"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?"

"I have to disagree, Ted. I found it underwhelming, with more plot holes than the pot holes in our disintegrating roads. It was, IMO, a two hour film stretched into a five hour series. I won't say much more as I don't want to spoil it for others. I did think that the burn sided one put in an exceptional performance though."

2 episodes into The Terminal List on Amazon Prime. About a navy seal and the subsequent fall out after a blown mission. Very good.

"Gave Black Bird a start, only one episode in but to me just seems like average, run of the mill stuff, like the vast majority of shows out there? If I'm going to commit hours watching something it needs to be a lot better than just alright, will give the second episode a go to see if it gets any better. Really enjoying BCS, just 2 episodes left."

"Another vote for Black Bird which really reminded me of the first series of Mind Hunter, if you like that kind of thing."

"jfk 2:10 Sat Jul 16 I'm going to take your recommendation of Percy Dalton's recommendation, and give it a go. The trailers look very good. I've also found a free stream link, if anyone doesn't fancy making Apple any richer."

"The Boys - Amazon Prime people with 'superpowers' marketed as superheroes by a corrupt company for profit - but most of the superheroes have deep character flaws. The Boys are a group of people trying to take them down for various reasons. lots of money spent on special effects, very sweary and gory...worth a watch"

Finished the final season of Peaky Blinders. Has it gone downhill? Yep. Is it still better than a lot of stuff on TV? Yep. Film due out in 2024.

"Finished 1883. Though I enjoyed it to some extent, I did find it rather ponderous and over poetic. I far preferred Yellowstone."

Amputee Actor 11:47 Sun Jul 10 Many people who have binged have said the same thing. It was different for us who had to wait 2 years for THAT final season. The worst for me was the love scene between Arya and Gendry

"OK, it's a fair comment about the length of investment. But overall I was pleased with how it ended for everybody. The only character I disliked (actually it was more of loathing) was Ygritte. Terrible actress."

Amputee Actor 11:47 Ah but don’t forget you had had your expectations sufficiently lowered. Also you hadn’t been invested in the show for several years like a lot of viewers. The disappointment is always far less in those circumstances. In truth it turned shit from the moment they ran out of source material. There’s a noticeable drop in storytelling from the moment the books end.

It either rushed or ruined every character arc in it. Completely fluffed the landing.

"I finally got round to watching Game of Thrones, which I binged on over the last couple of weeks and finished last night. Aware of the wailing, teeth-gnashing and general hullabaloo around its last series and ending, I braced myself for crushing disappointment. Instead, I loved it. What on earth were you ninnies moaning about?"

Black Bird first two episodes have been superb. Ray Liotta's last acting role. Available on Apple TV and of course Cinema HD and Kodi.
