Xela Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I've finally got through every episode of Morse, Lewis and Endeavour. Fantastic. Endeavour is really good but they do stretch the believability of the storylines. KGB plots, shootouts in Venice, etc. At least in Morse and Lewis it was usually just a college Don being bumped off because he was up to no good! Morse will always be my favourite because of John Thaw, but all the leads (Shaun Evans, Roger Allam, Kevin Whateley and Laurence Fox) are all great. Kind of sad i've got through them all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Blasted through season 2 of Manhunt. This one about the 96 Atlanta Olympic bomber. Totally missed when this came out earlier in the year. It's an interesting story and a lot of it I didn't know or didn't remember. Solid enough 10 episodes series worth a watch. 7/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah 1 was the Unabomber but I'm not sure if it was the same people who were involved. S1 felt like it had a higher budget from what I remember.

Just not my sort of thing I wasn't sure if I should bother watching Ep3, don't think I'll bother, it didn't feel very Lovecraft-ian. The wife and I have been binge watching Cobra Kai - we're into S2 and I think it has been the booze thats kept me on the sofa watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the sequel to the Unabomber one? Didn't even know a sequel existed. I'll check this out! Edit: Sorry just realised you were asked the same thing above. Cheers!

Yup, same here, had no idea. It's not amazing but I liked it anyway. Lots to the story I had no idea about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) I think the Cormoran Strike novels are great but the actor who plays him on TV irritates me. He makes the whole thing so dull when the character is supposed to have a bit of charisma. Edited September 1, 2020 by sharkyvilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Evans is excellent. Fox is decent enough as an actor but boy is he an insufferable prick as a human being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Diane Morgan’s Mandy on BBC iPlayer has had me in stitches. Each episode is only 15 minutes long but they’re very good with some brilliant cameos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic series, Shame it ended after 3 seasons because nobody watched it first time around. Getting a lot of love on Netflix though and there’s talk of another season. Just started season 3, after happening across it on Netflix, think it’s absolutely brilliant. Makes you wonder how many gems are out there which just didn’t get on bigger networks and/or get the audience it warranted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 On season 3 of Power. It’s ok but nowhere near as good as people made out. I’m continuing to watch to see what’s going to happen but it’s starting to become a bit of chore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
