I’m going largely against the grain with that. I enjoyed it. Yes the middle section where that fix everything is rushed and dumb but the first section leading to THE DEATH was brilliant, and seeing as I’m a big old softie, I found the very end quite moving. I don’t really understand a lot of the criticism of how it got wrapped up. What were people expecting?

For those watching Chernobyl I highly recommend the podcast. It makes me want to re-watch the episodes as the podcast gives additional information into the disaster and the personal stories portrayed. Long story short, based on the research the creators of the show did the drama of the HBO series is actually under-emphasized compared to what actually happened.
And for readers - the book 'Voices from Chernobyl' has a number of first hand accounts of the happening.

Thanks for those tips. I’ll endeavour to get to grips with both.

Re-watching SPACED… I actually bought the DVD set for this (2nd hand) well over 10 years ago... And I'm glad I did... So much fun... And so many familiar faces!..

Chernobyl is all @Chesson has been talking about in the office. It's def on my list.
I am absolutely hooked on The Act at the moment, had to force myself to turn it off after 5 episodes last night.
I remember reading about it on forums when it all happened, totally bizarre and messed up.

As you all know, I'm a huge fan of the holidays… Christmas, new year's eve,... But not because of the festive mood, oh no, but because it's that time of the year that THE BIG FAT QUIZ OF THE YEAR drops... Huge fan... And now I've just discovered 8 OUT OF 10 CATS DOES COUNTDOWN...
AND THERE ARE 17 BLEEDIN SEASONS SO FAR... 17!.. SEE YOU NEXT YEAR, EVERYONE!..

Well I've just discovered a true television gem… FISHING WITH JOHN...
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139776/
It's from 1991, has guests such as Matt Dillon, Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe, Dennis Hopper,... It's as if the show itself took a lot of drugs... Twin Peaks meets Burdain's Parts Unknown...
I can't post a direct link, but if you were to look it up at LimeTorrents.info you might find it...

Dark
not sure if it's been discussed here….I'm half way through S02.
Engrossing, beautifully shot, great sound design and music.
Can't recommend enough. -
DARK S01 was good. Completely devoid of humour but then it is German after all… Heard less good things about S02 but yet to watch it meself...
TOP GEAR S27 was absolutely glorious, and I hope Freddie, Paddy and Harris will be back next year...
STRANGER THINGS S03 was just perfect 80ies all killer no filler American pastiche...
I just started watching PERPETUAL GRACE... One of the writers is the guy that made PATRIOT… Together with TERRIERS this is one of the less known US shows I always recommend…
