I'm midway through the latest season, it's still very good and a joy to watch. It's flawed no doubt. Like Franklin flying planes and shit.

 

I wont give the game away but the ending is a bit disappointing for me as it obviously hints at a certain scenario for the next series. I'm not sure about Franklin flying planes being unrealistic as loads of people have pilot's licences in the USA. The alleged speed at which he's become a proficient solo pilot probably is though.

Seven episodes into Tokyo Vice. I’m not sure how many are left. It’s fucking great. That is all.

Is it set in Japan with Japanese actors? Sounds a stupid question but I'm all for realistic locations and dialogue.

Yep. Real story, I only watched the first one but it’s legit.

Last episode of snowfall almost makes up for a patchy series

Blistering episode 

[cloggypop]

We Own This City looks like it's going to be pretty good from the first one. It's David Simon, it's crime, it's Baltimore. 

[cloggypop]

Also, I'm sure this has been on here before, but Barry seems top quality.

Derry girls 

I really enjoyed it.

Obviously influenced by father Ted the boring uncle is brilliant, and the inbetweeners but still stands on it's own 2 feet

A solid 7/10

Snowfall Season 5 - 8.5/10

 

As good as ever. Jerome is still my favourite character, not much more to add. Next season should be fun.

 

Just started on Tokyo Vice, great opening episode.

[Elite]

I can't recommend Alone enough, it's brilliant. Reality-survival show, it's legit as well. Fascinating seeing how people survive, their ingenuity and how they deal with all the bad conditions, lack of food, bears, etc.

8 seasons of that and I'm now just hearing about it. Thanks for the heads-up. I'll get on it.

Top boy summer house 

Rewatched as the box is on the blink.

Well more than just a gritty drama and explores so many themes..poverty,making a living any way you can,particularly how kids get sucked into that life style and the cycle begins again 

There is a constant fear of dread and I'd genuinely forgotten how great it was.

9/10

Russian Doll S2 - disappointing to say the least. Too clever for its own good and it lost all of the fun of the first season.

I finished that yesterday and I’m already seven episodes into the newer one.

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel - 8.5/10. Just finished season 4. The whole thing is brilliant. 

[YorkshireRed]

Life After Life. Period drama on the BBC, based on the book of the same name by Kate Atkinson.

 

Central character is Ursula who dies many times, but is reborn. Realises she is able to change the course of events as a result. 
 

You know what, I’ve really enjoyed this. I was disappointed to realise there are only four episodes.

 

I was quite taken by Thomasin McKenzie (also in the marvellous JoJo Rabbit) who played Ursula as well.

 

8/10.

I was at a loose end this afternoon, so binge-watched this- so thanks for the recommendation. Very enjoyable and really well acted and shot, but harrowingly grim at times. The ending was a bit disappointing as it didn't really seem to resolve anything, I suppose the point was you just have to accept your fate at times. A solid 7.5/10.

Glad you enjoyed it. Like you, I watched the first one just to kill some time. It’s great when something ends up being a lot better than the expectations you had of it.

Was playing a game with headphones on and looked across at the wife whose mascara was all over her face and was disappearing slowly behind a mound of tissues. I am assuming this is not a comedy ?

It’s definitely not but there are one or two lighter moments. A very well written drama.

Air Crash Investigation. Not sure what series exactly but they called it series 21 but they seem to be a bit mixed up.

Of course it's fascinating and educational but those Canadian reconstructions of the investigators(actors of course) in an office listening to flight recordings and scribbling stuff down is a bit of a farce. There was one of a New Zealand crash and one of the Canadian actors playing an air crash investigator was trying to do a Kiwi accent and it sounded like a South African,it was awful. When they do a BBC one they get proper scientists in to explain all the stuff and use library pictures rather some Canadian field that is supposed to be an Ethiopian desert yet they are all freezing and wearing gloves and scarves. Just give us the technical stuff in simple terms FFS. You've already put 5 million people off flying so do it properly.
