Came across this sketch apparently from the William Claude Dukenfield film ""Never Give a Sucker an Even Break".

 

5 minutes and 42 seconds of laugh out loud funny - time for me to view again WC Fields' films as I've seen them all but forgot this sketch completely:

New series just released with all episodes,

Traitors - some nakedness with an attractive young actress.

Northern Rescue - William Baldwin well past his sell-by date, nice scenery.

The Widow - Kate Beckinsale, she's hitting the wall right now, out in the Congo.

 

All watchable, but nothing special

Losers - enjoying this one at the minute.

 

Eight episodes, each about 25 minutes long.

 

Summary: In a "winning is everything" society, how do we handle failure? This series profiles athletes who have turned the agony of defeat into human triumph.

Good news gang.

 

Season 5 of Bosch starts next month.

 

 

Next month? That's good.

By then I may have started and got through:
S08 of Death in Paradise

S06 of Endeavour

S05 of Shetland

S05 of Luther

S03 of True Detective

S03 of Professor T

S02 of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel

 

BUT...who am I kidding? It'll just have to get in the queue on the hard drive for future reference.

There's too much good stuff around at the moment.

Yep, Derek was really good.

 

Has some of the actors from that in this one as well.

Review from The Guardian:

 

https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2019/mar/09/ricky-gervais-after-life

 

He shows so we'll the feelings of loss & despair when someone you love dies.

 

His 'Paedo' comment in ep1 made me laugh out loud. :clap2:

What's happening with the current spate of new releases on our favorite torrent sites, there aren't any, or at least nothing decent, just a proliferation of horror/paranormal rubbish. What is it with all these B grade, low budget horror flics, they must cost nothing to make with no name actors and plots a 10 year old would find insulting to their intelligence. Even the current choice of TV series is pretty dismal. Thank god I can enjoy a good book.

You missed the drama series 'The Widow' with Kate Beckinsale?

And 'Northern Rescue' with William Baldwin?

New seasons of Billions starts 17 March

 

The Case against Adnan Syed is a new 3 part hobo doc that just began....episode 1 was good.

 

After Life was brilliant....after a long time something good from Gervais.

 

The Widow was also surprisingly not bad.

I have trouble keeping up.

 

I watch a lot of series with subs though.

Have currently just finished After Life, The Inmate and Losers.

 

Currently watching Baptiste ,Cardinal, Suburra, Fleabag and Australian Crime Stories.

Plus there are always a few good documentaries each week.

 

I agree with you about the lack of quality movies though.

Lucky to be 4 or 5 real good ones per year I reckon.

Yes I agree, all too often I get disheartened at the absolute rubbish that's being thrust upon us - an example, which was heralded was Bodyguard: Complete <deleted>.

Then there's all those "Superhero" movies!! ????

 

Then, Will brightens things up with his suggestions. :smile:

 

After life, if you haven't seen it, was excellent.
