GinRummy Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) Industry. A character led drama about a group of trainees first year at an investment bank. 8 episodes, all available on iPlayer. Very believable stories showing the cut throat side of the financial industry and how. If you liked stuff like This Life or Mad Men you’ll love this. 9/10 Edited November 29, 2020 by GinRummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually jealous that you still have 2 seasons of Gomorrah to watch. I was gutted when I finished it. Mind there's also the feature length film following Ciro to watch after that, The immortal. Anything else along these lines that you'd recommend? Suburra: blood on Rome or something keeps popping up in my feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I’ve said before “ Fargo “ is brilliant . It’s different characters stories each season . Brilliant casts , Billy Bob Thornton , Ewan McGregor , Kirsten Dunst et al . Season 4 is about turf wars between rival street gangs . Black gang against Italians . It’s utterly compelling , episode 8 pays a fine homage to “ the untouchables “ and episode 9 is utterly brilliant whacky and way out there ! Added bonus of having Gennero from “ Gomorrah “ in the cast !! Salvatore Esposito ! Have u seen. “ The Americans “? That’s brilliant too . About two Russian sleeper spies in the USA in the 1980s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gards Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Not a tv series but a Netflix film. "Trial of the Chicago 7". Written and Directed by Aaron Sorkin (West Wing & Newsroom). Good film based on real events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMFC01 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Was going to recommend project blue book. Until I learned just now they cancelled series three 😬 Great two series if you like aliens/ufo stories. Last, second series was left on a cliff hanger. I was looking forward to seeing the continuation. Severely disappointing. I think it's History channels series. They decided to stop it. The third series is supposedly finished, they just need a channel to host it. I had been watching it off scifi channel so I would hope they might do something.

Thought the ending was a bit anti climactic but enjoyed it overall and will watch season two. 7/10. Watching The Fall on Netflix now. Got 3 or 4 episodes left in the last series and it's brilliant.

Carl Fredrickson Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I am not a huge Star Wars fan. I enjoyed the original three films but the prequals, recent films, stand-alones, Rebels, Clone Wars etc havent really appealed. My son loves all of them so I spend time watching them with him. However, the Mandalorian is fantastic TV and I look forward to each new episode as much as my son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those final scenes were shocking but to be expected. The actor who plays Gennaro is also in season 4 of " Fargo" playing surprise surprise an Italian gangster. He is superb in it and finally speaks English dialogue. He may get more English speaking parts. He often reminds me of a young James Gandolfini.
