Best thing I’ve seen on nfx I think (maybe narcos comes close). It's very, very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17767 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I think Ozarks only okay personally. I had a sudden urge to rewatch breaking bad last night, now better call saul is catching up with the timeline. Its fucking superb watching it again 5 years later. Second time round you pick up more subtleties and the acting is so good. Probably the best story arc too (although from memory S1 and S5 were better than the middle). So aye, ozarks not a patch on BB imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Breaking Bad was decent but was a victim of its own hype at the time. That finale is of variable quality, to say the least 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34451 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Finally caught up with the second season of The Handmaid's Tale. Best thing on telly by a mile. I'm on Patriot at the minute on Amazon. It's quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19824 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 the casting was also annoyingly right-on, even by the bbc's standards. every major character was a woman or an ethnic minority. even the jihadi mastermind was a woman ffs.

Seems a bit of a tenuous link. Not that I tried to pull the show apart because you could have a field day if you did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that was all part of the twist. I can't say that the casting affected my enjoyment of the show but then again I'm not a racist sexist so I'll defer to you on that one. Also, the lead character was a white male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My lass and I were pissing ourselves laughing in the first episode after about the 4th or 5th female boss. Still didn't stop the Guardian from having a pop about the portrayal of of Muslim women though Thought it was entertaining stuff but the ending did spoil it a tad.

Howmanheyman 26824 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 BBC iPlayer is showing the two episodes of the silent war about the US, UK and Soviet nuclear sub's and their cat and mouse, cold war tracking of each other again. It's a good show. Also watched a programme on there of the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918-19 which, considering the numbers of deaths involved, (50m plus), it always amazes me how little of the subject has been mentioned, taught, discussed etc. The numbers involved were staggering. (Maybe Farage could've stood in front of a memorial or something with a sad face about it if only it was just confined to Britain rather than a global outbreak?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19824 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 just started vinyl. scorsese is an exec producer and you can see his influence all over it - drugs, brutal violence, stylish 70s backdrop - but set in a record label. 3 episodes in and so far it's very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19824 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 shame, been enjoying it. i remember the same happening to huff - that was well worth watching but was canned after 2 or 3 seasons just as it was coming to the boil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 HBO has a history of cancelling shows, the show didn't get that many viewers in the US and it was expensive. Terrence Winter left aswell so they probably just cut their losses. Mind I enjoyed it, The Deuce season 2 has started and that is based around the same time in NYC. Worth a watch.

David Kelly 1117 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I couldn't get past the first episode of Vinyl and as no one else said anything particularly positive about it, I never tried. I watched Final Space over the weekend. A bit like Rick and Morty but not quite so mental and with an ongoing story. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
