Just finished watching Sexy Beast last night found it enjoyable, it's about gangsters (fictional) in the 90s in London good storyline and acting. Only 8 episodes too.

Remember that and if my memory is right it was pretty good.

Gave up on Shogun after episode 6, really wanted to like it but found Cosmo Jarvis just so bad …..

I thought it was fine wished it was longer as they had to shoehorn in a lot of timelines and storylines, gave the show closure without destroying it like GoT.

Spot on sir, they did well to put in a whole seasons worth of story into a single film. GoT still depresses me when i think what a maess they made of the tail end of the show.

Rather enjoying the live version of Cowboy Bebop on Netflix. Didn't think I'd like it, but I think its quite a decent adaptation.

Never seen the animated version in any form, but loved the series

If you ever watch the original anime version you would have turned off the live action by episode 3

doesn't do it justice what so ever I stopped as it had ignored the tone and noir aspect, messed up fayes character and completely changed Grin, Unlike the makers of One Piece who honoured the source, Bebops live action tried to improve on the original, where it's flaws was part of its original brilliance.

Yep and think I'll need to rewatch season one again to refresh my mind with the series

Started watching Dark- German tv series on Netflix. Interesting 1st episode. Not sure if it’s going to like fringe or something like stranger things. Reviews were pretty good.

Possibly the worst show I have every seen.
