Unbelievable on Netflix is really good.
Watched the first two episodes of The Mandalorian. Not particularly a Star Wars fan but thought they were quite good. Only half an hour per episode so an easy watch.
Watched the first episode of The Nest, got some potential.
Finished The Stranger. Thought it was a decent enough watch but nowhere near as good as some people I know made it out to be.
Unsure what I'll watch next. Do fancy giving The Mandalorian a watch especially after the above reviews.
I started rewatching Breaking Bad a few days ago. I often wonder if TV shows get better the longer it has been since you watched them and if there is an element of rose tinted glasses.
In the case of BB it definitely isn't the case. If anything I underestimated just how good it is and there are loads of little things I missed first time around that I've picked up this time. Raced through 3 and a half season in 4 days, including a marathon session that saw me sit up until 3am.
We are definitley watching more TV with this enforced lockdown but that is okay as we were getting close to the maximum memory on the box :greengrin
One clear advantage has been that Mrs Mibbes has never watched The Sopranos. I have seen them all, albeit at varying times, some episodes several times, others just the once.
We have started at series one for her and she is absolutely loving it. I am rediscovering just how good it was. Incredibly well-acted television, the family stuff far more than the mob and crime stuff. Many seasons still to come and it feels like a real treat.
Anyone with time to spare, Homicide Life on the streets, spectacularly good.
This thread is 108 pages long and I guess Homicide has been mentioned at least once but I would wholeheartedly agree with you. It is a series that I am happy to go back to from the start. And now the world is in shutdown, and assuming we don’t lose broadband, then I might just do that. As stated in an earlier post, I am enjoying re-running The Sopranos and have just finished season one as Mrs Mibbes never caught it. More than happy to re-visit Baltimore though. Again, Mrs Mibbes hasn’t seen it, loves The Sopranos so far, so I am guessing she will love Homicide.
Currently watching Top Boy on Netflix up to episode 8 and enjoying it.
Ozark S3 is now on Netflix.
Yeah it’s phenomenal, I am jealous of my parents who have just started and have the whole thing to get through. Plus El Camino and BCS.
On the details point, one of my favourite wee Easter eggs is for season 2. You have the pink bear that keeps appearing in the episode opening, eventually becoming clear as linked to the plane crash..... The bear appears in these flash forwards in 4 episodes. If you take those episode titles in sequence they read 737 DOWN OVER ABQ. Brilliant stuff!
I totally missed it at the time but we sat and watched both seasons of Fleabag today. I was a bit sceptical about it but I thought it was outstanding TV. It's classic black humour and I really enjoyed it.
Re Better Call Saul. I'd definitely rank it right up there with Breaking Bad. It doesn't treat the viewer like an idiot and, rewatching BB, it gives so much more depth to so many characters.
Batwoman started on E4 last night for those that miss their Gotham fix , Really enjoyed it , Dougray Scott the Hibby in it tae
Can't remember if I mentioned it previously, War of the Worlds on Fox has been good so far.
i've also joined the long list of critics of the joker film, kept watching hoping it would become somehow interesting, i'l pay attention in future when a film/show is slated before i start thinking of watching
but anyone suffering from insomnia, watch it, it could be the cure you're looking for
Started watching ‘shooter’ today, really liking it so far
