persuaded me to watch from the start and even then I wasn't too sure at first but once you get to know the characters you really warm to them all and the whole thing just gels really well.

    So much of it depends on knowing the characters that I don't think anyone could really judge it from a single episode
