Just to echo others on End of the Fucking World. Excellent viewing.

Finished it last night and it's one of the best bits of British TV I’ve seen in a while. Heavily Tarantino influenced but with a dark, British sense of humour. 9/10

Reminded me a lot of Badlands (which would've obviously inspired films like True Romance). Also had more than a hint of Shane Meadows about it, especially his earlier stuff like a Room for Romeo Brass.

Getting there, thanks mate. It’s good to see familiar names like yourself still knocking about.  

last time I was here I think my posts inspired someone that much that she worked to get into parliament....! 

...I’ll stick around though ;)

Christmas Tree

Suits

 

Put off watching this for years but what a cracking show. Really excellent cast and dialogue not a kick in the teeth off West Wing quality.

 

Louis Litt, what an absolute hero.

X Files is back on.  So far it seems better than the short run from last year (apart from the first episode which carried on from that).  The third and forth episodes are really good.

Watched the first episode of The Alienist last night.  Seems to be a bit like a mix of Mindhunters and Ripper Street.  It stars Daniel Bruhl, Luke Evans and Dakota Fanning.  Was a decent first episode and the second was shown in the states last night.

I'm struggling to watch them as the transfer window draws to it's expected climax.  There's only so much bleak I can handle.

Watched the first episode of Altered Carbon last night. High budget Netflix sci fi series, apparently the first series cost more than the first 3 GoT series together. It's very Blade Runneresque. I enjoyed it.

new levels of bleak in the latest season of black mirror, particularly that one where that bird keeps killing everyone. Brooker has one fucked up mind. Good stuff

Aye, that was my favourite. Filmed in Iceland which is cinematically amazing.

The books are fantastic imo - I hope they do them justice.

Yeah I'm gonna give this a go. Added benefit that my lass doesn't want to watch it so I can power through on my own schedule.

The last two episodes of black mirror were superb. For some reason the one with Maxine Peak has the worst rating of any on IMDb. I thought it was excellent. Especially since there was no explanation for what was happening. The last one had obvious similarities to the White Christmas episode in both tone and design and was also brilliant. 

I’d put black mirror up there with inside number 9 as by far the most interesting thing on tv.
