The Reindeer Mafia.

 

A Finnish series as part of those 'Walter Present' foreign dramas from Channel 4. Looks ok after a couple of episodes. Rudolph,Donner and Blitzen are not the good guys here.

As an aside the actor who plays his mum is a bit of a sort when out of character...

Anyway, I'm watching boy swallows universe after seeing it mentioned here, I can't understand how Robert can be The Mentalist, I just don't see his face at all and yet it's him.

Finished Griselda. Tailed off towards the end. Marta was stunning for a psycho. Could have had more episodes easily. Felt rushed the last two. 7/10

I enjoyed the first couple of series of Loudermilk but went off it and didnt return once he got left with the baby and the big fella left,I believe? It just got too samey and 'jumped the shark' as I remember.

 

Season 3 did start a bit slow, but I thought it was great after a couple of episodes. The mugsy story line across the last half of the season was very well done too I thought.

Season 2 of Kin up on the iPlayer now. Did 3 last night. Uncle Bren is such a great character. Fucking windy cunts!!

Agreed that he's a great character, one of the most despicable cunts to ever be in a TV show though.

New Guy was a great addition to the show as as it went on. Definitely the funniest one out of the group and I liked them all.

The real Griselda Bianco. Can't help but feel Vergara didn't really conjure reality the way Theron did in Monster.

Imagine casting one of the worlds most beautiful women to play her.

Not entirely convinced that isn't Tony's ma.

Sleepy Hollow S1 - 8/10. Loved it. No surprise really given it was the same team behind the superlative Fringe. It’s a shame knowing it was cancelled after S4 but I think I’m still going to enjoy getting there. Tom Mison was born for the role of Ichabod Crane.

Mate, that's a great search as I tried to find a younger version and couldn't. It was only the other one we can see. Fuck me though, that's more than a time change!

Well worth watching if you can find it. Richard Roxburgh is excellent as the seedy lawyer . He stars in another series just hit streaming services in Oz called Prosper which I still want to watch. About one of those charismatic cult preachers.

It's easy to find if you have Kodi, he plays the part perfectly imo.

2 more series to go , then I'll have a look at Prosper

Just watched episode 1 and it's excellent. Hugo Weaving's cameo as an economist cannibal was hilarious.

 

Great recommendation.

Just finished Kin now. Thought the bit with the chemist was all a bit mad, but another excellent series.

 

Off the top of my head, Bren is second only to Mick, out of This is England '86, as horrible cunts.

[polymerpunkah]

I'm enjoying Rake as well.

 

For some reason it's reminded me of "Rumpole of the Bailey", though a tad more adult in nature.

Just finished this. It was pretty good actually. 7.5/10.

Some decent characters and a few echoes of Lillehammer,with a bit less comedy.
