Ron Burgundy Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 12 minutes ago, Bozi said: Brilliant series, funny,touching, violent and brilliantly acted. The brother with the unicorn was a particular highlight I spent a bit of time this morning googling the brother who had MND in the series to see if he really had it in real life cos if not that was incredible acting. Still don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adambraejambo Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Know it came out a few years ago but Mr Mercedes I thought was excellent. Not read the books by Stephen King but liked the slow pacing of the show and had plenty of violence. Season one 9/10 Season two 7/10 Season three 8/10. It is on Disney.

GinRummy Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 To Catch a Copper. Channel 4 player. 3 part mini series. Fascinating documentary showing the work of Avon & Somersets Police anti corruption unit. Won’t give too much away but if your hoping to be reassured that the police do a good job of bringing racist and sexual predator cops to task then you’re likely to be disappointed. Some absolutely shocking and upsetting (police body cam recorded) scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one of them seemingly unable to see exactly what was in front of them. Yep, at first I thought the clips the community folk had seen were misleading, which you could kind of understand. I fully expected them to change their mind when they saw the full bodycam footage. I was amazed they stuck to their guns. The woman herself behaved like a total piece of shit.

Muppetboy Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 The walking dead, the ones who live. Another spin off focusing on Rick and michionne after the bridge incident and the subsequent years after.

Bozi Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 After the Fall of the House of Usher I was intrigued to see the rest of Mike Flanagan's stuff, though the wife thinks she will be terrified with the "haunting" ones so watching Midnight Mass Two to go and still not sure about it, I like the small changes that wee happening before you really realised what was happening but fear it's gonna fall flat at the end Also watching Mr and Mrs Smith which is very good, funny and choc full of cameos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sex Panther Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 33 minutes ago, Americana said: I have not, is it new? +1 for The Expanse. Really finds it feet after the first series and although the last series is one too many, everything in between (particularly S3 & S4 IIRC) is excellent. Takes a wee while at the start to get used to who is who but it's worth the wait. It's all done now, S1 of the 6 came out in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 34 minutes ago, Americana said: I have not, is it new? It's not, finished with its 6th season a year or two back. It's one of the best sci-fi shows of recent times though IMO. It started out on the SyFy channel, but they dropped it after 3 seasons (too expensive for them to make) and then Amazon picked it up to finish the story. It might take a few episodes to get into, but it's well worth sticking with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

periodictabledancer Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Drought on More 4. Spanish / Portuguese production so you'll have to put up with subtitles. Two bodies appear following a drought in a reservoir and a police officer tries to discover the truth behind it. Power, corruption, drugs, family intrigue , rogue cop. A good story, good acting which does lose something due to having subititles IMO but a solid 8/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I’ve just started on Shogun on Disney+. Looking very good so far and has been praised by historians on social media as being historically accurate in its depiction of the era. Certainly more gritty than the TV adaptation with Richard Chamberlain a number of years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
