Finally going to start Season 6 of The Americans, some of the earlier seasons are a slot but I need to know how it ends. No spoilers you cunts!

What seasons specifically were a slot?

I'd still love Elizabeth to don a wig, create a chance meeting with me in the street and shag us so she could get information from me. Minx.

No amnesty required, I'd love a rummage in Martha's Vineyard.

I've just watched the 1st episode of Big Sky the latest thing from David E Kelly. I wasn't expecting much as it's on ABC and I did a quick Google before starting it didn't get the best scores from the review sites (which with American TV may have doomed it already). But I really enjoyed it, there's some decent actors in it, it's beautifully shot (and some great scenic views of Montana) and it seems an intriguing story line. I was surprised how the pilot ended. I will certainly be giving it another go and I'm looking forward to episode 2. 7.5/10

Yellowstone (with Kevin Costner). Minus two zillion out of four gazillion and zillionty three. Came highly recommended, so we paid upfront for Series 1 on Prime. A chance for Costner to show us something decent at last. No chance - although scenery aside, the acting was the least of the problems. A script and storyline so ludicrous, so wisible (sic), so utterly preposterous, it made Stallone's lamentable Cliffhanger seem like a work of genius. 

 

Years ago I had a few days alone on the beach in Sitges. Homsville for those that don't know. I was reading a book and seriously laughing out loud. A group of guys nearby eventually asked what I was laughing at. I didn't tell them the title, just read out a few sentences; to much amusement. For good measure, I asked them to name a page and paragraph at random and I'd read it out. The lot of us ended up roaring. It was relentless. Almost any page number they chose, any paragraph, and we'd be howling. It was Donna cunting Tartt's "The Secret History" which had been equally highly recommended. As appalling a book as I've had the misfortune to read. I finished it only through sheer bloodymindedness and in the crazy hope there might be some salvation towards the end. There was none. 

 

And nor would there be had Mr rb14 and I watched anything beyond the first ten minutes into episode three of Yellowstone. "Dire" is too much of a recommendation.

Series 3 is excellent. It's a slow burner for me.

I agree. How they come back after the end of series 3 is going to be interesting though. I hope its not too stupid.

Spot on about “The Secret History”, what a loaf of cack that book is.

Slow fucking burner my arse.

S1E1 this fucking Kayce shoots his wife's brother in the head. OK, Far-fetched, but OK.

 

S1E2, Kayce overturns his tractor, blows up a tree stump and finds a dinosaur. Now that, I accept, is completely normal. But later on, he and his missus are driving along a road when an almighty explosion almost wipes them out. Mortally injured man (missing legs and fried to a crisp) maintains wherewithal and asks Kayce to be put out of his misery. Kayce obliges by shooting him. I have to accept that this is fine because it actually happened to me a couple of times today. Then the rather unlucky Kayce witnesses a wolf get obliterated by a truck. Yup, that happened in our road last week too, so fair enough.

 

S1E3. Our hapless Kayce happens along a van parked in the middle of nowhere. He approaches it to be confronted by a bloke with a gun who starts shooting whilst the van speeds off. Plucky Kayce shoots the gunman then for safe-keeping SAFE-KEEPING! puts his none-year-old child in a drainage pipe (in the middle of a desert, natch) whilst he pursues the van. Stops the van, shoots the driver and rescues the bound, gagged woman. Yayyyyy. Meanwhile boy has been killing rattlesnakes with his bare hands. In the meantime his sister is bathing naked in a cattle-trough.

 

 

Fuck. Off. Slow. Burner. Seriously?

Haunting of Bly Manor - was okay but fell short of the greatness of Hill House. The novella is much shorter and unlike Hill House I don't think the writer managed to effectively add storyline to it. If Netflix allowed a shorter season this could have been much better. Still there are genuinely creepy moments and worth an easy binge 6.75/10

 

Truth Seekers 7.5/10 - I know people here didn't stick with it but I'm not sure why. It's pretty good, and purposely not a laugh a minute. There are again some genuine creepy moments in this too. Hopefully they get another series as I think they could have a solid show here.

The Real Right Stuff....documentary on the Mercury 7.

Loving Warrior on Sky One at the minute, you can definitely tell it's made by the same people who did Banshee right up to the bar even being called by it and the fight scenes and the gratuitous nudity

Also helps that Olivia Cheng who plays the brothel madame (nicely named A Toy) is incredibly hot

 

 

 

[RedKnight]

Warrior's great fun, it being cut down in it's prime is a travesty.

The latest Storyville on iPlayer is very good. 

 

The Hijacker Who Vanished: The Mystery of DB Cooper. 

 

The 1970s. A man hijacks a plane. It lands, the passengers get off and 4 parachutes and $200,000 get on. It takes off again and the hijacker decides to parachute out of the plane at 10,000 feet. He/she (you'll find out why I included both genders) then totally disappears off the face of the earth, with the only physical evidence being $3,000 of the ransom washing up on a river bank months later. 

 

The documentary obviously looks at the incident, but mainly focuses on 5 people who were suspected of being DB Cooper. A very good watch and Marla Cooper is a MILF/GILF.
