Popular Post KhunLA 16369 Posted January 1 Popular Post Share Posted January 1 @BritManToo Agree ... Tulsa King is excellent. Watched all available last night. Highly recommend. Oh yea, for others ... the trailer sucks, as had no desire to watch after viewing the trailer, and nothing what I expected, thankfully. Without B2's recommendation, I would have given it a pass, and a missed opportunity. 7 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddypower 1056 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) ''Three Pines'' (season 1: 8 part mini series) the blurb: A man investigates murders in Three Pines; he sees things that others do not: the light between the cracks, the mythic in the mundane, and discovers long-buried secrets and faces a few of his own ghosts. highly rated at IMBd.

A master thief and his crew attempt an epic and elaborate heist worth $7 billion dollars but betrayal, greed and other threats undermine their plans Thanks .. looks good. I watched the first episode of The Peripheral - and didn’t find it of great interest, but glad I took the time to rewatch from the start, really into it. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing 94872 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) Mr. Harrigan's Phone is a Stephen King story based movie and quite a good one. The trailer makes it seem as if there are super scary parts and I think that's misleading. It's more of a head trip type of thing and for me an enjoyable one.

Mutt Daeng 4896 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) I've just watched the first 3 (of 4) episodes of season 1 of Without Sin. Very good and well worth a look IMHO. It's a crime drama based in Mansfield/Nottinghamshire. Cast includes Vicky McClure (Line of Duty) I got it from TGx. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15680030/ Edited January 3 by Mutt Daeng 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaywalker2 881 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Dalgliesh. Based on the PD James novels. Bertie Carvel as the title character fits the part well. Each case is a two parter with a total of six episodes. There is a little wokeness but it doesn't become overwhelming. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing 94872 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) Abbott Elementary It's a HIT. Now in it's second season, it has become a very popular (and in my opinion worthy) comedic show that is rivalling the previous popularity of Modern Family. It's mostly about the teacher's characters in an inner city Philadelphia school and they are really fun characters to watch. It's even better for me because I get all the Philly references but not at all required.

Popular Post bamnutsak 5675 Posted January 4 Popular Post Share Posted January 4 +1 for Kaleidoscope. Recommend reading about it, sans spoilers, to determine the best order - episodes are titled by colors and can be watched in any order - for YOU to watch. I took it straight up, as Netflix offered. Brilliant ensemble cast led by Giancarlo Esposito. Glass Onion, OK. 7.5/10 Wednesday awesome 9.5/10 The Recruit 8/10, likeable spy romp. Traitor, so-so 7/10. Slow Horses, part 2, 9.5/10. Love this show, as close to LeCarre as possible, maybe it's because Gary Oldman also protrayed George Smiley. I must read the books. Loving the Taylor Sheridan Streaming Network...1883, 1923, Yellowstone...Tulsa King...Mayor of Kingstown Season 2 coming soon, prayers for Jeremy Renner to make a full recovery. I liked The Peripheral. Will watch Jack Ryan part 3. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KannikaP 11449 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Started LIVINENKO on ITVx, but noticed a few 'inconsisitencies' in it. So on ITVx there is also a documentary on it, with interviews with original cops etc and clips from the Series. 48 minutes and it was sorted as opposed to 8 episodes of 'imaginary' dialogue.

Season 2 was pretty wild with the misguided character/star going in and out of la-la land. Impressive performance the ending detoured into familiar Steven King nuttiness. overall, a fair show. Has anyone watched season 3 ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stereotypical sadistic villain. Had great potential.
