I really do like Cohen's work--but this wont be for everyone...& I am wondering why they needed 8 episodes to show it.

Ever-time I listen to it--My Kiwi Ex used to call it music to slash your wrist by. -- Typically, immersed in his poetry, when he decided to retire  he found that all his money had been stolen by his manager his Girlfriend & a few very close & caring friends---so we got to hear a few more years music form him before he died.

opensubtitles.com About the only decent one left. If you have Nova installed on your smart TV you can add subs from there.

Kodi addon a4ksubtitles gets subs from opensubtitles, addic7ed, podnadpisi(sp?), Etc. And it  works remarkably well.

[Henk Langeweg]

VLC has a subtitle add-on, works with opensubtitles. Works ok.

Slow Horses complete season 4 is on 1337x, TheRARBG, kickass and the bay.

Sorry if this has already been posted. If it has, I missed it.

This series just keeps getting better and better. The only flaw in season 4 was not enough Lamb

Looking forward to this one.

It's not very good IMHO. I think I'll go back and watch Aliens 2, directed by James Cameron. That's when he knew how to direct movies before all this Avatar junk.

I thought it was awful and fast forwarded most of it.

Talking about subtitles I stumbled across this earlier today, it has subtitles of course but would seem that it can  translate as well, don't know anymore than that, but it came up with a complete set of English subs for an old 2009 series called Code 37 where all the others had failed.

Agreed. Amateur millennials steal a ship that in reality they couldn't possibly fly, then they do Aliens-by-the-numbers. Bad. Spent maybe 20 min with it.

LGBTQ content that I've been recently watching.

 

 

I posted this in the Gay Forum but for whatever reasons people weren't participating there. As I think there are some good (and bad) picks in that topic there, I'm linking to it here in case you're interested in such shows.

Going forward, I will post such shows here as I have done in the past anyway.

Obviously, all kinds of people watch all kinds of content.

A good show with LGBTQ content is a good show -- period.
