"you did the same about that netflix zombie film that was a steaming pile of shit. good critic reviews doesn't make something good, especially when most are paid to suck off certain creators/producers/directors"

The Boys probably is the best thing on TV.

"Im inclined to agree with Bell, The Boys is brilliant and to just think of it as some sort of Marvel/Super Hero programme really is missing the point. Its the antithesis of a traditional super hero show."

"After thinking Stranger things had got a bit mundane half way through season 3, I really enjoyed the final few episodes and I'm looking forward to season 4. As Arsene Wenger said, We all think we've got the prettiest wife!"

"I don't doubt the production quality of that show, but it was worn out by the end of series two. I had a watch of the first two episodes of S4 but apart from the character Eddie, it was all a bit shit"

"Sold0, no one's trying to be edgy, you prat. The most popular TV show for a decade was X-Factor, don't mean it was any good ffs The first series was ok, as I said the music and 80's vibe was all very COOL, but let's be honest, it's a kids TV programme, and this 4th series is just the same old shit as the other 3."

I still haven’t got to grips with series two of Westworld. It’s hard to follow the last episode of Series one which may be the single best episode of telly I’ve seen.

Series 4 of Westworld got off to a poor start. series 3 was so bad and it needs to recover fast. Arron Paul is a bad casting he’s just boring. Another poor show is Halo on the piss poor Paramount Plus (on Sky it buffers far too much). I loved this game growing up but they have turned the main killing machine character into an broken man.

"Just finished the penultimate episode of Sherwood, it's been quite absorbing up to now, although you have to plod through the first episode or so as it's a bit of a pedestrian start. No dozing in your chair for this one - if you miss 10 or 15 minutes it soon gets away from you."

"No worries Ted, glad you read it as I intended it to read….Sherwood is v. good so far and I’m hoping the miners gripes with each other are historically accurate…..as it gives a bit of an education to some one like me who was not bothered at the time due to being in my early teens….I do remember us singing ‘Scab’ to the Forest fans back then? Or I could be wrong? Any way enjoy if you do get to watch it….."

Stranger Things Season 3 was a season too far. Eleven to the rescue again shock horror. Really dragged out and was far too boring. Still Netflix needs a success as it's subscribers are wilting.

"Ted, don’t take offence as it’s not a dig but I think it’s better received by those who had their puberty around the early 80’s and onwards and those prior will have a more sensible view of it. On another note I’m really enjoying Sherwood like others are….."
