"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

Started series 6 of Better Call Saul today.Kicking off where series 5 ended. Which is very well. It was always going to suffer from comparison with its predecessor. However on its day. It’s been more than a equal to Breaking Bad. All hail the king.!

"I agree Manuel. 1st season of Killing Eve was fresh, different, funny, brilliantly violent, then PWB left, they rushed out a season 2, and it's been gash since then."

First episode of Outer Range was excellent. Good actors Josh Brolin and the loveable Imogen Poots. 3 episodes into Moon Knight and it’s good fun . Sad seeing the late Gaspard Ulliel

Will be watching BCS over the weekend. Early indications are that it's good. Loads of peoplel had given 10/10 on imdb before it was even released. Why do people do that? Fucking happy clappy idiots.

"Watching Killing Eve 4 as seen the others and this mercifully is the last series. As expected it is fucking awful, it doesn't even take itself seriously anymore. Rarely known such a decline of a show after a good first series. First 2 episodes of BCS are now on Netflix. It doesn't disappoint."

Alfs - I thought that too. It was about 45/60 minutes too long. I was huffing about half way through.

"Just finished the latest James Bond. Fuck me, what was going on in the script room? The cold hearted killer, Bond, getting all sentimental - oh do fuck off. And the denouement looking like a video game when you've played the same level twenty times. Time to retire it now - but they won't."

"Slow horses on apple is a good watch an all star cast featuring Gary Oldman as a sleuth MI5 agent. Watched three episodes out of four (4th available this Friday, ) well worth a view."

TV made by committee. That’s how the wheels fell off with Game of Thrones. The Beeb been doing this for years. Little wonder most people want rid of the license. Trying to be all things for all people. Just pisses everyone off.!

Peaky Blinders fell off a cliff during the fourth series. Very strange series regardless with plots disappearing constantly

"I thought it was ok but this series but not as enjoyable as the earlier series with Sam Neill in etc. They definitely had an eye out for the film, so none of the main characters were killed off. I was expecting Arthur to go at the very least. I'm not sure what the film will be about, probably develop his feud with Moseley."

"What did people think of the Peaky Blinders finale? For me I thought it was a right old mess, clearly they found out late in the day they would be making a film so there was some bizarre plotting and a lot of unresolved storylines, shame as I was enjoying the series but felt like it needed a really good final episode to wrap everything up."

Beat Freak’s second and third posts were unnecessary. Much like seasons two and three of Westworld.

Winning Time: The Rise Of The Lakers Dynasty. By the guy who made The Big Short. Plenty of faces in it. And I don’t like the Lakers. But it’s a lot of fun.
