Finishes Bodyguard yesterday,  final episode was shite, ruined the entire thing for me. 

 

Also finished Ozark season 2, its watchable, no more than that. Season 3 will be way down the list when the time comes.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Ozark was ok. Agree on Bodyguard.

 

I enjoyed Lodge 42.

[Stickman]

Started  watching The Pacific again on Atlantic I remember the first time it came out not loving it as obviously you compare it the Band of Brothers but I'm enjoying it a lot more now if enjoy is a word you can use, what a fucking horrific war to have been involved in. If the Japanese didn't get you then the jungle and the elements would.

I know there's an argument for and against the use of the Atomic Bomb but if you or your family had been involved in that war you probably would have dropped the thing yourself.

Coming so soon after WW1 didn't help either. Must have felt like the end of days.

It was heartbreaking.  On Armistice Day, when all the crowds flocked to the streets, dancing with strangers, hugging their loved ones, they were oblivious that they were spreading the virus and condemning each other to painful, pitiful deaths.

I've just watched a documentary I recorded a while back about the 1918/19 flu pandemic. ("The Flu That Killed 50 Million")

 

Fuck me it's hard going. 

 

It's a part of world history that barely gets mentioned, probably because it's so hard to even think about. 

 

Good documentary, but... fuck me.

I meant to watch that but forgot. I do remember watching another documentary on the same subject a few years ago called The Forgotten Flu. The numbers it wiped out are staggering.

 

Anyway, last night I got round to watching the first episode of Killing Eve. 9/10

 

Absolutely loved it. How fucking sexy is Jodie Comer talking in that French accent. Ooh, la la.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Her mum works in our place, but I don't really know her.

 

That's my best claim to fame.

Watching the second series of El Marginal,an Argentine prison drama,on Netflix and I think it's pretty good.

[Barrington Womble]

I watched the pilot of Manifest, some nbc show which is based around a plane flying from montego Bay to New York, going through turbulence and landing over 5 years after take off, but to everyone on board, no time has passed except for the 3 hour flight. There's lots of potential there for a good show, but can't help think it'll just turn into another generic cop show (lead woman is nypd copper) as nbc are running with it. 6/10 for the pilot. 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

A pilot who takes 5 years to get from Montego Bay to New York would get less than 6/10 from me!

It's actually a show about the privatisation of that particular airline. They got there quicker than Virgin Trains ever could.

[Sugar Ape]

Been watching a few CIA type thriller shows lately. 

 

Jack Ryan. Fast paced, looks great visually, really enjoyed this. 7.5/10. 

 

Shooter. Not bad but kind of instantly forgettable. Gets a lot better in season 3 which is, of course, when they decided to cancel it. 6/10. 

 

Condor. From Audience network which did Kingdom and Mr Mercedes. Only a couple of episodes in but enjoying it so far. Decent cast with William Hurt and Brendan Fraser amongst others. 7.5/10. 

 

Also halfway through The good cop on Netflix and it’s something of a disappointment so far. Not funny enough to work as a comedy like, say, Brooklyn nine nine and not good enough to work as a cop show with lazy plots and the identity of the murderer is spelled out within minutes of each episode. Shame because I like Tony Danza. 5/10. 

[Numero Veinticinco]

Agree with everything bar Shooter. I thought it dropped off. I enjoyed Condor though. 

[rubble-rouser]

5 episodes into Manhunt: Unabomber. Solid, some very good aspects. The bomber looks like Dr Nowt and is eerily portrayed but the actor playing the lead FBI character is hammy as fuck and the way it's dramatised is cheesy.

 

7/10

[Mook]

Currently watching Queen of the South on Netflix, it's not about a F**tball team in Dumfries but the rise of a female drug kingpin from Mexico.

 

It's ok actually, think a lesser Narcos with a bird in the lead role & a really shit soundtrack.

Haha. Sounds like.

 

I watched episode 2 last hight and it wasn't too bad. Better than the pilot. 6.5, maybe a 7 up to now. 

[skend04]

Killing Eve - just don't get the love for it. It started off well enough but then it just drifted into averageness. 4/10 and most those 4 are for Jodie and her magnificent chesticles.

[Rico1304]

Went to see the stage version of Early Doors last night. It was brilliant. The audience had real warmth for the characters, it was very, very funny and the finale was superb.

Got bored quickly and stopped watching after about 4 episodes so I'd agree with your assessment.

[littletedwest]
