Popular Post GinBoy2 Posted November 13, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2016 So, I'm 4 episodes in to 'The Crown' on Netflix. Can't quite make up my mind whether I love or hate it. I'm a self confessed Anglophile, and I love the historical context of the show, but I'm having a hard time relating to the characters. They seem, to me at least, shadows of the real people, very bland. Compared to Helen Mirran's portrayal in 'The Queen, I'm really struggling with Claire Foy as Elizabeth 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GinBoy2 Posted November 13, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2016 Another roll of my Anglophile taste. OMG, first episode of Planet Earth 2; Islands. Now I'm an American, I do however subscribe to my local PBS station, which will I'm sure at some point air this, so at least i feel some justification in this post This is what public television was made for. Dump the Bake Offs, Eastenders, let commercial television do that! This is a truly remarkable piece of television, impossible to be to made in the commercial world, Thank You BBC 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GinBoy2 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Since I was singing the praises of public broadcasting, here's my equally OMFG how awesome is this, commercial TV accolade. Westworld on HBO is just about as awesome as it gets. Just finished watching episode 7, and it just keeps getting better. So, we only have 3 more episodes to go, but the prospect of a season 2 is looking promising... https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1583880/will-westworld-get-renewed-for-season-2-heres-what-an-hbo-exec-says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the TV sitcom, for the most part, I 'liked' this for the most part I found it OK, but as with many a sitcom they are of their time, and you need to know when its time to hang up the shingle. Some are timeless; Frasier, Faulty Towers, Friends...this isn't one of them I'd place this on the 'slightly past the sell by date' discount counter at the supermarket...still edible but definitely discounted Edited November 14, 2016 by GinBoy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has hard encoded subs. IMDB: She broke the law for the boss she fell in love with. Now this naive girl has to pay the price. Finally go around to watching this one in it's entirety. Thought it was fantastic. If you like a good prison show, give it a try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tukkytuktuk Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 If you’re not watching Last Week Tonight with John Oliver on HBO, you are depriving yourself of experiencing one of the funniest and most informative programs on television right now. Oliver and his team are working at a level on par with Jon Stewart in his prime. I consider the show to be unmissable.Saw episode 30 last night, absolutely hilarious a must watch if you hate Donald Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Tv series - Shooter This one didn't really do it for me I'm afraid. Just the usual corrupt government agents, conspiracies and a healthy does of clichés thrown in. IMDB: A conspiracy thriller that follows the journey of Bob Lee Swagger, a highly-decorated veteran who is coaxed back into action to prevent a plot to kill the President.

evadgib Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) I stumbled upon a 2013 epic version of 'The Bible' the other day from the History channel; 10 x 90 min episodes.

Not very good, Chance. Looked like it had potential at the beginning. But there are few ongoing series I find worth watching except Westworld, so I'm watching it. Looking forward to the next seasons of the really good stuff finally getting out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank James Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 The Fall...it's over Finally made it to the end of The Fall. As someone else wrote, the conclusion was quite satisfactory. Gillian Anderson (such a classically beautiful woman) and Jamie Dornan were fantastic in their roles. I wonder if it messed with JD's mind to play such a deeply disturbed man. I can't say I'll miss it, but it played just long enough (3 sets of 6 episodes) and went dark when there was no more to say. Now, when is Line of Duty coming back? 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
