I'm surprised no one has seemed to mention " When they see us" ? It's a 4 parter on Netflix about the infamous case from 1989 when a white female jogger was raped in Central Park and the police stitched up 5 blAck boys , age ranging from 14-16 for it . They got convicted for it and served years in jail . I won't give any more away but it's a brilliant series with outstanding performances from the cast and in particular the young black actors and Felicity HuffmAn who played the main cop who vengefully pursued their wrongfull conviction at all costs ! And in a great bit of forwarning **** face Trump is in discussing his views about it and taking out ads to promote the death penalty for those innocent lads . He's only got worse . 

 

Just finished it.

 

Great wee series but horribly sad.

Agreed. Really enjoyed but horrible what they went through. There's also a one-off programme hosted by Oprah Winfrey where she interviews the cast and the actual exonerated five. Worth watching.

I thought it started slowly but the pace certainly picks up as the season goes on.

Three episodes in myself, and loving it.  I almost didn't watch it, when I saw it had subtitles.

 

An Italian guy at work recommends Suburra. Anyone watched that?

Just finished the mini series Waco , a 6 parter and it was superb. Has quite a few of the Boardwalk Empire cast in it. That David Koresh was some boy. It’s based on one of the survivors account of events and is very different to what was reported. Fascinating stuff but distressing

Just finished season 3 of Stranger Things. Better than the last season which seemed a bit keen on being a horror programme. This is back to what they are good at.

" Dark" is very good. Its on Netflix and its a German sci fi kind of series. Mainly to do with time travellers. Plot is very intricate so you need to keep your eyes on the subtitles :) But its not bad at all. Not outstanding but watchable.

HeartOfWestLothian

Does anyone on here watch Mr Robot? 

 

Probably one of my favourite TV shows ever! It's not too popular as it's pretty niche but watch a few episodes on Amazon prime and see if it's for you. 

 

Can't wait for season 4 to start!

Binge-watching The big bang theory on Netflix... its watchable, a couple of laughs. It satisfies the Nerd in me and Penny is super Fit.... 

 

And the episodes are only 25 minutes long..

Season 2 of Mindhunter is available on Netflix on August 16th, I thought the first season was really good.

Watched the first 2 episodes of The Boys.

Not something I would ever have looked at as I hate super hero nonsense but after seeing the good reviews on here I took a butchers.

 

Can't wait to get in tonight for the next one. Superb.

The third episode has a scene in it that....well I will not spoil it for you. 

 

Like you, not the kind of thing I would think to watch and I loved it.

Just started watching this for the first time a few days ago. Very good watch. Still have dozens of episodes to watch to catch up on. Happy days!

Have you reached the new series, yet. It's absolutely brilliant!
