Finished Zero Hour

Ending far too low key for my liking. Last episode moved at glacial pace.

RDN excellent as always though.

An episode and a half into Adolescence.

Brilliantly made, VERY thought provoking as a parent to two teenage boys.

Amazing performances from everyone involved. Tough subject matter. Highly recommend so far.

And some people claimed that Star Trek TNG didn't have much action:

[Bones]

Just finished Eric.

Shit that got serious quick eh, definitely wasn't what I was expecting but bloody good.

Unbeatable TV.

Dark Winds

Slow burner and the time shifts can be hard to follow, but bloody good.

@Bones Yeah, another good episode.

Did you watch Vice Principals? Had me genuinely laughing hard.

I don't actually think I did, will get on it, Chur!

[Tim]

@Bones IIRC, it's in the 2nd episode that it really kicks in.

Finished Season 4

Keeps getting better, keeps evolving

Gary Oldman is superb

The Mist

Pretty dire really. Way too long and repetitive with too much focus on rows between people rather than, you know, the actual mist and what's in it.

Bailed after 5 episodes

[Mr Fish]

Severance S2 finale released on Friday. A pretty good end to what was an interesting season but one that ultimately couldn't match the same consistency as the first.

I enjoyed it but yeah, some of your criticism is valid and they obviously listened cos it got cancelled after one season

I’ve been struggling with it. I love the idea of the show, but it just feels like they’ve passed it out and failed to make 2 seasons of interesting ciewing

It is clearly clever and some great acting, but a lot of it drags and lumon just gets more and more unbelievable.

I've still enjoyed it but definitely not to the same extent.

There was a very obvious structure to the first season that's really been missing in the second. It's all a bit over the place and it's been hard to figure out what the 'rules' are.

[Frank]

Never really understood it.
I'm too thick.

[Bones]

@Frank yeah I tried, just nothing grabbed me. Slightly mysterious to start but soon lost interest.

A Thousand Blows

Based on some real characters and is about Jamacian brothwrs Hezekiah and Alec, who arrive in London in the 19th century with big dreams but end up fighting in bare knuckle matches to win money, while also getting mixed up with the infamous Elephant female crime gang.

Some great acting all round, lead by Steven Graham who is in great shape as the brutal thug Sugar Goodson.
