I decided to download some of the "Cheers" episodes and specifically looked for those with Kirsty Alley in them, as I thought she was better than Shelley Long (IMO).

 

I managed to locate them on 1337.x.to and have been chuckling about the few I watched so far, so I'm pleased that I downloaded them – – the one-liners and quick wit and repartee are delightful. Many more to watch.

I don't post much but had to say Norm is my hero.  I love Cheers!

 

It is like the UK version of "Men behaving badly" I could watch those shows every day.

What about one of the versions of A Christmas Carol?

 

A Christmas Carol;   2009 version with Jim Carrey,  Gary Oldman, Colin Firth

 

or

A Christmas Carol 1984 Stars George C. Scott, Frank Finlay, Angela Pleasence

 

or my favorite:

A Christmas Carol;1951   Stars  Alastair Sim, Jack Warner, Kathleen Harrison

 

or

It's a Wonderful Life  1946  with  James Stewart  Donna Reed  Lionel Barrymore

 

 

yes, Alastair Sim attained immortality through this version....

[xylophone]

Thanks for the Heads Up on Conclave as I really enjoyed it, and the ending was totally unexpected and even then it had a few twists and turns. IMO a good movie and it touches on/explores issues at the very heart of the Catholic faith in various ways.....thought provoking.

Watched Boardwalk empire s01 again. Fortunately I've forgotten most of it.

But can't locate S02 that's of a sensible size.

 

If anyone has a link to a file around 5Gb, please pm me.

Maybe I'm going crazy, but I seem to have a hard time lately finding movies to watch that aren't totally stupid. Ditto for some of the TV series.  Every once in a while, I find a true gem, but that's not too often.  

 

This one is good: True Romance, from 1993.  If you haven't seen it, watch it.  

 

I can't seem to post a link that works.   

 

Also good:  Dusk til Dawn, by Tarantino

True Romance is worth watching just for Gary Oldman playing a pimp!

The BBC has just announced The Guest, a new four-part drama that will be filmed in and around Cardiff. Eve Myles (Keeping Faith; Broadchurch) and Gabrielle Creevy (Three Women) will lead the fast-paced thriller, centred on the toxic relationship between successful business owner Fran and her employee, Ria.

First Day on Earth

The new series, about Gareth Southgate's time as manager of the England football team.

 

Dead and Buried

Release date: Autumn 2024 on BBC One Northern Ireland and BBC iPlayer

The four-part thriller, filmed in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland earlier this year.

 

Reunion

Release date: TBC

Filming has now started in Yorkshire on new BBC revenge thriller Reunion, starring Bad Sisters' Anne-Marie Duff. The four-part series marks an important milestone in inclusive storytelling, with the majority of cast and many members of the crew being deaf or using British Sign Language (BSL), the BBC has shared.

 

The Night Manager season 2

Release date: TBC

Fans of the BBC's smash hit 2016 adaptation of John le Carré's The Night Manager will be thrilled to hear that two new seasons are in the pipeline, as confirmed by Deadline.

The new series will pick up eight years after the first season's dramatic conclusion, and filming is set to start later this year. 

 

‘King & Conqueror’ from Sherlock Holmes writer Michael Robert Johnson, is based on the iconic 11th century figures Harold of Wessex and William of Normandy.

 

Miss Austen

Release date: TBC

 

Jane Austen fans, take note. A new four-part drama starring Keeley Hawes and Rose Leslie is coming soon to the BBC. The star-studded series is an adaptation of Gill Hornby's bestseller, Miss Austen.

 

Moonflower Murders

First look images from upcoming drama Moonflower Murders, which is based on Anthony Horowitz's bestselling novel of the same name.

The sequel to 2023's Magpie Murders, the six-part series will star Lesley Manville and Timothy McMullan in their lead roles as book editor turned sleuth Susan Ryeland and acclaimed literary detective Atticus Pünd.

Daddy Issues

Release date: TBCStarring David Morrissey and Sex E
ducation's Aimee Lou Wood, this new BBC series is described as a "classic odd couple comedy about two funny, deeply flawed characters who just happen to be father and daughter".

 

I'm hoping Night Manager Season 2 will work. The original season was the perfect mini series and ended spectacularly well.

 

I always worry when something so great is brought back I hope the story isn't too contrived 

 

Will Roper be back? We all assumed he was going to be killed after that last scene in the paddy wagon

Also watched it last night, wife and myself enjoyed it and think its a pretty good show.

[oxo1947]

The Staff at IMDB pick out what they thought was the best for 2024 --  I'm usually in disagreement with a lot of their scoring, but you my find something on there--that you want to download.

Because you’re a fan of Red Dwarf, Every time I see you posting, reminds me of a Kiwi friend of mine who was a Film goof buff---he would always write to IMDB etc. about how this guy had the watch on his left hand but was on his right when he walked back in the room---ete  etc ..  He was Jewish so he thought Space balls was hilarious because Mel Brooks (also Jewish) replaces the words---"May the force be with” you to “May the Schwartz  be with you” –Schwartz is (was) Jewish for the “N”  word—of course now google have soften it down to explain it just means a very Dark skinned or black person.  

He made up a list for a TV movie magazine once with 15 words that Writers/Directors had added in just to F-*K –with the public I guess---they wouldn’t print it.   Anyway, I saw it- & Red Dwarf was one, with Listers constant- Smeging hell--Smeg this and Smeg that,  about every third sentence….smeg is an abbreviation for smegma—doctors especially just use Smeg .

 

Anyway it was great Series….

Seems like we are in the minority when it comes to streaming.

I have used many in the past ( tinyzone, fmovies, hdtoday, etc ) which all ended up dying after a while, fmovies lasted a few years.

Currently using sflix2.to which also appeared to be dying ( excess buffering ) a few days ago but now has been resuscitated !!

[xylophone]

I watched a movie last night which I thought I might have seen before, but in retrospect I don't think I had (don't forget I've got memory problems after my accident!). 

 

The movie was a Western, called "Hostiles" and starred Rosamund Pike and Christian Bale and it made for a good evening's entertainment and was enjoyable.
