TV Series

She falls under the strang woman who puppets people. And she feels extremely tokenist as a character.

The characters are very extreme, like they think the audience is stupid. The outsider brother for example wasnt just an incompetent coward, he was the most incompetent, the most cowardly, that they could have possibly made him.
Gotcha !
 
Started Smoke last night. It’s based on a podcast called ‘fire bug’. I’d never heard of the pod nevermind listened to it but the series has started well enough
 
Having really enjoyed Bosch in its different incarnations I was looking forward to Ballard.
Sadly I have given up on it.
It’s as dull as ditchwater to me.
 
4th and last series of Star Trek Enterprise maybe 12 episodes left to go. After that I will boldly have to go and find a new TV series to fill in the hours at night.

Or just talk and play cards with the wife, god I need to start looking pronto.
God, are you still watching that shite ?

You fucking Trekkie :)
 
Untamed 6 part series filmed in Yosemite park murder mystery beautiful scenery well worth a watch solid 7.5
Halfway through and i'm enjoying it.

First episode I thought his new assistant would be irritating but she's come into her own.

Nice to see Eric Bana
 
Finished latest Race Across The World which I love and also just finished something that surprised me. The Pilgrimage. I only started watching it as first season had episodes around Giant's Causeway which is near where I grew up. Some amazing scenery throughout all of the seasons
Race across the World is very enjoyable. Same people (Studio Lambert) who make Traitors.
On a different note, just finished the six episodes of Earths Greatest Rivers. Fantastic series with the most amazing capture of nature.

Not a series but a one off drama by jimmy McGovern called unforgivable on bbc1 last night really powerful story on child abuse and the effects on the family. Brilliant powerful and thought provoking.
 
Have watched Furio Series 1 and half way through Series 2. Its a Norwegian series based on their equivalent of MI5 counteracting the threats from Russia/the far right and various others that seek to undermine western democracy. It sounds a bit dry but its pretty pacy, set against the current political landscape of Putin/Trump/Victor Orban/Shady right wing networks/EU politics/social media manipulation. Its not perfect but the pace of the story telling and the committed performances keep it bowling along nicely plus plenty of lovely filming of Norway/Berlin/Budapest. Certainly worth a watch. Subtitled but some of the dialogue is in English. Series 1 was on Amazon, Series 2 on BBC Iplayer.

Can’t find this anywhere?
 
Just finished Dept Q...loved it.
Can keep that going for a long while as it's like a UK version of True Detective.
Each season, different case

Still Game on BBC I Player if you want a late night laugh, 9 series and a few specials, 2001 - 2016, superb. On the Skirt wearing jock theme, Two Doors Down is also brilliant.
