5 episodes into Blue Lights season 2, first season was much better.
I watched D-Day: The Unheard Tapes on BBC2 last night.
It is simply brilliant. In an age when WWII is often weaponised for political gain it was a poignant reminder of what a generation of young men went through.
One of those shows that serves as a reminder that when the BBC gets it right they are hard to beat.
Ooft. I persevered with The Pacific until episode 3, despite the average reviews, as i loved Band ofBrothers. My god it’s terrible. I thought the criticism was generous, to be honest.
Band of brothers is my favourite show of all time, I watch it once a year, I watched the Pacific when it first came out and thought it was decent, I've since tried to rewatch it on numerous occasions and stop two episodes in every time, just can't get into it at all now
I thought the Pacific was really slow to begin with and nothing compared to BoB, but having watched it through a few times I think it's fantastic.
It really captures the brutality of the Pacific war in a way that - IMO - BoB didn't quite capture with the European theatre. I know theres horrific injuries depicted in BoB, but it felt a bit softer than Saving Private Ryan and the Pacific.
And the theme music man, gives me chills every time I hear it.
I cant say i noticed, titles aren’t important to me. I thought all the key stuff was absolutely rotten to the point where episode 3 held no interest at all. Persevering with shows i just dont like the first time never seems to work for me, i was bullied into attempting Game of Thrones three times, despite thinking i should like it, its just not for me.
Think Band of Brothers set the bar too high for anything to follow. Still think The Pacific is very good myself having watched it again earlier this year, and really enjoyed Masters of the Air.
Just finished the last episode of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, brilliant but, not an easy watch.
The new Kevin Bridges is on Netflix, it’s fantastic.
Anyone watched Hijack? The wife and I binged it over the weekend
Maybe not rush to stick it on if you're flying anytime soon but it's a very good watch. Pretty intense!
Starring idris Elba and Rod from The Football Factory
Criminal Minds now into its 17th season, continues to be an enjoyable watch.
