"Alfs 2:45 Sun Jan 10 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Coming to the end of the first season of The Morning Show. Jennifer Anniston is superb. Just started watching it, and have to agree it's absolutely class. To write a script revealing what utter bullying self obsessed cunts they all are in TV is brave. Also the black presenter with a race chip on his shoulder is either comedy genius or race baiting stereotyping depending on which side of the woke coin you are."

"Quite a way into Red Election and it is very good and well made, very much in the vein of the spy series Spooks that ran for so long about 10 years ago, the only thing you cant help but notice is the obvious wokeness!! The MI5 team is mainly woman and black people with assorted ethnic types in support, the only white bloke “on the team” is a ginger bloke with a very Irish name. All the bad, stupid or dislikeable characters are white men! Suspect we are going to get more of this from any British made series especially if the BBC or channel 4/5 have anything to do with it………."

"Just finished the last in the series of Narcos, the 6th one and the 3rd set in Mexico. Thought they might be spinning it out like a lot of other series, but IMO the last one turned out to be the best. The kind of separate but intertwined story of the copper having pangs of guilt and then looking into the disappearances and deaths of girls in the area could’ve been a small series/film in itself and the acting and how his character unravels was brilliant. Shame there isn’t a 7th and 8th"

"Colly - I'll finish this season but doubt I'll bother with season 4. I just can't see what has happened this season, the storyline has barely from on from episode one."

"Manuel 6:34 Fri Dec 10 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls I think this season has been excellent. Genuinely, and I’m not being smart here. But why don’t you stop watching something you quite clearly don’t enjoy?"

"Bit off topic and obviously for men of a certain age but I've only just discovered Mortimer & Whitehouse - Gone Fishing (BBC iplayer). Absolutely fantastic, and I don't fish... watched all 25 episodes in the last 2-3 weeks. Very therapeutic and funny... just like spending a couple of hours down the boozer with mates."

Succession is now an absolute fucking borefest. Eight 1 hour episodes in this season and literally nothing has happened. It's fucking awful.

Last episode of Mr Mercedes tonight the first series was brilliant second not so good third and last series has been a bit far-fetched as in someone will get shot in the leg and a couple of days later they're carrying someone on their shoulder !! Apart from all that I would recommend it as it was given the heads up on this thread. What to watch next then ?

"Watched the white lotus and thought it was very good, without being anything exceptional. I couldn't help thinking of the UK show Benidorm, though."

Miike - I just remember my mate getting me a ticket and me turning up! One of my mates drove and it took a couple of hours to find the car. Prodigy we’re brilliant and I was a huge Ocean Colour Scene fan back then too. FMC - I saw it on Sky Store and it said I had a free voucher via Sky VIP so I bought it using that! I think you can rent it for £2.99. Acquiesce sounded incredible live.

"Pagey, I was there too on the saturday. I thought the Prodigy stole the show, and agree the atmosphere was great. the only downside was having to get a train back to kings cross. I'll have a watch of that later"
