"Part way through Season 2 of Mr Mercedes and as much as I liked season 1 i'm thinking of ditching it. It's just got stupid. Incidentally, anyone who likes Dynasties with Attenborough, it's on iplayer in UHD for compatible TVs."

"Ray Donovan was shit last season too, they changed writers. Anyone that has attended a class at the BFI should have been able to immediately spot this and given it a huge swerve over a year ago...... ;-)"

"Dunno really mate, but imo this is the best it's been in a while. I've gave up on Narcos Mexico, absolutely appalling and with some shocking acting. A classic case of one too many."

Another Day yeah I felt that Ray Donovan had slipped a bit. Not sure I like the idea it being set in NY. It had a sleazy LA feeling about it I liked.

"The first 3 seasons of Narcos was the dogs...I'm 2 episodes into the new season and it's shit. On a positive, Ray Donovan is back on form this season, all based in NYC now."

"Let's just say Swiss that you only have to watch any of these Narcos series to wonder why so many people over here moan about everything and anything. Cunts don't know how lucky there are being born into such a fairly normal country, as those South American's are some mad fuckers. especially back then!!!"

Grumster Yeah its good how Narcos Mexico is running pretty much parallel from Narcos SE01. I assume it will link up with the end of SE03 which I actually thought was the best season even though it's not about Escobar but the Cali Cartel.

"Half way through the last Narcos Mexico episode and was going to give the Coen bros thing a go next. As for Narcos and not knowing about this particular one historically, didn't see that coming at the beginning of this episode!!"

"Not a box set, but just watching Dynasties. As an animal lover I can barely enjoy it, with the poor fucker penguins getting smashed by the wind and dying everywhere. Too drawer from the crew intervening to save a load of them."

Takashi Was juts going to post that. Saw a few episodes yesterday. Excellent stuff. That El Padrino was nasty guy. What he really did to the DEA agent was sickening. And the beginnings of El Chapo Good they got actors who played Escobar and Cali cartel in it.

"Not a recommendation - but someone might be interested in watching it: Britain’s Youngest Football Boss Britain’s Youngest Football Boss follows top flight football club West Ham United women’s team and their 19-year-old Managing Director Jack Sullivan. As women’s football explodes into the mainstream in the run-up to next summer’s World Cup, Jack’s dad David Sullivan, one of the richest men in Britain and the Chairman of West Ham United, has tasked Jack with transforming the club’s fortunes. Filming on and off the pitch across the season, the series will follow the progress of a squad of female players as they debut in the professional Women’s Super League. Having leap-frogged two divisions from the part-time third tier into the newly-revamped league, West Ham United women’s team will now, for the first time, compete at the highest level of the sport, against some of the toughest teams in the world. Jack’s first full-time job since leaving school at 16 will be overseeing a squad of 18 outspoken, powerful women, and trying to raise the profile of a growing sport often dismissed and derided by male fans. With exclusive access to the club, players and backroom staff, as well as to Jack and his larger-than-life family, this is a revealing and inspiring behind-the-scenes story of what it takes to be a professional female footballer in today’s game, and whether a loveable but inexperienced teenager can change the face of women’s football. Britain’s Youngest Football Boss (w/t) is made by Curious Productions for BBC Three. Charlie Russell and Dov Freedman are the Executive Producers. It was commissioned by Damian Kavanagh, Controller of BBC Three and David Brindley, Head of Commissioning, Popular Factual and Factual Entertainment. The BBC Commissioning Executive is Michael Jochnowitz. The first two episodes will be released on BBC Three on Wednesday 5 December 2018. https://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2018/bbc-three-scores-new-commissions"
