Carl Fredrickson Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Wanted a break from my usual crime stuff so watched Schitts Creek and White Gold. SC is a typical US sitcom but it had a few laugh out loud moments. White Gold has a couple of the guys from The Inbetweeners in it and is about double glazing salesmen in the 1980s. Much preferred this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped after the first 2 episodes as it seemed aimed at the low brow teenage market. However I was persuaded to go back to it and it does get a whole lot better mid to end of series one. Havent watched any of season 2 yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billed as a dark comedy about a hitman who gets the acting bug. Watched it over two nights and really enjoyed it. Really enjoyed this one.

Bozi Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Ren watching Blidspot, really good premise and idea but quickly became very formulaic and abandoned what made it interesting in the first place.

JudyJudyJudy Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 " Rillington Place" was very good on Netflix. Its a 3 parter , good cast and based on the horrible true story of serial killer John Reginald Christie and the disgusting framing of Timothy Evans who was hanged for a couple of Chrities murders.

JudyJudyJudy Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Watched the first season of " Money heist" on Netflix.. It started off ok but became more ludicrous after each episode with plot holes galore. and what is with Spanish tv programmes with their booming score !!! nearly knocked me off my sofa. I finished the first season and have no interest in watching the second season unless I am very very bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
