Undercover on Netflix.

Dutch/ Belgium combo series based on semi true events about 2 undercover cops trying to infiltrate a close nit gang of ecstasy dealers based on a trailer park. Really good and looking forward to second series

Black Monday was back this weekend after the mid-season covid break. I really enjoyed it and some much needed lighter TV for me. 8/10 for this week's episode. 

 

Not sure if this should be here or the film thread. I also watch the Irishman over the weekend. I honestly don't know what I thought of it. I thought the story was ok, but I felt there was a lot of story just not there h it was tough to understand why de niro was so close to Pacino or pesci, they just didn't tell that story. And all that titting around making them look different ages, I found it distracting and took away from what was happening. All in all I think it would have been better had they made a 10 episode series out of it as I'm the material must have been there. And I also think it would have worked better using actors roughly the right age for their roles instead of using some fella in his 70s cracking on in a role of someone 40 years younger or whatever. 6/10 for me.

This is going on my watch list. Could do with something decent to watch in Dutch.

On a related note , I read yesterday that Robbie Williams was offered the Daniel Craig role in Layer Cake first. The mind boggles.

They would have titled it Angel Cake instead.

I’ve been watching the new Twilight Zone. Only five or six episodes in. It’s okay, nothing earth shattering. Enough to keep me watching.

Or I think talentless knobhead cake has a better ring to it.

I think it was on SyFy in the UK. I enjoyed it. As you would expect, some episodes were better than others. They've assembled a lot of good actors for season 2 which is released in the US shortly.

New Amsterdam - 7/10

 

Medical show. Sentimental, overly sweet, but at least had a bit of heart and a really nice looking chick. 

She’s just started watching this, she’s watched far fucking worse. It’s cheesy as hell but quite enjoyable in a have on in the background, easy distraction way. 
 

Freema Agyeman is fucking lovely. 

[Paul]

Started watching Dave last night and then rattled through the first five. It’s brilliant; funny as fuck. 

[YorkshireRed]

Marvellous.

 

Watched it again last night. I’m sure many will have seen it before but it’s still....marvellous.

 

9/10 (loses a mark for featuring someone who once played the unmentionable but chose a certain unmentionable club over another unmentionable club and because the chippy named after him was shit and probably served chicken, fried rice, kebabs, burgers and cod).

Dark - Series 3

 

The ending made more sense than I was expecting, although I feel like it was a bit of a cop out. It’s quality but also a total mind fuck of a show.

Finding it a bit meh after 4 or 5 episodes. The episodes are way too long. Rod Serling's 25 to 30 minute episodes were spot on.

I might be not remembering correctly, but aren't the lengths of episodes quite different, they're not all a standard 45mins or whatever? I don't recall the length of the shows being an issue for me though.

You are correct. They are different lengths of episodes. They have just seemed quite long to me. 

I will give a full review at the end of the whole series.

The ending of series 3 fucking infuriated me tbh, really enjoyed the whole thing but I thought nah, they're taking the fucking piss now.

 

I'm boycotting season 4 in protest.

[Numero Veinticinco]

So I’ve been watching more Twilight Zone. Most of it is shit, but I’ve just watched the episode called ‘Among the Untrodden’, which I thought was really excellent. 

[John102]

Might have a watch. I've watched 3 or 4 episodes of it and they have all been dreadful.
