"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?"

Yup The Terminal List on Amazon Prime is a good watch shame about the mumbling dialogue. Yet another series where characters can endure falling off cliffs and being shot and still be able to run off ! That said we will continue to watch it ;-)

"Chim - Yep, I'm still watching, 2 left, it does get better and even Rick Astley is winning me over a bit. The child killer portrayal is indeed very good."

"Manuel 9:41 Sat Aug 6 I totally get where you're coming from. That flash cսnt Jimmy is pretty unlikable in the first few episodes. It's full of seemingly miss-cast characters but it somehow got under my skin and I couldn't wait for the next episode. By the end, Jimmy becomes a totally different character, beaten down by the system. I promise it's worth persevering with and the child killing monster deserves a Golden Globe for his portrayal. They show you a picture of the real killer right at the end and the actor is an absolute ringer."

"Just watched Trainwreck Woodstock ‘99 on Netflix! Absolute carnage, i don’t remember this at the time but i guess with no social media and Internet these things could easily escape us."

"Each his own, ted, I will probably finish it anyway since it's only 6 episodes, just thought the plot was daft, some wooden acting, and I didn't like the main character Jimmy."

That's the problem with true stories. They can be a bit far fetched. Might have been better if they'd taken more artistic licence with it rather than tell it like it happened.

"Alfs - I thought the same, Im 2 episodes in and the stroryline is just ridiculous, I might end up finishing it though."

"I have to disagree, Ted. I found it underwhelming, with more plot holes than the pot holes in our disintegrating roads. It was, IMO, a two hour film stretched into a five hour series. I won't say much more as I don't want to spoil it for others. I did think that the burn sided one put in an exceptional performance though."

2 episodes into The Terminal List on Amazon Prime. About a navy seal and the subsequent fall out after a blown mission. Very good.

"Gave Black Bird a start, only one episode in but to me just seems like average, run of the mill stuff, like the vast majority of shows out there? If I'm going to commit hours watching something it needs to be a lot better than just alright, will give the second episode a go to see if it gets any better. Really enjoying BCS, just 2 episodes left."

"Another vote for Black Bird which really reminded me of the first series of Mind Hunter, if you like that kind of thing."

"jfk 2:10 Sat Jul 16 I'm going to take your recommendation of Percy Dalton's recommendation, and give it a go. The trailers look very good. I've also found a free stream link, if anyone doesn't fancy making Apple any richer."

"The Boys - Amazon Prime people with 'superpowers' marketed as superheroes by a corrupt company for profit - but most of the superheroes have deep character flaws. The Boys are a group of people trying to take them down for various reasons. lots of money spent on special effects, very sweary and gory...worth a watch"
