Blue Lights S2 has started just as well as S1. Cracking show.

Just watched episode 2. Shaping up to be better than season 1.

Oh, so Total Longo’s mate is a liar, is he?

Definitely, his mate is taking the absolute piss out of him. 

 

Bet he's laughing behind Total Longo's back and telling all his other mates what a mug he's made of him.

Totally agree,excellent writing.

Masters of the Air went with characters that were too All American and unlikeable. Visually stunning and told the horrors of flying bombers in WW2, but should have been much better. 
Memphis Belle had already shown most of those horrors though. 
On the back of this I watched Band of Brothers and The Pacific again, superb shows. 
Episode 10 of BofB, is one of the most powerful things I’ve seen, really gets to the heart strings and makes you cry, not just for the prisoners but for the  shock and dis-belief of the soldiers having to witness that.

Not seen anyone mention How To with John Wilson, it’s on iPlayer. 
18 episodes just under 30 mins long. 
 

It’s a comedy documentary where he starts an episode with a random idea like How to throw out your batteries and he takes to the streets of New York with his camera filming people, talking to people and it veers from the insane to the ludicrous and somehow fits comedy, darkness and sadness into each episode.
A bit like Louis Theroux with a handheld camera. 

[SasaS]

It has been mentioned.

[Barrington Womble]

The Regime with Kate Winslet and Hugh grant pops in for an episode. 7/10. A batshit dramedy, which is essentially a love story wrapped up in a mental story about a woman running a central European state while being insane. While I was watching it, I kept wondering why I liked it and didn't know. But it was easy to watch (in fact I watched in in just 4 of 5 nights) even if it was a little predictable at the end.

Shogun. It's good but Jesus Christ,it's slow. Glacial paced would be an understatement. 

[Arniepie]

Documentary on I player about the aftermath of Kurt cobains suicide.

It was good but a proper Documentary about nirvana would have been better.

Even after all these years you can't help thinking..you stupid bastard.

 

7/10

[Anubis]

Alex Rider S2 - 7/10.

Alex Rider S3 - 7.5/10.

 

Both better than the first series which was too slow.

I've watched the first 2 episodes of Baby Reindeer and it's good, the bird is fucking crackers and the actress is doing a great job portraying her.

I'd argue that it's good, it isn't. Everyone is a miserable cunt, there's hardly any action, Mariko is a total fucking head buster and Toranaga-sama is a massive incompetent with a sniffle.

 

Looks great but 2/10

[Elite]

Blue Lights S2 - 8.5/10

 

Absolutely brilliant show this. Great characters, story and performances. The Irish making some immense stuff lately.

 

3 episodes into Baby Reindeer, it's captivating and a little scary how mental the stalker is. Don't be nice to weird people is the lesson here.

It’s really good. It’s gets darker. There’s a bit of an issue of twitter today trying to identify the characters.

Yeah saw that.

 

Ironically, the wrong people may get stalked instead. She's obviously mentally ill, she's likely in a mental health unit.

 

The writer needs calling out probably done it to countless others after an investigation first though, if indeed guilty.

 

The shows great though, dark but also hilarious at times.

I am pretty sure she posts on here.

Just finished Shogun, it was preposterous utter shite, unfathomable nonsense.

 

2/10 is being generous

I'm enjoying Masters of the Air far more than I thought I would. Yes,there is a bit of 'The Yanks are coming to Save the Day' to it but being honest they pretty much did!  A few dodgy US accents from British actors but it's well made,well acted (mostly) and the CGI is brilliant. It's just a shame that I know how it ends! Seriously though,Apple TV stuff is becoming the 'Go to' tv series stuff at the moment.

[bossy]

I’m enjoying the Gentleman in Moscow series and thought Baby Reindeer was brilliantly done, but it’s definitely intense. As some light relief started watching 3rd Rock From the Sun for the first time in years and it’s still amusing.

Maybe they'll let the Germans win to surprise you.

Yeah, excellent show. His acting in episode 6 whilst on stage was top class.

 

You can't help but to admire the guy to reveal his entire soul and trauma to the world, you can tell he didn't hide anything at all.

Just watched the first episode of Mammoth on BBC.

 

Comedy about a 1970’s PE Teacher who miraculously comes back to life in 2024.

 

Her out of Car Share is in it, as is the Butler from The Fresh Prince of Bell Air.

 

I expected it to be shit, I was just killing time. 
 

Maybe because of my low expectations I actually quite enjoyed it. I will certainly watch at least another episode. 
 

Could go either way.
