I have them recorded but haven't started it yet. I had heard this season was the weakest so far. A shame as the first 2 seasons were brilliant and even the last one was good.Nadou said:Is anyone else as massively disappointed with Series 4 of FARGO as I am? It's all style over substance. So dark and moodily shot that it's difficult to work out who's who. It's so in awe of its hip look that it's forgotten about the necessity of interesting characters and a good plot.0 -
Binged it yesterday. Quite enjoyed it. Very easy to watch whilst fiddling on here etc. I know BBC isn't supposed to do advertising or product placement, but was anyone else struck by hoe many times the characters "we'll get an Uber!" Maybe I'm on too much medication.MummysLittleSoldier said:Anyone give 'The Pact' a go last night? Easy watcher, 6 episodes so undoubtedly will get dragged in. Hilariously stupid plot moments - drunk boss at a party, bundle him into the boot of a car and leave him sat in a freezing cold woods for a 'prank'. What could go wrong...entertaining enough though. Thought the acting was half decent in fairness, but woke brigade BBC stampmark all over it. Main characters all females, arsehole male boss displaying every stereotypical negative male trait (sexist, rude, druggy etc) and the chief copper for a show set in Wales...no comment.
What amazed me the most was one of the lead 4 ladies was in Breaking Bad. Didn't place her at all.

Channel 4 have taken the excellent Scandanavian series Before We Die and remade it in English. Be interesting to watch as the story line is excellent.2

I don't know the Scandinavian series but watched episode 1 of Before We Die last night.bolloxbolder said:Channel 4 have taken the excellent Scandanavian series Before We Die and remade it in English. Be interesting to watch as the story line is excellent.
Thought the story was pretty good but some of the acting was terrible, like Hollyoaks level bad. A shame because Channel 4 dramas are usually decent.2 -
Only watched the first three episodes but I'm enjoying it so far even though I agree with you that it is style over substance. I actually think the characters are fun even if they are a bit cliched.Nadou said:Is anyone else as massively disappointed with Series 4 of FARGO as I am? It's all style over substance.

I binned it before the end.Shocking acting........and appeared to be one of those stories that had one too many ridiculous coincidences to keep me interested.Leeds_Addick said:

The Sopranos is also on Sky Boxsets.Fanny Fanackapan said:2 series we have yet to tackle...The Wire and The Sopranos.
Could someone please give me a heads up where we can find the complete series of both. Thanks.
The best TV series ever, hands down!1 -
Agreed. There is no way that a bloke his size would have been able to jump out of the toilet window to escape from that restaurant.Redhenry said:

"Superior soap". Mate, you're watching one of the most highly praised, groundbreaking, iconic TV series of the past 20 years.Lincsaddick said:New for me .. just discovered 'Madmen' on Amazon, missed it first time around .. definitely a superior soap
Enjoy!6 -
I know it was derided on here a while ago, but I subscribed to Britbox a couple of weeks ago. I took the free trial at first and found it had so much more that I was interested in than Netflix, which I can't get rid of as my daughter is glued to it! Admittedly some of the stuff is available on ITV Hub, All 4 or iPlayer but it doesn't seem so difficllt to find a working VPN server and there are no ads. I used it to watch both series on Innocent this week and am catching up with several comedies.Whether it's worth it in the UK I doubt but less than the cost of a couple of beers it's definitely worth it for me, based where I am.2

Breeders on Sky. Watching before my contract expires. First Martin Freeman thing for a while without him doing a cringeworthy American accent. By the writers of Veep. Should be great but it’s leaving me cold. An excuse for the main actors to say “f****g” and “c**t” every other sentence. Doesn’t make it edgy I’m afraid. I’ll give episode 2 a go but I’m not hopeful.0

Assume you’re watching Season 1? Just checking as Season 2 has just started.Sillybilly said:Breeders on Sky. Watching before my contract expires.

I’m watching it but hating it and myself. Just need to watch and get it done but happy for my mate (who made me watch and therefore get sucked into masked singer) to text me who people are to save me the misery. She text me the spoilers tonight which was a right result.SuedeAdidas said:Jesus titty fucking Christ.Am I the only one unlucky enough to be watching the Masked Dancer?1 -
Yup. Hadn’t realised there had been a previous season. D’oh. It may yet grow......SuedeAdidas said:

Speaking of Martin Freeman and awful American accents, I started watching Start Up on Netflix. Hadn’t seen it before, quite intriguing. But not only can he not play a bastard corrupt cop (woefully miscast) but his accent is also terrible. Bit of a double-whammy.1
-
There was a scene where he takes his new female cop partner onto the roof and outlines all the drug wars going on in different communities. He then asked the woman, ‘What does it all mean?’ She says, ‘I don’t know,’ to which Freeman replies, ‘Neither do I.’ Now, if he’d asked me, I would have said, ‘Money. Power.’ Not, ‘I don’t know.’0

What on gods green earth persuades anyone to watch the a show called "The Masked Dancer" in the first place?SuedeAdidas said:Jesus titty fucking Christ.Am I the only one unlucky enough to be watching the Masked Dancer?
Unless you suspected that all they would be wearing was a mask (and the broadcast time/channel was the give away that that wasn't happening).
Every single thing you need to know that it is a pile of shit are in the three word title...4 -
was looking forward to it as a great cast and generally like anything Stephen Graham is in, but couldn't get into itValleyGary said:Time. Strong first episode on BBC1 tonight.0 -
Did anyone make it through The Pact
another poor offering0 -
I'm onto the final episode to watch tonight. Feels incredibly like an ITV drama as opposed to the usual BBC quality. Lots of plot holes and iffy acting and a weak story but I've sat through 5 episodes so may as well see it out.

Started watching Industry on iPlayer last night. It's about a group of graduates trying to get hired by a top London bank.
Only one in but seems promising.
It's a kind of cross between the 80s show capital city and This life.0 -
