Be prepared, the humour is darker and more 'wrong' than Modern Family, but it's the funniest sitcom out there by a distance for me. It's the anti-Friends. No super-nicey cringey stuff. Everyone in it is a ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd forgotten how good this was before they brought out that crap follow up season several years later. We actually enjoyed the last series this time round, it was quite a surprise after our initial reaction. And if we're doing bluth gifs...

Unknown user Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 We started watching HBO's Oz again recently, not seriously, just to see how it had aged really. Brilliant, really brilliant. Yes it's 90s as hell, and incredibly violent, but it's so well made with great acting, powerful storylines and quality production values. We got dragged right in again, I'll be gutted when it's done.

Of the other ones people recommended go for Parks And Recreation. It’s one of those American sit cons that beautifully crafted, and also very funny.

JudyJudyJudy Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 “ The Handmaids Tale” Just started to watch this , will watch more tonight . Initially I thought this couldn’t happen but it’s scarily accurate . It Begins with women being subjugated , not allowed to work , then not allowed to have money , then viewed as “ sluts” , martial law then a Civil war due to a “ threat “ ( Terrorism ) finally all rights taken away from them , and a new world order established with religion underpinning its laws . Gays / lesbians / political dissenters strung up . It so relevant to , in relation to America , Actually am alarmed at what Matt Hancock said yesterday when asked about the “ test and trace App “ saying currently it’s voluntary but “ may “ become mandatory . Worrying times , just replace the threat of “ Terrorism “ with corona virus 🦠and you get my point . As the main character says the change didn’t happen overnight , it’s gradual . As an aside Elisabeth Moss is an outstanding actress . Best actress around today . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
