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. Anyone watched the cyberpunk 2077 series on Netflix? If so is it any good? I kind of want to go back to that world after finishing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fwiw Exception that I mention in the post you quoted is kinda boring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sort of hoping for a Transmet adaptation biproxy. I'll check out Pantheon, though so thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 On the plane back from holiday I watched the first episode of Chucky, the child's play TV series. Chucky is still Chucky to a degree. It stunk though, I wasn't sure what it wanted to be. It was clunky, badly acted and perhaps gave Chucky a heart when the wee fella is a serial killer. It had other issues too but not something I will return to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panto_Villan Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 It gets talked about in the Star Wars thread but I’m going to put a general recommendation for Andor from Disney+ in here. It’s really well done, worth watching for anyone with a passing interest in sci-fi. It’s much more of a character driven drama than any of the other Star Wars show to date (although the action is good too). I’m probably enjoying it more than The Expanse, which I did like too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. The podcast they do is also brilliant, btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The Big Bang Theory. I've never watched it properly so when the wife put it on yesterday we watched about 25 or so episodes. It's generally quite funny and well written, but I'm yet to see a single episode where at some point Kaley Cuoco is not displaying her cleavage.

Musn't grumble First 2-3 seasons were excellent then it became far too much like a friends spin off for my liking and i dipped out around series 4 i think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard bad things about the ending though so I'm braced for disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Just a supposition on my part. Smells to me like one of those franchises where each series has a different cast. The only consistent is the house. There is a conclusion in this series. Whether you find it a satisfactory conclusion, remains to be seen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 'The Bear' on Disney+ was fantastic. Only 8 half hour episodes so not a huge commitment but they've been greenlighted for a second season. Set in a Chicago restaurant and really captures the chaos and energy of a commercial kitchen. Really recommend it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
