Finished Reacher on Amazon.
Very enjoyable series, infinitely better than the films.
Much truer to the book too.4 -
Thanks. I 've only watched teh first episode and found myself glancing at the phone frequently. I've enjoyed parts of the previous seasons but never been really convinced despite it being a set up that ticks a lot of my boxes. I don't think I'll bother with the remainder, too many other good things to watch/read/listen to.Croydon said:
Finished the first half of s4, not a fan at all. Completely lost its way imo, totally unbelievable storylines that make no sense.Croydon said:First episode into the new Ozark series and it's not gripping me at all.

Finished watching No Return last night, really enjoyed it. Sheridan Smith plays the mother of a 16 year old boy arrested for sexual assault on a 15 year old boy whilst on a family holiday in Turkey.0

Watched the last episode of Boba Fett with Santa Jr last night. Jr enjoyed it but I thought it was a complete mess, especially compared to the recent standalone Mandolorian episode.2

Yeah I thought it stood out as poor. The Mandalorian is gold standard but I feel they found a character like Boba Fett was there to be used and then they ran out of ideas incredibly quickly about what to do with himSantaClaus said:Watched the last episode of Boba Fett with Santa Jr last night.

I won't be gutted if they drop book of Boba Fett0 -
Hard to explain what was so wrong about this series. Acting, script, story, set pieces were all just really weak. A couple of better episodes that didn't feature the title character. Overall an underwhelming mess.Carter said:

Agreed. I'm all up to speed with it and will finish it as too far in now but it does seem to have gone a bit wonky.Croydon said:

As with all programme's, very few make it past 3 or 4 seasons without going off the boil. But the studios and makers all want the money.hoof_it_up_to_benty said:

Surprised you found Peaky Blinders pretentious - it's pretty dark and grimy in the first few series. It covers an area of the UK that rarely gets featured. I loved the first few series but then for me the plot got ridiculous.Jessie said:I've started watching Succession this week and got totally hooked. Actually I watched the first three episodes back when it was just aired in 2019. I thought the first episode was mind-blowing but somehow didn't continue as every single character in the series was so dislikable. But this time I've realised it really is GREAT. The dialogues are so well-written. Also I'm beginning to like Kendall and Shiv. And the title theme is so good that it has become an earworm for me.
Peaky Blinders... When I finished Boardwalk Empire a couple of years ago I started to watch Peaky Blinders but simply couldn't get into it. It seemed so pretentious... I guess I'm very much in the minority regarding views on this series.0 -
The Wayne Rooney documentary is now available on Prime. A very interesting watch, no punches pulled about the incidents in his personal life.
Apart from the long stud revelation v Chelsea, he admits he wasn't fit for the 2006 World Cup (metatarsal) and even pulled his hamstring on the first day of training and kept it a secret from the management team. Sven looked suitably perplexed. Good insight as usual from Gary Neville.1 -
Been enjoying This is Going to Hurt - I like that it's not the slightly slapstick adaptation of the book it could have been, and has a good realism and dark humour to it.
Sobering to look at how stretched and tired the NHS and it's staff look and then realise it's set a few years before Tory cuts and austerity.3 -

Hadn't read the book but knew a little about it from adverts etc.
Really different to anything we've watched for a long time.1 -
Inventing Anna on Netflix about the fraudster Anna Sorokin is incredibly bad - awful script and acting...0

I'm into series 4 of Yellowstone and up to date with 1883. Yellowstone is marginally my favourite of the two but 1883 is excellent as well.
Kevin Costner acts the shit out of Yellowstone, however like with Sons Of Anarchy bits of ranch and cowboy life and machinations are covered and the rodeo scenes, horse riding in general are magnificent. Clearly a few of the actors have either done a lot of work to be as comfortable on horseback as they are and also like with Sons several of the more background characters are legit cowboys.
Its suitably violent and has a sprinkling of tits and mancandy for the chicks as with a lot of tele series now the real badasses are the girls, Beth Dutton played unbelievably well by the female lead from Eden Lake0 -
Anyone watched the Tinder Swindler? I assumed it would be a load of crap given my girlfriend picked it, but the first 45 minutes has kept my interest (then fell asleep).

Enjoying this series of Ozark. John-Boy Walton is all grown up now!1

Thought Chloe was very good.1

Pam & Tommy on Disney+ of all places. 3 episodes in and an enjoyable watch so far. Lily James is completely unrecognisable but very good as Pamela Anderson0

Watched first episode of “No Return”……the new ‘drama’ with Sheridan Smith on ITV. It is laughably bad.The local Turkish lawyer character is soooooo bad he almost saves it.0

"Spunk"
"yes, that is it"
We still enjoyed it though however Smith does grate on me.2 -
This new Louis Theroux is already mental.The internet as a tool to giving these people a platform is scary.Can’t say I’m surprised but it’s still shocking seeing it happen.1

Love Succession, love the shitty characters, love the theme. It's also written in South London, just down the road from us in Brixton.Jessie said:I've started watching Succession this week and got totally hooked.

Book of Bobba Fett was a bit of a disjointed effort. Good in places but overall I was disappointed.
Called it from the start that the lead actor was a shocking choice,and so it proved as Disney pretty much pulled Fett from most of the last 3 episodes and hoiked the Mandalorian in to try and save the show.4 -
Yeah, there was a good interview in the New Statesman with Jesse Armstrong with a picture of him in the Regent.Addickhead86 said:
