      Saw the first episode of Patrick Melrose last night. Disturbing, funny and very sad all at the same time. Benjamin Lumberbitch (or whatever his name is) is ridiculously good in the title role.

        The St.Aubyn books from which the series is drawn are wonderful Bleak and hilarious..

            Ah shit. That was my bad I think. It came up as a double post in Tapatalk so I deleted one and left the other, but it must be a Tapatalk glitch as I’m seeing loads of double posts on my phone. Sorry about that.

              Oh, not a problem; I just wanted to make sure I didn't write something inappropriate. haha.

                Not at all, just me being a dope. I should know better than to do mod stuff in Tapatalk. It’s glitchy af.

                  Pro tip: read the forum in tapatalk, but if you need to do mod work, click on the "open in browser" and go web based.  It cuts down on mistakes like that.  Doesn't eliminate them, just cuts down on them…

                    Re-visiting it... It's marvellous... A masterpiece... Soderbergh's best work, Owen's best character... Grim, dark, dirty, inhuman, with a delirious, disorienting soundtrack to it... Vivid, visceral artwork...

                      It has Metallica for a soundtrack, and a whole lot of crazy hillbillies... Fantastic...

                      I also finished DARK... The German Netflix series... It was described a "more mature version of STRANGER THINGS" but it's mainly just pretentious, and less funny than WWII...

                        From PARADISE LOST… Looks like a mix of Pam from THE OFFICE (US), Gave (Megatron, Mansfield twat), and something from ASH VS. EVIL DEAD...

                          Think I've seen this…I know I've seen documentaries on the Memphis three before but not sure if it's this one exactly.

                            I just watched "Staircase" about an author who was convicted of 1st degree murder of his wife in North Carolina.  He was almost certainly wrongfully convicted, every state witness perjured themselves, and his closeted bisexuality played poorly with the southern, old, jury.  He said she fell down the stairs (and further theories actually suggest she was attacked by an owl).

                            It's interesting regarding the other shows mentioned, because people seem to have a strong tendency to seek "justice" for a death.  They feel like if someone is blamed, then the death is erased.  However they fail to see that by blaming the wrong person, or punishing someone unjustly, they add more tragedy upon the original tragedy. People can't accept that sometimes tragic things happen for no real reason at all.

                            This is made doubly hard when the police are essentially saying "yes we are sure this guy/guys did it."

                                          Watching The Strain. Not sure what to think. I want to like it but the whole vampire thing is getting tiresome. 4 episodes in and it's not blowing me away.

                                            It's a 3-part HBO documentary… Paradise Lost "The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills" (1996), "Revelations" (2000) and "Purgatory" (2011)... Second and third part are, despite having lots of material repeated from the first part, necessary if you're interested in the final outcome...
