West Ham Online

"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?"

Yes I agree Capture IS brilliant!

I’m enjoying The Capture on Netflix. First 4 episodes were brilliant 

Cobra Kai final 5 episodes ever is about to come out (13th Feb)

I’ve loved every second of it.

Finally finished "Before" crap ending that really didn't do the series justice 

Alfs - Did you watch Out There, recent ITV drama set in Wales with Martin Clunes? I thought it was good, then again what ain't with Clunes.

I'm 4 eps in to Paradise.  Excellent so far.  Don't want to say much as it's full of twists and turns.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27444205/

Stumbled across Boston Legal recently. Probably about 15ish years old? Not sure how I missed it before but incredibly funny and slips in great commentary through the trials of many of the idiocies of the US.

It's a legal comedy starring William Shatner and James Spader as two unlikely lawyer friends plus many familiar other actors too (including Candice Bergen!).

It's on All 4 but the adverts every couple of minutes (US style) mean we actually bought an old DVD boxset (cheap as chips now)  to make watching it bearable.

Highly recommended if you don't know it.

Reacher is back end of Feb.

Not back actually, thought I'd hate it but quite amusing.

As per usual I’m miles behind everyone else. On season 2 of Dexter. 

part  8 of 8...
The whole series should be taught in schools .

 

Season 4 of Only Murders in The Building is great. Good cameos from Eugene Levy, Zach Galifiankis, Paul Rudd and Eva Longoria. 

Anyone interested in seeing ten minutes or so of West Ham related content should watch Episode 2 of Public Disorder on Netflix where the Italian riot squad are sent in to police the build up to a Roma versus West Ham game. Plenty of claret and blue flag waving plus several choruses of "West Ham are massive" 

The Traitors 

So after seeing is splashed on every media website I see..BBC , MSN, etc , etc. I decide to watch a few episodes from the beginning. So a group of really boring people sort gang up on each other in two groups and bitch about each other. What a plie of shit and yet it seems to be highly rated. and hyped to hell. 

Am I missing something here? 

The 2nd season of Silo is out now, stars Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Robbins & Common.
And as regards to Rebecca Ferguson...I definitely would.

I really think you need to give it more than one episode. As it happens I think the first episode is the worst with the exception of the last maybe. It gets better and better. 

The Jackal?
If you have read the book and seen the  original film then that ends all debate...
Tried times and failed three times

The Sinner with old croaky voiced Bill Pullman was top tv imo, think there were 4 seasons in total, with the first 2 being the best, so yea it did go downhill a bit like a lot of them do.
