Hard to choose between yellowstone, depth q or Mobland next
Department Q was great and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong.
That’s my review.
Just watched all of Breeders starring Martin Freeman a lesson in how not to be a Dad highlighting the stresses and strains on relationships that bringing up a young family brings
As my four year old grand daughter said to me after the birth of her sister “ It’s not easy bringing up two you know “ 😳
Each episode lasts approx 25 minutes

Finished Black Snow season 1 last night it was OK , Not in my top 50 things i have watched , Just OK imo
I binge watched Dep Q I kind of enjoyed it but can't decide if it was the acting or just some of the writing but it just felt a bit clunky. Similar to The Rig.

Wasn't as keen on this series of Race Across the World. I grew to like them all so didn't mind who won but I think the biggest problem was India being so cheap none of them had any budget worries or didn't need to work that much.
Not sure where the next one could be. All over Scandinavia? Australia?
Scenery in China and India was fantasticQuote:

Don’t think they are losing sleep over a trade deal with Trump
They done China last series. Not a fan of it this year. Couldn't take to any of the teams and found it but boring compared to previous seasons. I also had it in my head they were starting in London and doing Europe for some reason.
Didn’t enjoy this series as much as previous. They seemed to devote more of the program to contestants discussing their personal issues and past histories, don’t remember so much of that previously. Would much rather seen more of the countries and locals. The scenery was spectacular though.
That was the first ever season was it not?Quote:

I'm with Steve above - I really enjoyed Dept Q and I'm looking forward to series 2.
The criticisms are valid in many ways but it has enough grit and charm to overcome the 'cliches'.
Goode really grew on me throughout the series too.
First full new series I've managed to pull myself through in a while and I'm glad I did.
Quite enjoying series 2 of The Gold on the iPlayer.
Yeah saw it advertised and realised I had never watched the first series so currently watching the first series, it’s very good.Quote:

The other thing I really didn’t like about it was the clumsy shoe horning of plot points. Without giving any spoilers away, one example is the dad telling the police, randomly, about the necklace that was about to become significant to the story. It was so out of keeping with the scene, that it annoyed me 😂.
And Kelly McDonald’s character isn’t going near her patient in a personal capacity in a million years, that whole plot line was ludicrous.
I couldn’t watch the Rig, managed two episodes and it was awful.Quote:
