TV Shows!

Hi all. I can heartily recommend “Couples Therapy” on iPlayer. Surprising, shocking, fulfilling, please give it a couple of episodes. For those of us who are married it may offer insights, it is certainly shocking.

We are crawling through:

The Tourist (BBC)
Cobra Kai
Ozark

Started Mare of Eastown I think but was slow, I’ll have another go from reviews above.

See (Apple TV) first series was ok, can’t grasp season 2 :sleeping:

Watch the first few minutes of the first episode last night. Had to turn it off because the bloke (Mau, I think he was called?) was annoying me so much by being such a massive, self-centred f****** prick.

I’ll go back and watch more of the show, I’m sure, but if there are more people like him, I may have to take it all in small doses :sweat_smile:

Mare is fantastic, I binged it over the Christmas period (~1 episode a day). Thematically it scratched many of the same itches for me as Happy Valley did, while also being different enough in its own way that it’s absolutely its own show.

Should be interesting if they do a season two, given the makers have acknowledged that they won’t be able to ignore the fact that not all cops are good people, given everything that has happened in real life since they made the first season.

He gets worse.

I’m really out of it with Archive 81 :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Watched the second episode. I hate him. I hate him so much. Am glad that most of the episode is filled with other people who are more three-dimensional than him.

Locke and Key is worth a watch on netflix , the squid game was also good im sure they are making a 2nd series of that , if you liked the squid game give alice in borderland a try

Wait until series 2, they found someone even more unlikeable…

Finally finished this, and I still don’t know what’s just been happening :joy:

Umm not specifically for this no. Ozark is for sure, that was amazing.

we have watched a couple of the money heist that has promise

I’ve pretty much finished The Walking Dead, just waiting for the last few episodes of the last season to appear after the mid season break.

Fear the Walking Dead, almost completed. Next up will be World Beyond.

Money heist was also amazing!

Ah those spin offs get so boring, the main walking dead show got boring basically after the prison and more down bill once Negan arrived. I’ve kept up with the main season as I need to know how it ends :sweat_smile:

If you live for swearing then Ozark is the one :joy:

Started Reacher last night and really enjoying it.

Alan Ritchson is a much better Reacher than Cruise. Youth aside (he looks 10 years too young for me) he really feels like the physical emobidment of the character.

TV just makes so much more sense than film too in terms of giving the books more space to breath.

Yep.

Would be interesting to get the opinion of someone who isn’t a fan of the books.

For me it’s a must watch but then I’ve been reading them for 20+ years.
