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

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...

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

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

This is absofuckinglutely awful…

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.

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.

Ah man, No more Patriot? I LOVED that show. Remember seeing the pilot and having an agonising 3 month wait for the full first series. Edward and his attaché!!!

Cheers for the heads up on PERPETUAL GRACE, wasn't on my radar at all but it will be binged this weekend.

I seriously hope another tv station is picking it up… Just like the new THE EXPANSE series will be bonkers now that it's on Amazon...

If it's any consellation though, PERPETUAL GRACE is as good as PATRIOT... If you liked Ben Kingsley in SEXY BEAST you'll love his performance here

I'm currently watching season 3 of The Expanse. I like

GoT can suck a fuck, the finale of Handmaid's tale S3 is amongst the best hours of TV I have ever seen in 45 years. The whole season has been excellent but I have not shed tears over TV like that since I was about 12 years old.

That's great news, nephy… I kinda gave up after 5 eps of the last season but will soldier on... It wasn't bad, but it lacked drive, direction,... Or maybe I lacked drink, focus,...

I know exactly what you mean. But it picks up and you realise they were laying necessary groundwork for a spectacular end result.

Amazon's "The Boys" is dark, violent, and very, very funny. Highly recommended.

New Netflix docu AMERICAN FACTORY is pretty fantastic…
