AVFCDAN Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I’m not sure I agree with them phoning it in but something did go badly wrong for that series, it’s weird because even up to 12 the standard was pretty high but they just got it wrong for 13 somehow.

JB Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 It’s awful. More work has gone into Dee’s face and Mac’s body than the script. I’d definitely recommend watching the last scene of the final episode, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_75 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Loving Get Shorty S2, surprised I've not seen it mentioned on here. Also Escape at Dannemora seems decent after watching the first two episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also love the way so many people had such a negative reaction to the ending. Another vote here for the OA. I thought it was great and actually had an ending, instead of 99% of shows which just plan to keep spinning season after season as long as they can. Trying to talk to people who had a negative reaction to the ending is impossible though. It's like trying to talk sense to a Trump supporter.

Because it was hilariously awful And I have bad news for you, they've planned 5 seasons of it There's plenty left open for more seasons though. Those were the parts I actually liked.

theboyangel Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Finally getting chance to catch up with some programs from the year. the final season (4) of The Bridge was typically superb, enjoyed Killing Eve and now enjoying the second season of The Deuce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Just started the 3rd season of Fortitude on Sky. It's not out and out amazing, but it's probably the best of the 'Sky originals' so far, alongside Penny Dreadful. Worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a watch. for some reason i just havent got around to watching most of the sky originals, wanted to watch jamestown, riviera, guerrilla, tin star but havent bothered bulletproof was ok, i think it was an original (or a sky partnership with canal+) i really enjoyed the last panthers amazing how far behind they have been left as a distributor, they seem to chase the big studio exclusive deals rather than putting in the leg work and buying up everything at the festivals like netflix do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I just watched what must be the worst interview recorded and published. Piers Morgan interviews Serial Killers on Netflix. Worth a watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 piers morgans next show could be the 10 best looking women in the world stripping for him and you'd still have to pay me to watch it not sure if he would be 1st up the wall but he'd definitely be a single digit in the queue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These might be harsh words. But to sum it up: he interviews a serial killer and comes across as the asshole of the two. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have a checklist for each kind of drama they want to make and they end up being too contrived and 'paint by numbers'. I dunno, I'm talking rubbish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) what the hell have the BBC done to Watership down? Looks awful, rabbits look more like hares, animation & the cgi in general is absolutely terrible, voice acting is flat and doesn't really appear to be synced quite right and the sound levels seem all over the place. How the f**k have they managed to blow £18 million quid on this? Just show the original rather than this shit.

Aimed at adults, but I'd rather watch the CBeebies Peter Rabbit. Rabbits are brave... rabbits are brave...

mjmooney Posted December 26, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 26, 2018 Well, I quite enjoyed episode 1 of The ABC Murders (John Malkovitch as Hercule Poirot). And not just because one of the scenes was filmed on our allotment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get suspicious about programmes that have a lot of arty farty slow motion in it, like they're doing it so they can stretch it into 3 episodes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
