Disser Pointon Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Also has anyone tried Orphan Black, I'd never heard of it but one of the actresses picked up an Emmy last night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid Snake Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Mr Robot. Really not sure what to make of this. A seriously weird programme. It started off really well and I was hooked. However I'm now halfway through season 2 and I think it's gotten quite boring / repetitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Fredrickson Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 The wife enjoyed the first series of Outlander but it wasnt to my tastes. We have just watched the 6 series of Still Game and even though we have seen them many times, we still had a good laugh. Thinking of starting Narcos series 2 next.

Watched The Jinx: Life and Deaths of Robert Durst last week, anyone else watched it? It's an excellent 6 part documentary on a guy from a super-rich New York family and some murders he is accused of.

Rudolf's Mate Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 A couple of shows that have been recommended on here that I've finally got round to starting. The Night Manager. Paid little attention to what was being said about this simply because I thought it was about a hotel manager that dealt with shit going on in his hotel It's been outstanding! Ballers. It's got a Californication feel about it and I wasn't sure at first however if you want some easy viewing it's definitely worth watching.

Getintaethem Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Another shout for The night of, cracking series with tremendous acting. I've stuck with fear the walking dead, although it's a pale imitation of its sister show it's improved this season. Also have become strangely addicted to Z nation, cheesy acting with ridiculous storylines that doesn't try to pretend to be taken seriously. Three zombie wise men turning up to the stable with a zombie camel when Murphy's baby is born was a particular highlight, along with the Butch and Sundance tribute. Terrible show with loveable characters, can't wait for the next cheese laden episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf's Mate Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Just finished watching that box set. Best thing on TV for years IMO. Fantastic. Totally agree. Compelling viewing! A few had mentioned Into the Badlands so I've made a start on that. About 4 episodes in and it seems pretty decent but I wouldn't say its totally gripped me. I get the sense it's tried to loosely follow Hunger Games and a few other films. I say loosely however there's a lot of stuff familiar.

Getintaethem Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Without "spoilers" can you give me a rough outline of it, quite fancy it. Set in New York, the story of a young man who goes on a night out and gets embroiled in a murder investigation and subsequent trial. Cleverly written and superbly acted, the tale evolves as the implications of one night turns a family's world upside down and change the young man forever. It's takes you through the whole process, from the crime scene, to the precinct and from Ryker Island penitentiary to the courtroom. I thought the performances of the investigating detective and a rather unorthodox lawyer were brilliant. Watch it, you won't regret it.

I telt them to GTF with the sports & movies packages and saved a bit of cash but Mrs PJ likes to record and watch The Kardashians and The Housewives of... series when I'm being a skitehound in the pub (suits me) so I had to keep the family package otherwise they (Sky) would get jettisoned.

jambo1975 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Just watched 11 episodes of luke cage in a row. Outstanding. Anyone that hasn't watched the marvel stuff in netflix would recommend it all. Jessica Jones probably the weakest but still worth a watch.
