^ I fancy that.

Watching “In The Name Of The Rose”. Fantastic. Rupert Everett as Bernado Gui is a revelation.

I recently went down the rabbit hole for the 3rd time re-watching anything and everything to do with the West Memphis 3.

Did that a couple of months back…

Still can't forget the image of the one dad taking his teeth outta his mouth

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…

Seul

And, of course, RECTIFY, but that's a tad slower and more difficult to get into…

Always been tempted by Dark but never gotten around to it.

At the risk of having to forfeit my man card, Big Little Lies S2 is fantastic.

Seul

Well I've got as far as having downloaded S01… It's on the list...

But for now it's BASKETS S04 and THE HANDMAID'S TALE S03...

neph93

S1 takes some time to get going but ends strongly. S2 dives right in and contains some incredible performances.

I’m half way through Handmaids Tale S3 and it feels like it is treading water to a degree. Certainly compared to S2 which was mental. Still worth watching though.

I loved Stranger Things seasons 1 and 2. Season 3 is a festering dung heap of poor writing and overwrought dialog. It’s like all the dialog in the script was written in ALL CAPS. With LOTS!!!! OF EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!!! Like a 12-year-old wrote it. ::) Oh well. On to Dark season 2…

spitfiredealer

Yeah gotta say season 3 isn't a patch on the first 2

Giles

Loved S1, watched a couple of eps of S2, gave up…..

Seul

1>3>2

But obviously that's rather subjective Three is just fun at high speed… If you don't overthink it too much, you'll enjoy it...

Seul

Which is, coincidentally, like having sex with your mum…

Seul

(I'm still watching 8 OUT OF 10 CATS DOES COUNTDOWN, in case that wasn't obvious…)

YANKEE

This is absofuckinglutely awful…

https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/80238711

So awful that I became completely addicted; the shallowness of the characters, the plots that start and then just get forgotten, the bad acting, you name it, if it's bad they've got it. It is marvelous in its utter crapness.

Seul

I have a SOTY (show of the year)… PERPETUAL GRACE... Makes me slightly less depressed now that my '15 and '18 SOTY show is cancelled: PATRIOT... Same director, writer, and mostly the same actors...

This will help you get over it. Very dark and funny.
