Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls

[HairySpotter]

"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?"

[Manuel]

"I liked Black Bird but wouldn't go way overboard on it like you have. Mind you don't you love pretty much everything apart from Beatles docs? There are the great shows, then there's the rest, and this one gets filed under the rest."

[Northern Sold]

.... and the best thing about it it's only 6 episodes so your interest does not wander unlike some box sets that you start and they seem to go on for ever... Breaking bad etc...

[Northern Sold]

"Finished off Black Bird last night... thought it was absolutely superb... incredible performances from Egerton, Hauser and the late great Liotta... great stuff."

[Manuel]

"Yep, very possibly. Fancy there will be a few twists to come."

[ted fenton]

Agree Manuel so far I'm looking at the stepfather as the killer !!! Will watch again tonight

[Manuel]

"ted - I'm 3 in, it's a little slow imo and they are full one hour episodes, but it keeps you interested and looking forward to seeing how it plays out, as nothing appears that obvious as yet."

[ted fenton]

"Thanks Duke and Alfs got it ready to watch on The Crew.. Watched 2 episodes of ""The Night Of"" last night very good thanks for the heads up."

[nerd]

"Just finished Severance , quite good"

[Alfs]

"Thirteen Boys, about the Thai kids stuck in a cave is excellent, though I'm only half way through, as it's a long un. Probably wouldn't have watched it until I saw it was directed by Ron Howard. On Amazon."

[Queens Fish Bar]

Watching Stranger Things on Netflix. Just started season 2 - 7/10 for me so far. Will watch if nothing better to watch at the time.

"Don't know whether it has been mentioned here but I've just finished an Italian Sky Atlantic production, called Christian. Binged watched it thru Covid. Loved it and would recommend it to you lot."

chim chim cha boo 5:10 Thu Aug 11 Same here; Very few films these days are worth the effort to get to the Cinema never mind paying out the money to see one!

Ive got a brand new 4K LG and the terminal list is dark on mine. Every other program is I watch is perfect.

"Gaffer, Time to think about a new telly I'm afraid. Everything is now being filmed in 4K HDR (high dynamic range) and film makers are shooting stuff darker and darker because most new TVs can differentiate between black and not quite black. They do the same thing with whites too and proper highlights are now searingly white. It basically comes free with a pretty modern TV and especially OLED TVs (if you're using a top spec Samsung, Sony or Apple etc phone it's the same technology) and looks and sounds fantastic - bundles better than an older TV. In fact it's a bit weird to go to the cinema and be constantly reminded that unless they are like a Lux and use a proper digital projector the cinema picture can't render black properly and is instead a muddy dark grey. It's got to the point where given the choice nine out of ten times I'd rather watch a film on my 65 inch Panasonic than pay 12 quid to watch it at my shitty local cinema."

[Gaffer58]

"Just started The Terminal List, but finding it hard going because every scene is filmed at either night or with very poor lighting."

[Manuel]

"Started The Night Of, think it's going to be a good one."

[DukeofDevo]

"ted fenton 5:49 Tue Aug 9 Sorry Ted only just seen your question. I watched it on The Crew add on, I don’t know if you’ve got that one, if not it’s probably on any of the tv/film add ons on Kodi"

[Manuel]

"Roger that, bell."

[bell]

Manuel.. Yeah it's definitely worth a watch. Not loads of episodes to drag it out either.

[Manuel]

Has anyone seen a HBO mini-series called The Night of? Got very good reviews.
