Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much.
Breaking Bad, Homeland done
Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?

Watched the first episode of the new Ted Lasso, same irritating shite, but midly amusing that 'West Ham' are in it.

did have a problem with pacing, wasnt a great series overall but can't see how you can knock the girl, I thought she was a fantastic actress, impressive in GoT too considering her age

Just watched Daisy Jones and The Six on Amazon. Its a fictional story about a pop rock band in the 70s from a book of the same name based loosely on Fleetwood Mac. Its really about a band with men and women in it, their off camera relationships, drugs, sex and rock and roll. I liked it as it did manage to get a glimpse at the lives of such people outside their music making but also made the development from beginings to hits and how that might look like.
I doubt it would be to everyone’s taste but if it sounds interesting to you give it a go.

Anyone who calls a console "a machine" plays with consoles. Not sure what parents let their "kiddies" play games like The Last of Us. Is this thread about a TV show or men trying to prove they don't play games consoles. 🤔 For me the last of us and all zombie shows are not really my bag. Below Deck is a bit of me at the moment 😂😂

If you fancy an LSD trip without taking LSD, try Agent Elvis. Incredible cast for a cartoon and very funny.

Being watching The Law According to Lidia Poët on Netflix. Nice fun but mainly to see the incredibly beautiful Matilda de Angelis from The Undoing again. And yes she does get her fantastic norks out again

Agreed Jaan, the second games story was absolutely dogshit and I didn't like what it forced you to control halfway through.
Picard is the best thing on tele at the moment. Love it so much.

The last of us was good because of the production levels of any HBO series, but not as good as the game.
As said, the infected were barely shown as a threat for the most part, and it became more about the struggles between those not infected.
Enjoyable but overhyped. Hopefully they balance it out better in the second season as the second games storyline was poor.

The last series of Snowfall is out. Probably gone a couple of series too long but still watchable.

Watched the last of us last night... thoroughly enjoyed as did most of the episodes... never played the game ... as I have kissed a girl... so have nothing to judge it against but anyway thought it was excellent.
Percy… the Ken Burns one?? Yes it’s very good… if you like that he done an earlier one on the American Civil War which was just as good… both push very close the World at War as best in depth historical docs for me.

Scum. While people are happy to pay for it. Disney are more than happy to churn it out. Only when the money gets tight. The shit get's real.!

Just watched the latest episode of The Mandalorian
Good to see him come unstuck and get saved time and again by a women.
Disney really do hate men. But instead of writing strong female character series, would rather run down ones about men.

I guess if you'd spent most of your life flicking buttons on a playstation and wanking off about how good the games are then I guess you might be disappointed in the Last of us.
Thankfully, never been remotely interested kiddie games on these machines, so the series actually worked very well for me and the strength of the characters was developed and acted equally well. A bit slow in places but I like that as it give the series room to breathe. Also, each episode didn't feel like I'd just reached another level of the game and it being all about the flower power zombies all the time.
All in all I reckon it was very good and worthy of another season. (just don't let it go on beyond its sell by date like the Walking Dead)

Well the finale of The Last Of Us didn’t disappoint. It was just as fucking shit as all the rest of it, barring episode 3 and most of episode 1.
Joel’s character assassination ran so deep they couldn’t even bear to make him not look and act like a weird, stunted cunt and frankly quite the villain in the hospital bit. None of the superb ambiguity of the game. I guess that’s all missing anyway from the emotion of the viewer seen as they didn’t bother trying to tell the story between them faithfully at all. They even subtlely altered the giraffe bit to make him look like a goon. Would it really have hurt to have just had THAT bit play out authentically?
What an absolute disappointment all round and subversion of a fabulous game and story.
And Feed Me Chicken- spot on. She’s shit. Not sure if it was the actress or the writing or a combo that made Ellie so unlikeable.
