Can't remember what it was now but it was funny and involved witches. Not a very helpful recommendation really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA: Good Omens with Pratchett (who I know is one of your favourites ) Actually only read one Pratchett book (and that was when I was a kid) so I probably haven't been totally fair to him. I think it's just the geeky nature of the fandom that gets on my tits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26830 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 7 hours ago, Alex said: Interesting premise as well. I must confess to not having read the book, which is also meant to be good. It isn't. It has its moments and you think it's showing promise which is why I stuck with it to the end but it was a damp squid* ending to be kind to it. If that was the book then the TV series can get fucked. *Nod to CT, there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3978 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Just finished Westworld - not quite the masterpiece it's made out to be but very good. Approaching the end I thought it was another "should be just one season" job but there is scope to continue the philosophical side but they're going to have to have a different format rather than just the looping mechanism of the first one.

Dr Gloom 19824 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 i implore everyone not to bother with friends from college. the first time in a while i've been disappointed with a netflix original. what a truly awful set of humourless characters. The dialogue is terrible and I found it impossible to warm to any of them. I gave up after two episodes, the only thing that could have saved it was if they all had their privileged lives destroyed.
