Really enjoyed Archive 81 :aok:
Binge watched the last season of Gomorrah.
Been superb every season certainly up there as one of my favourites.
I’m rewatching it for the 3rd time, on série 3. Maybe it’s all the misery that’s going on in the real world but it’s almost too dark for me at the moment.Quote:

Another Apple offering is Acapulco. Not normally a comedy fan but again really enjoyed this and laughed out loud throughout. The singers in the pool area that make cameo appearances most episodes are genius [emoji1787]
I'm going to throw Wolf Like Me into the mix, Australian comedy about 2 people, both widowed, and the baggage they bring to a relationship.
Peaky Blinders is boring me. Episode 2 and im hoping mrs Bollah agrees to give up on it. The Oswald Mosley stuff is just silly.
I liked episode 1 but found last night a lot slower and strange (not one I’d be looking to revisit). I said to my missus that the scene where him and Arthur started paggering folk on the sly at the fascist rally, and then Aida turned up during the scrap and Tommy said “I’ve got business to do” or something was like a computer game with how quickly it happened and the cliche line and just complete bizarreness of it all!… it was good to see Arthur back in action mind you 😁 even though he couldn’t stand-up 2 mins prior due to being doped.Quote:

You can see why this is the last series though.
It was the ‘blackshirt pager’ scene which bothered me too, did they just write that in to show Tommy and Arthur were still close? Seemed random and unnecessary.Quote:

Yep. We've got his book as well.Quote:

Thinking Gomorrah to binge
Only 6 episodes. Let's just say, the woman has issues every month and leave it at that. 😉Quote:

Tell me your secrets on Alibi has been decent so far. Really like Lily Rabe after her American Horror Story performances.
Finished that now as well.Quote:

Other than that it was OK but by the end was kind of glad it was done and ultimately the story didn’t actually add up to that much.
Not sure I’d ever recommend it to anyone and as above the best I can say is that it was OK.

Channel 4’s Jeremy Kyle: Death on Daytime is stripped across two-parts from Sunday (13 March), documenting the lead up to and impact of the axing of the popular talk show in 2019 following the suicide of participant Steve Dymond.
In the doc, four whistleblowers (portrayed by actors) reveal the pressures put on them by management to secure guests for the ITV daytime show, with one stating that it was common to work up to 15-hour days in order to secure guests for an episode

enjoyed this. I’ve read a couple of the books and the guy does him really well.
Is the new version ofThe Ipcress File any good?
Didn’t find tonight much better. I’ll watch it to the end but I think it’ll be through blind loyalty as loved the earlier series so much rather than actually really enjoying it.Quote:

Also wonder if they’re trying too hard (and failing) to tug on emotions now rather than sticking with the style and action.
Just really not feeling it this season at all.
I've only watched ep1 so far but, thought it was good.Quote:

If it's anything like the previous episodes it will be well nang, if you know what I mean blud.
Yeah maybe, and I could live with that if it didn’t seem so sh**. I feel like they could have even killed them all off this series and still made it decent. This season makes the Russian series 3 seem brilliant!Quote:
