TV Series

The HBO series ‘Task’.

Three episodes in and it’s shaping up to be extraordinary. Fans of ‘The Wire’ and ‘True Detective’ take note. So far it compares favourably to these shows.
 
I have just binged a walter presents called bardot the story of brigette bardot ,it is based on her real story so all the characters are named right and events are her story, i googled her this morning and she is 90 yrs old, estranged from her only child that she never wanted to have, she was so beautiful not so much now but who is at 90 lol

Finished Black Rabbit and so so. Jude Law very good in it and though it had potential, all felt a bit too predictable. Worth watching but to pass the time, but didn’t push any boundaries at all.

Thought it was very good, the last episode almost blew it but turned it round for me.
 
Started “The Iris Affair” this week. I think I’ve watched 5 episodes, there is 8 in total.

I like it. It’s not to be taken too seriously but it’s good
 
Not sure if mentioned by anyone else, but have been watching The Crash Detectives on iPlayer.
It’s an honest but grim watch & how the cause of each crash is determined is amazing.
There are a couple of things that have really shocked me.
1-It’s astonishing the amount of fatal crashes caused due to drink and/or drug driving. Why the hell do people think it’s ok to drink & drive or take drugs & drive?
2- The sentencing for drivers found guilty of truly horrific driving offences is a joke.
 
Hightown... it's fucking awesome. Airs on Netflix.

To be honest I was really put off by the first episode as it unwound - a lesbian main character driven to participate in sexual activity in east coast USA. But I persisted... thankfully.

Look - if you're a prude and cannot understand genetic-driven choices for sexuality - that depart from the norm - than this series is not for you.

On the other hand, this series is not at all about sexual norms.

All characters are multi-dimensional and are fully developed; the acting is fantastic; and the story line is both plasible and full of twists.

9.5/10... watch this series on Netflix. It's awesome. But give the first episode maybe 30 or so minute to convince you... b/c I nearly dropped this series, mistakenly, after watching 10 minutes or so... give it a chance... watch the first episode in its entirety.
 
Lazarus, I liked it though the last scene was predictable and all filmed in Manchester by the look of it especially around King Street, 6/10
