TV Series

Watched Then You Run yesterday. Enough going on to keep me engaged throughout.

Started Ted Lasso last night. Only a few episodes in but I really like him
 
Started watching Dr. Death. I thought each episode was going to be a different story but that’s not the case.
Not sure I can be bothered with a 13 episode American series. They usually take 22 episodes to do what the Brit’s do in 6
It is the true story of a butcher surgeon and how he finally was brought to justice, excellent casting in all roles
 
Full Monty on Disney. I watched it all just to see if the next episode was worse than the previous one.

It got exponentially worse.
 
About 7 episodes in on ‘5 days at Memorial’, about the aftermath of ‘Hurricane Katrina’ at the hospital, didn’t think I’d like it, and possibly does take a few episodes to get into the real nitty gritty of what transpired I suppose.

BUT ! it’s been brilliant, appalling how those people in ‘New Orleans’ were just left to fend for themselves in general, but that’s just the start, it really does present some real ethical and moral dilemma’s for you, so many questions, I don’t think you could NOT ask yourself what you would have done in those circumstances, incredibly difficult and that’s before you factor in the mental and physical state of those people having to make the decisions.

It’s a great watch, but get that feeling “shit gone roll downhill” sadly.

I watched the original film again last night, an absolute belter that has stood the test of time......as for the Disney series, it is indeed completely bobbins, painful to watch.
 
Need something new to watch. I think I have watched everything worth seeing.
Started into my back up stuff last night and decided it all looked crap.
Endeavour, Lucky Hank, Madam Secretary, The Company you keep, The Patient, Joe Pickett.
Edit. Just saw that The Crowded Room has finished. That's next on the list.
 
I just finished that, thought it was brilliant. Tom Holland is very good.

Do you want me to tell you what happens ?

Silo is next on the list, anyone seen that ?
Nice. Looking forward to crowded room.

I lost interest in silo half way through episode two. I gave 3 a shot and fell asleep. Just yesterday put the final episode on and skipped right to the end.
 
Watched quarterback. Didnt understand anything about American football and still a bit of a novice but that role ain’t easy remembering all the plays.
 
I wouldn’t have seen him then mate (unless he does other stuff).

Well, if you get chance, I'd like to see your review as you have a clean slate.

Me? I've seen a LOT of his work on TV and film, so my review of this show is mirrored against those works.

Maybe it's not fair or maybe it is. Either way, I feel I give actors a chance as a rule and don't let past work overtly persuade me unless they're 'limited' in what they show on a consistent basis.
