"Just finished the German series ‘Dark’ - absolute headfuck, starts like ‘Stranger Things’ and then goes off on a David Lynch type trip. Not sure it made sense but was wierdly watchable. Gonna have to rethink some of the scenes to join the dots. It’s set up nicely for an S2."

Hassan It's a shame we didn't see more of Alexandra Daddario in White Collar after the first few episodes.

"GLOW was excellent, i remember seeing this on Eurosport or similar when we first got sky and thinking it looked really shit but was addictive. Watching Ozark now. I am loving it. Very dark but very good."

Tashaki Some of the Gaga stuff was OK. The Swedish sisters. Lots of Joy Division OK I digress. Talking of which did anyone watch White Collar? Good series I thought.

"horror house & asylum are very good, lost its way with coven and has gradually got worse since. the gimmick of using the same actors in most series also doesn't help"

"Tashaki The first season of American Horror Story I thought was excellent and yes it's turned shit into something self indulgent and basically shit. I've also been recommended Glow. Besides what I've already mentioned (Power, Banshee etc) and I know I'm going to get destroyed for saying it (nothing new with my thick skin) I loved Revenge. Sort of Dynasty with Ninjas."

"If you want something funny, watch Brockmire. It’s about a baseball announcer that loses the plot live on air after going home early and finding his wife in the middle of an orgy. Absolutey hilarious"

"I've lost all patience with it. Besides, that bit of eurotrash in the lead role - his face annoys me. It's weirdly feminine. And Gillian Anderson annoys me. Plays the same character in every role. Staring, chilly, and speaking slowly. Boring and limited."

"'Hannibal' on Netflix I have tried really hard to like this, but it hasn't been easy. A few episodes into the third series and I'm going to give up now. Is it just me, or is it a massive pile of pretentious arse?"

"Didn't want to start a whole new thread, but was chatting about old TV things the other day and onto public information ads from the 70s and 80s... This is a vague memory but was there one from the 70s when 5 or 6 kids all visit some abandoned farm and end up dead...drowned etc?...I kind of remember seeing it back then?"

"yes, it ended well but a lot of it looked like it was made up as it went along. nice to see agnes depesto from moonlighting in something again, and gabriel byrne's episode as the drill loving mob boss was funny. not sure how they can make another series though"
