Countdown

Countdown

 

Actually 8 out of 10 cats does countdown !

A fusion of 8 out of 10 cats ( a comedy panel show) and Countdown ( serious spelling and maths game show )

 

Not trying to be pedantic, but if someone searches for Countdown expecting a laugh (as in your video) they would be sorely disappointed !!

 

Actually a very funny long running program ( 16 series) most available on YouTube.

What's the verdict?

[faraday]

Episode 1 of this Swedish Cop TV series was ok. Not special, but worth a butcher's. (Look)

It's Elite, no The, and it's Spanish with HC subs. That's if it's the same series you are talking about.

I enjoyed "Lodge 49", (AMC weekly and streaming, all 10 eps. available) slower pace (glacial?, makes BCS look like the Roadrunner), quirky and vaguely reminiscent of "Terriers" (2010). Brilliantly written, awesome characters, great cast, and acting. Bruce Campbell and Cheech Marin were pleasant surprises. Kurt Russell/Goldie Hawn's son Wyatt is great as "Dud".

Bojack Horseman remains the best show on TV. Though you may need to be American to get 100% of the jokes, we are an odd lot.

I hear the bodyguard series is quality so I'm wondering why I read a few bad reviews on here.

It was ok, but nowhere near as good as Line of Duty; it seemed a bit implausible.

 

It is worth watching though.

Are you comparing it with Line of Duty regards police internal affairs?  Great tv show but if so i can't see the comparison at all.  Bodyguard was above average but not great.

Both written by Jed Mecurio. So yes, I am comparing the two.

Ok na?

Ah yes, ok.  Must admit then, in that case yes, compared to the brilliant Line of Duty it wasn't quite as good as it might have been but still very watchable!!

"Free Churro" (S05E06) recently supplanted "Fish Out of Water" (S03E04) as one of my all-time favorite TV episodes.

Informer 

 

Last night UK thriller.....6 episodes---I haven't viewed yet...

 

A young, second generation Pakistani man in East London is coerced by a Counter-Terrorism officer to go undercover and work for him.

[sanuk711]

Pine Gap 

Oz mystery thriller.......last night...........6 episodes

 

Set in the intensely secretive world of intelligence and the enigmatic US/Australia joint defence facility in central Australia, the spy-thriller Pine Gap delves into the famously strong alliance between the two countries

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Said by the Americans to be their most important military base outside USA, as it can cover all of Asia----- Edward Snowden took the gloss off of that a bit with copies of documents reveling that this facility also eavesdrops and collects information on citizens, including Oz. 

[Will27]

Looking forward to this one.

Released later this week.

The Rutles. On You Tube. A Brit Movie send up of the Beetles. I like Brit humour. As Mark Twain said. German Humour in no Laughing Matter.

Im a high fan of Korean films…the storytelling, acting and technical skills beat the pants off hollywood….which it seems can only do special effects really well.

Anyway this is a gem of a love story…not as mushy as Me Before You….but a more grown up and realistic look.

"A Man and A Woman".

Last night "The Spy Gone North" at the London Film Festival.

For any that like Chinese films,they are good stories usually,and this one is really good,its a few years old but give it a try.
