"No TV has been as good or classy as Gomorrah. On my second watching due to missing things first time round and also learning Italian. Keep trying recommendations of other box sets but Gomorrah is a difficult series to beat. Even 2nd time round is hits you. As for documentary, Waco I have seen many Youtube docs and films about Waco, but this has unseen footage and phenomenal editing. Seeing the tension in the negotiators cabin and how many of them. The FBI and ATF really fucked up and surely responsible for the deaths of 28 kids and 70 odd nutters. I reckon the FBI or ATF started the fire."

"Town Called Malice is simply atrocious, acting more wooden than long John silver's leg, shouldn't be a comedy but the only way to explain how bad it is would be to class it as such. The constant cramming in of 'Saaaaaaf London' lingo is a joke and quite pathetic. Jason Flemming must really need a pay cheque to put his name to this absolute pile of shite."

"LeroysBoots 1:00 Absolute class television. Shit that this is the last season, but glad they are finishing it when they should rather then keeping it ambling along past it's natural conclusion because it's a money maker. Storytelling integrity over dollar. So few shows go out on their own terms at the right time and die a painful slow death as everything is milked out of them due to the greed of the execs at the channel. Lost Dexter The Walking Dead The X files (Happy Days- literally the genesis of jumping the shark) and so on with countless more examples."

"Just watched Daisy Jones and The Six on Amazon. Its a fictional story about a pop rock band in the 70s from a book of the same name based loosely on Fleetwood Mac. Its really about a band with men and women in it, their off camera relationships, drugs, sex and rock and roll. I liked it as it did manage to get a glimpse at the lives of such people outside their music making but also made the development from beginings to hits and how that might look like. I doubt it would be to everyone’s taste but if it sounds interesting to you give it a go."

"Anyone who calls a console ""a machine"" plays with consoles. Not sure what parents let their ""kiddies"" play games like The Last of Us. Is this thread about a TV show or men trying to prove they don't play games consoles. 🤔 For me the last of us and all zombie shows are not really my bag. Below Deck is a bit of me at the moment 😂😂"
