Still got to get round to watching Gomorrah.

Still got to get round to watching Gomorrah.

It's excellent from the start.

 

[Pablowolf]

Am watching that as well, mainly because it's funnier than most comedy programmes

Just finished the final episode as they were released on Hulu months ago. Also, season 2 is confirmed, which is good.

Watching The Great and really enjoying it. Elle Fanning has a pretty flawless English accent.

Watched the first couple last night, very good

 

[Pablowolf]

The torture episode is comedy gold!

 

[Boozad]

It's excellent from the start.

Heard loads of good reviews but it's just one of those I never get round to. I'll do it when I've finished Deadwind.

Just finished Informer on Netflix.

Gritty 6 part drama about a young Pakistani guy who gets manipulated into becoming a Counter-terrorism informant.
Really well written and full of tension.

Solid performances from Paddy Considine and Bel Powley, and the rest of the cast too.

Pennyworth on Prime STARZ worth a punt for you DC freaks. Worth watching for Paloma Faith's character alone.

Mom and missus just finished the last Breaking Bad episode. My Mom's take on the whole is "That Skyler is a miserable bitch".

 

[lemonjelly]

finished the queens gambit this week. I enjoyed that.
In continued desperate attempts to catch up culturally with the rest of the nation, considering starting watching breaking bad next...

Just watched the first episode. Good start!

 

[The Weasel]

I think, in the end, I preferred Better Call Saul but it took about 3 seasons before I realised that

 

[The Bear]

I watched the first episode of BCS and ditched it. Didn't really like his character in BB and didn't get anything out of that first episode.

 

[The Weasel]

Yeah it doesn't start great but boy does it get better and better. A bit like the Wire in that respect.

 

[Pablowolf]

Has anyone watched Call My Agent!, the French comedy drama that's getting rave reviews?

 

[leedswolf]

The Investigation on BBC iplayer was pretty good.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Watched It's A Sin this weekend - about the beginning of the AIDS epidemic in London the the Eighties.

Great soundtrack (obviously) but really well written and acted by all involved - would recommend.
