I stuck it out until the end and don’t know why I did. I hardly remember it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Re Taskmaster - I’m firmly in the ‘Munya’s a nob’ camp. He’s trying too hard and comes across as a little too fake. very good episode though! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that Munya comes across as a bit of an Iain Stirling though I quite like Iain Stirling (despite never watching Love Island!) but he didn’t come off well in Taskmaster but I genuinely think he really wanted to do well and tried too hard to be funny on it.

sne Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 The Midnight Club was a disappointment. It's still very much a Mike Flanagan show but it's a watered down YA Netflix thing that is a couple eps too long and feels more like filler than like a good show. Honestly since it's so long I'll only give it a 5/10. Hopefully The Fall of the House of Usher will be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where I'm at with it but having watched several episodes but I at least want to know what is going on (reckon I could guess most of it though). I wish they'd drop the side stories and just run with the main plot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleksnes Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Watched the two first seasons of Fargo again since it is on a streaminservice i recently got. In my top five Tv series ever. I wouldnt change one minute of those seasons. Everything is perfect. Camerawork,the set,the casting,the actors,pacing... And Lorne Malvo is the best bad guy in any tv show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Bunch of new animated stuff out now. Previously mentioned Pantheon which is great. First episode of Chainsaw Man is also out and it's gory as h*** . Kinda a given for a series about a guy with chainsaws for arms and head who kills devils... Whole season of Exception is also out but not had time to watch that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Bleach anime - thousand year blood war - which will resume the anime's story and bring it to a conclusion in line with the manga, just started too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 On 10/10/2022 at 18:22, Genie said: I also just finished Jeffrey Dahmer. It was good, could have been trimmed down a bit or added a bit more content if they we’re committed to 10 episodes (obviously it only scratched the surface of what went on). I noticed in the subscription service I use there’s a 3 part show “conversations with a killer: The Jeffrey Dahmer tapes” that i’m not sure I can bring myself to watch. Anybody who watched the full Dahmer series and is now thinking of watching the “conversation with a killer” tapes I’d say don’t waste your time. It’s clearly the same information used to make the 10 part drama and covers the same events in the same detail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I'm really enjoying The Empress on Netflix. The leading lady is worth the entrance fee alone. It's also full of political intrigue with some fine acting to carry it all along . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Martin Freeman pulled off that Minnesota accent to great effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I'm 3 episodes into The Watcher on Netflix. It feels even more creepy when you're told it's a true story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Just finished the last episode of The Empress. Loved every minute of it. Has the ability to transport you back to a time and place. Beautifully filmed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 The Problem With Jon Stewart is easily among the best things on TV these days, funny, educational and infuriating all at the same time. But it's not gonna give you any hope that the world is salvageable or that we are heading in the right way so for those who still have hope it might not be for you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
