Tv Shows & Mini Series (Part 1)

Up to date with Wheel of Time… coming along nicely. Rand is a bit if a steamer, can’t remember his character fully from the books.

The irony of a lad in his 40s watching fantasy tv shows and calling a character in one a steamer.

Takes one to know one I suppose

I thought the first episode was a bit ropey but it’s coming along a bit. I’m not fully up to date though. I hope they manage to keep it going long enough to finish it out, it could get very good (or go to shite altogether).

True story on Netflix is decent. Zips along and not too taxing

The books are ridiculously long so in that regard it is zipping along but there’s 5/6 seasons bin it if they do it right

I was wondering myself if they were already gone past book one in the first season, if it’s successful they could lengthen it out to a season a book or more and get a good lot out of it. I enjoyed the books overall, quality went up and down but finished well. The actors playing Rand and Mat especially don’t seem great to me which doesn’t bode too well for it.

Is this Yellowstone worth watching it? I see it has a prequel now called 1883 which goes back six generations to when the present day inhabitants ancestors first took up residence at the ranch. It must be good if it’s already spawned a prequel.

It’s absolute nonsense.

Some shows go over the top on cliched characters but this one really takes the biscuit.

The great Bill Hader stealing the show in Curb this week. Splendid!

I thought it was the worst curb episode I’ve ever seen. Is it the one with the vase? The season as a whole has been very poor and it’s been gone that way a few years. The Latino girl who by the way can’t act had been good when on screen which hasn’t been much and there was one classic episode with the physio with the scruffy underpants and the overweight roofer but other than they episode it’s been meh would you agree?

The first 2/3 seasons I thought were good, the last season went a bit OTT and this season is a big flat, I’d recommend a watch (and I’m fussy)

New series of Gomorrah kicking off nicely. Episode 2 is off the charts. Eastern Europe has been a good hunting ground for previous episodes

Good episode but not as strong as some of the others in what has been a very good series. Ullman fucking hilarious. Larry repulsed by riding a woman who in real life is more than a decade younger than him!!

Larry got married last year. His new Mrs is 43 :joy:

Excellent so far.Life is cheap in Naples.I presume this is the last series.Unless there’s a spinoff which I don’t think would work the way this season is playing out.
