"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?"

[Percy Dalton]

Was looking forward to SAS Rogue Heroes but was underwhelmed with the script. Why do they jazz scripts up to compete with US war films. Couldn't imagine in a million years that Stirling would have said come on let's go and win the war. Hopefully it will improve but I'm not holding my breath.

"Northern Sold 3:40 Mon Oct 24 Thanks for this, hadnt' heard of it. Unbelievable scenes and scenery."

GofT House of Dragons was OK. Noit enough action for my liking. As for LotR. What a pile of shite. The most expensive series to date and yet made it look like it was made by The History Channel.

[Northern Sold]

Just watched the last in the series of the GofT House of Dragons... bit of a slow burner the series but fuck me what a season finale that was... proper edge of the seat stuff....

BRANDED 3:09 Mon Oct 24 The novel is seminal in the SF world. Also same creators/production team behind Westworld.

"Hated Picard, turned it off at the sword fighting bit. Let out an audible groan. And off it went"

"Agreed on The Peripheral. Watched the first 2 episodes and thought it was a good watch. Have also been watching Picard on Amazon which is a good watch if you like Sci-Fi. Have always been able to take or leave Star Trek but it's decent and some good nods back to the past with charachters and references that you don't have to be a trekkie nerd to get. Enjoyed Rings of Power, too."

[BRANDED]

I watched the first episode of the peripheral last night. Very interesting and highly enjoyable. Kinda a bit matrix but more wedded to modern realities. Looking forward to the rest of it.

The Peripheral on Amazon Prime is excellent. Probably the best series out right now. Chloë Grace Moretz is stunningly beautiful.

"Maybe I'll get panned for this but watched 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' on the iPlayer almost by accident as I generally hate BBC3. Written and starring Daisy May Cooper who had completely passed me by with that show 'This Country' which I never watched. Anyway, AIBU? is absolutely fucking superb. I'd go so far as calling it genius. Yeah, yeah yeah it has the disabled kid and the black woman going out with her white husband but they are utterly central to the story and in no way did they feel shoehorned in. The show could give lessons to Tarantino on how to move back and forwards in time, each scene shot from one perspective then showing it later from a slightly different angle which reveals what really happened. You watch it thinking 'I know who did it' then it throws you another curve ball that gets you thinking all over again. A clever, clever six short episodes. Funny as fuck too. It's something to cling to as we all man the lifeboats from UK PLC. We still make some great TV."

"Northern - watched that recently. Pretty harrowing stuff, and in the middle of that you have absolute dregs of civilisation like the Israeli guys (particularly Yaar) and that entirely predictable American guy who “doesn’t feel guilty about anything”."

[Northern Sold]

Just watched the three parter on Netflix Aftershock all about 2015 Nepal earthquake... some of the footage is barely believable... incredible stories as well

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

"Just finished and would recommend Dopesick - a miniseries about the big pharma company Purdue, that illegally promted the deadly opioid oxycontin to an innocent American public, with the help of an entirely corrupt FDA. I look forward to the future Pfizer miniseries in about 20 years, when the current scumbags that profit from regulated poison are finally exposed."

"Side - I would agree with that, to make out that right wing extremism is more than a threat in the UK than Islamic fundamentalism was rubbish, disappointing but not unexpected."

"Finished ""The Offer"" last night...Loved it thanks for the recommendation. Now what's next ?"

[Side of Ham]

"New Jersey, I watched the first episode of that walk in and indeed Stephen Graham was excellent but the subliminal wokeness on a true story to make white people the worst of all the terrorism that goes on over here was ridiculous. For instance there was a scene where it was obviously an EDL type march where the opposition protestors were all Asian women.....behave ffs....at least show the scum which sits on both sides of this type of shit....in fact just tell the truth of it....instead you end up watching a half truth at best....."

Mark Kermode is a twat like most critics.

"House across the street on Channel 5 is building up quite nicely. Also liked the Walk in, Stephen Graham was excellent as ever."
