Christmas Tree 6705 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 The walking dead. Have avoided it like the plague because Zombies have been done to death, but this is more about survival. One of those programmes where the ending of each episode leaves you desperate to watch the next. Very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 18050 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Zombies have been done to death I'd if I thought you were clever enough to make a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the way in which this has been made has brought the genre back to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 39291 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 It's shite. Too slow. Gave up after the first series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1839 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I went off the Walking Dead towards the end of the second season and the begining of the third. But once the third season got going with David Morrisey's character I really got into it and watched the rest of it in about 3 weeks. Don't think there's anything in it that hasn't been done before but there are some good characters (love the bird with the sword) that kept me watching.

Howay 12496 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I've seen all of the Walking Dead (including the spin off Fear the walking dead... don't bother) so far and tbh it's painfully slow and it's clear they're dragging it out like fuck. In the recent season they spent multiple episodes simply going over what each of the characters were doing at the same time, some of them were absolutely pointless and the others could have definitely been shortened and put together into 1 or 2 episodes max. There's a good show in there but it's so strung out between long periods where nothing happens that it's frustrating to watch, I'm at the point where I feel like I've invested so much time into the show I want to watch it through to the end but I must admit I'm getting close to just not bothering.

strawb 5433 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I've read most of the graphic novels (comics if you prefer) and I could never get away with the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I binged watched most of it so probably didn't notice how slow it is. Now that I'm up to date it might hit home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Just finished watching the last episode of Simon Sebag Montefiore's recent series on the history of Spain. I remember watching his series on the history of Istanbul last year which was brilliant and this is exactly the same. If you're in any way interested in European history then I'd recommend it.

Howmanheyman 43974 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'm watching the news. Why do the BBC news keep saying 'so-called' before the name Islamic state? Just call them it or call them something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Just watched the first episode of Making a Murderer. It already seems like a must watch, I was totally gripped by the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 63312 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Just watched the first episode of Making a Murderer. It already seems like a must watch, I was totally gripped by the end of it. Aye I'm six episodes in and it keeps getting better. I was gonna wait til I'd finished it to mention it cos we've got some spoiler spackers on here. Hopefully we can all keep our gobs shut, you know who you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 5305 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I've watched a few Eps of Game of Thrones over the past couple of weeks. I originally watched the first ep when it started and markedly it down as worth watching but probably on a retrospective basis. Anyway as I said I've seen bits of the third and fourth season lately and think it's okay but not life changing. I've been happy to read the imdb ep descriptions to fill in the gaps in my knowledge and though I would be happy to see the stuff I've missed I'm not going to obsess over it. What I would say is that I suppose it's brave to focus on main characters who are such unlikeable, irredeemable cunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 63312 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Finished it last night. I'll say nowt until people are through it. Everybody should watch it though: Making a Murderer. It's on Netflix but is available to download and on kodi too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
