chappy Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Thought the last episode of BCS was excellent. Spoiler The scene where Mike shoots Werner in particular. also the rooftop scene between Jimmy and Kim was very well done, that may have been ep9, just watched both back to back 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going through a weird time in my life which has made me a bit sensitive around family stuff at the moment which doesn’t help but **** me the last 15 minutes or so had me blubbering my eyes out. Drained. Brilliant little series overall. Finished THOHH. Absolutely loved it! Right up my ally. For it's genre I'd say it was pretty close to a 10/10. Carla Gugino is excellent. Also agree on the ending, same here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 went to watch episode 10 of ballers only to find out last weeks episode was the last one this season, makes it even more disappointing the end of season 3 episode 5 man in the high castle wow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 The second season of The Deuce is the best thing on TV at the moment. Even James Franco playing twins can't spoil it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only bits keeping me intetested in the gus/Mexican storyline. The thing is as we all know it's a prequel we all know how it's going to end so they need to make Jimmys storylines better. For me it's ok but nowhere near as good as breaking bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's ok but nowhere near as good as breaking bad I'm not sure I'd say it's a big flop, though I probably give it a bit more benefit of the doubt as it's a Breaking Bad spin off, if that makes sense. It's perfectly fine but waiting a year for 10 episodes, I'd expect a bit more. There have been some great moments but I thought the story could have progressed a bit more by now.

villa4europe Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 bake off has been brilliant this year, at times really hard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted October 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 17, 2018 Finished the Haunting series on Netflix. I really liked it. Best horror series ever made imo, though there haven't been a lot. American Horror Story is the only other one I can think of and it is absolute garbage. Some of the camera work in THOHH is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(spoiler for this week) Spoiler They definitely got rid of the wrong person this week. I'm glad they did, because Rahul is clearly the best baker there. But if you're going on the current week's performance then he was comfortably the worst. I get that they take previous weeks into consideration at times, but that was a bit too blatant for me. I think he'll end up winning 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he'll end up winning couldn't agree more Spoiler not screaming fix from the rooftops but it definitely felt like them papering over a potential winner having a bad week by kicking off someone who realistically was never winning instead, that said i thought the gay bloke who went a couple of weeks back was also a potential winner who got booted off after a nightmare week its mad how at work (i work on a building site) so many people are talking about it, i went on holiday* and missed 2 episodes and within 10 minutes on my first day back got asked if i had caught up with it yet, the move to channel 4 might have seen the viewing figures dip again but its popularity seems as high as ever to me, i'm currently watching the old series too on netflix with my partner who hadn't seen them, the show has definitely got better, i can see why people don't like noel fielding but the actual baking on the show and the challenges are a lot better * went to morocco, ended up watching french tv and of course french bake off, its a lot more casual, a lot more messing about and getting to know the contestants, the quality on show is nowhere near what our lot can do, they only seemed to do 2 things per episode too, they fill the rest of the time showing more of the contestants who all live in a big house together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do say they take previous weeks into account. But he definitely lost the week. if that had been week 1 he'd have gone no question. I hated that gay bloke. Not for being gay obviously! But he was so **** cocky and arrogant, he drove me mad. he'd had a couple of wobbles before his really bad week though. I wanted him to go since day 1 so I noticed when he was in the running to be kicked off! Whereas Rahul has been almost flawless every week. It's a great show. People will turn their nose up because it's cakes and baking and it's meant to be for old ladies. But it's better than Masterchef or The Apprentice or any of those similar formats. I didn't watch much of it when it was on the BBC but I think Noel and Sandi are better than the previous two. And that's from somebody who despised Noel Fielding until Bakeoff. I don't care for any of his comedy stuff. Oh and there's a great clip of the french bakeoff (I think it's the french one) where their technical challenge is a jaffa cake and none of them have a clue what it is Edited October 18, 2018 by Stevo985 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Finished American Vandal season 2 just now. At its heart it's an enjoyable whodunnit hidden behind a load pranks involving shit, and actually a pretty decent commentary on the use of social media amongst the young'uns. 8/10 WB.

AJ Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I am a bit late to the party, but I started watching The Inbetweeners, and I powered through the 3 seasons as it had me hooked. Brilliant, and absolutely hilarious! The last ep where they go camping nearly killed me. I read somewhere that the Americans made a version of it. Is it shit like everything else they get their hands on? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
