Finished season 3 of Mad Men. It's a slow burner but I'm really enjoying it now after being a bit underwhelmed after the first season.

Mad men is fantastic, not much high drama, soap like at times but the dialogue is fantastic  series 4 has one of the best TV episodes ever

Have you just got back from Vietnam? Someone should have told you ages ago you could get back.

[Edward.]

Just read The Sorrow of War beautiful book.

[Edward.]

Yeah we got pretty much the last flight out of Vietnam to Cambodia and the last flight from there to Newcastle

I'll add that to my kindle. I think you'll enjoy that documentary, having more than a little bit of background information on it.

Really into Normal People. I can't give you one negative thought about it.

I’ve watched the first couple of episodes of this and i’m really not sure what I think about it.

Season 2 of Dead to Me on Netflix. Light and enjoyable. If you like season 1, you'll like this. 10 episodes of 30 mins each and I've binged it in a couple of days. 7-7.5/10

It is like a high-end soap opera at times but very easy viewing.

All right when I said just, I was due back to work on the 24th March. We actually came back from Vietnam via Cambodia. Left my niece, and step son there. They reckon the flights were around about £12000, so stayed.

None to bring. Vietnam has been one of the best performing countries against CV19. Under 300 cases, zero fatalities. Far safer than Boris' pestilence ridden shithole

Yeah I wasn't being serious. 

 

 

Glad you're back safe Ed

[Edward.]

Yeah I know you were only joking, I've been on here awhile. We decided that we would still go because at the time Vietnam had had only 16 cases and all had been cured according to UK.Gov. We pretty much had every hotel and tourist destination to ourselves same with Cambodia.

Was supposed to be in Hanoi today, on my way to Singapore and then Colombo.

 

Fuck you, covid 19!

 

Instead, I spent last night watching "Waco".

 

An impressive production, over-all. 7 of 10

 

As always, it's hard to tell how accurate it is, but I think I agree with it's take on what happened there at the end.

Five episodes into the first season of Happy! On Netflix. How have I missed out on this until now. Love it.

Just started watching this, 3 episodes of series 1 in and so far so good. Like you say, light and enjoyable and the subtle dark humour is pretty good.

The Last Dance was superb again this week.

Agreed. I read something on Twitter criticising it because Jordan’s own company is secretly one of the producers. The implication being that it’s journalistically compromised. 
 

Firstly, the fact that the locker room footage required his agreement and that of the NBA, seems to have passed them by. Second of all, the idea that it’s some sort of vanity project is ridiculous to anyone who’s watched it. Jordan is very much shown warts and all and it’s a more compelling show for it. 
 

The stuff about his dad, first retirement, engineered slights, baseball and needling of teammates this week was brilliant stuff. And it was all the better for Jordan and virtually every key teammate, opponent, family member and official then commenting on these aspects of his life and character. 
 

In short, this is great fucking telly.

Up to season 3 of call my agent on Netflix, it’s great with some genuinely funny moments. 
 

hicham has a very punchable face.

Yep. It's very balanced and doesn't shy away from any negativity about his character.

 

He'd do your fucking head in though, bet he was a pain in the arse as a team mate but ultimately it worked.
