[b]Noir[/b] has well and truly returned in "I Know Who You Are", a Spanish thriller full to the brim with twists and turns as well as shocking revelations. Highly recommended. Saturdays, BBC4 at 9.00 pm but, be warned, it's lengthy.
[b]Catch up[/b] "Broken", a 6 part series written by Jimmy McGovern. A superb and powerful performance by Sean Bean did justice to the no holds barred storyline. This series really put a lump in my throat and more than once, very emotional stuff. Available on i-player.
[i]"I Know Who You Are"[/i]
Yep, good stuff.
Can't believe I missed "Top of the Lake" first time around. It's utterly brilliant. Elisabeth Moss is sooo good.
Just finished Belgian one, 'Public Enemy' which was good. Didn't go on too long before it concluded which was a bonus.
+1 for Top of the Lake. Just watched the 1st series, captivating, disturbing and stunning. Good stuff.
Catching up on SS-GB at the moment.
Thanks for the heads-up on "I Know Who You Are", will give that a whirl. Will check out Top of The Lake too
was Public enemy on BBC?
[i]Public enemy on BBC?[/i]
Sky Atlantic, iirc
ok ta. Don't have council telly, only freeview
Broken was brilliant!
We're into the 3rd series of Bloodline on Netflix, which after a lacklustre 2nd series (the 1st series was superb) is bang back on form!
It's like someone had a word with the scriptwriters and said 'yeah, the moody, brooding shit is all fine, but do you fancy getting back to plotting and scheming, drug dealing, and killing people, please?"
Handmaids tale
Love Island
Game Of Thrones
Black Sails
Orange is the New Black
Man in the High Castle
Vikings
Car SOS
Counting Cars
Wheeler Dealers
Gardeners World.
That about sums up my interest in TV/On demand
The Handmaid's Tale
Fargo s3
American Gods
Just finished Last Man on Earth
Hannibal.
Game of Thrones.
House of Cards.
Ballers.
[i]Last Man on Earth[/i]
How annoying did that get!? Still needed a concluding series.
If you liked the humour of it there's a comedy (in inverted commas) called [b]"Baskets[/b]" (FX channel) about a bloke who wants to be a clown... yeah... Anyway it's that same sort of low-beat, downtrodden comedy. I managed 3 episodes before I couldn't cope anymore!
GoT, clearly
Just finished The Loch
Dark Matter, but its not much good any more.
edit:
Hannibal
was excellent - thoroughly disappointed it got canned after s3.
Last Man on EarthHow annoying did that get!? Still needed a concluding series.
I could kind of take it or leave it towards the end, but the episodes were only about 20 mins long, so it wasn't much of a chore to see it though.
Recently started on House of Cards.
Nothing on regular telly though.
Ozark on Netflix
Game of Thrones
Handmaid's Tail
The Americans on Amazon Prime
+1 on the Handmaids Tale.
Handmaid's Tail
Sexist. 😛
The weather forecast.
The Keepers on Netflix. Horrifying documentary that we ended up binge watching which I have never done before.
Just started Ozark
Really enjoyed the Americans - but did not stay up to date, so have to catch up.
Currently watching Designated Survivor. Not the most complicated television, but pretty watchable.
Just finished American Gothic (late to the party) which was a great show,
Currently... Animal Kingdom, Preacher (s2 far better than s1 imo), American Gods although not massively enjoying. Oh, and 'Teachers' on All4 as the mrs hadn't seen it.
Awaiting the santa clarita diet series 2 as that was amazing
Just finished - 13 Reasons Why, good watch.
Just starting - Stranger things, seems ok but the missus isn't a sci-fi fan so not sure that will last.
The only good thing on TV at mo
Handmaids Tale
Just GoT really, although I'd like to catch-up on SS/GB – the book is fantastic.
Been using netflix a lot recently, Suits and Archer on the train.
Handmaids tale is the only thing on regular TV I think at the moment.
Loads but just onto S2 of Into the Badlands which was a bit of a surprise find. Nothing ground breaking but a decent post apocalyptic, martial arts mashup.
Top of the Lake (just started)
New Archer eps
looking forwards to Rick & Morty series 3
Master of None
Just finished Grace and Frankie, and latest Silicon Valley
Got stuck halfway through the latest House of Cards - lost the love.
basically there are some I watch with my partner, and some with my son - they have rather different tastes.
Madmen on netflix for me, just started series 2.
Yeah i know i'm many years late to the party......
Bosch is also a very good series which is on netflix or amazon.
the News.
Just finished American Gods. Liked a lot. Haven't read the book so no baggage. Really like the visuals and feel of it. Can't think of anything else I've seen quite like it.
Halfway through Preacher series 1. Loving it so far (so if series 2 is better...).
Dark Matter .pants but semi-enjoyable
Killjoys. Less pants, more enjoyable
Shooter on Netflix
Colony
The Last Kingdom
Vikings - where is it these days?
Z Nation - like Walking Dead but tongue in cheek and less predictable
Travelers
The Expanse
Jessica Jones
Gave up on Sense8 & The OA
Anybody been following "Sex, Drugs & Murder" on the Beeb ? Only on once a month now but on iPlayer. Finding it scarily fascinating.
Love Island
Not Naked Attraction then?
Just finished American Gothic (late to the party) which was a great show,
American Gothic is tremendous, but annoyingly aired out of order and this transferred to the DVD. They'd kill someone off, then they'd be back in the show two episodes later. It's worth Googling the correct running order.
Just starting - Stranger things, seems ok but the missus isn't a sci-fi fan so not sure that will last.
Dude, it's brilliant and it's like eight episodes. It's hardly a massive investment / huge inconvenience to tolerate when you're not into it.
Fargo
Fargo ...
Otherwise Dad's Army.
[i]Dad's Army[/i]
Preferred Citizen Smith myself
Just caught the "Detectorists" on BBC2, Becky's laugh makes me sigh and go "Mmmmmm..........." 😉
I might have to watch it from the start, I've only watched it the once but i figure it's one of those tv series that can take a repeat viewing.
We're into the 3rd series of Bloodline on Netflix, which after a lacklustre 2nd series (the 1st series was superb) is bang back on form!
Now that's interesting I'd written it off after the poor reviews. The first season remains as one of my favourite Netflix originals.
got
Just finished season 4 of House of Cards, most excellent.
Never seen GOT.
Have just finished watching the first and last season of Blacklist - Redemption, it s spin off from The Blacklist in which James Spader is a superstar, season 5 is coming next year which I think will be the last one.
Also just finished watching the last season of Gamorrah, ready for when the new season starting in November. Can't believe season one aired nearly 5 years ago!
Totally forgot I'd got the other half in to Boardwalk Empire before I came back out the Singapore. I think it's brilliant, I love Steve Buscemi.
Just watching Season One of The Leftovers
just finished Season One of Preacher
both very good
Bit bored with the 3rd series of bloodline, only about halfway through.
Just started Ozark. 2 episodes in and really enjoying it.
Netflix or whoever need to hurry up with Spotless season 2.
