@Giles have you watched Widow’s Bay yet?

[SKT]

@Giles Have you tried out Mad Men? Probably my all-time favorite

[Matt]

I have tried it and it’s not for me. I don’t actually enjoy stories about people and interpersonal relationships.

[SKT]

I was hooked from the opening credits. Plus Jon Hamm and I have the same birthday and we were both English majors at Mizzou. I don’t know how we didn’t end up best friends

[Matt]

That’s cool. He’s a wild dude. I dig him.

@Giles what do you watch now then? or what genre are you into?

[Giles]

Noi nto a particular genre, but do enjoy spyey things:

Slow Horses, Black Doves Night Manager and the ilk.

Other stuff I have loved, Legends, Line of Duty, The Morning Show

[Giles]

@Matt Nope. Will give it a go - thks

[Nick]

@Giles Have you tried Succession? Brilliantly written, so quotable and very funny whilst also being dark. The Newsroom was also extremely fun to watch too.

Shame on you not finishing The Sopranos tho haha

[AdamJ]

@SKT Mine and Steve's too!

[Nick]

Mad Men is great. Slow brooding but so good.

I recently rewatched all of Twin Peaks. The lot of it, with my kid. She absolutely loved it - even if at times it's dark as hell and also peak Lynch in terms of the abstract nature of The Return. It's not a tv show I would recommend to most people because of how offbeat it is.

We're going through the classics.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer, The Walking Dead and all spin-offs, Lost all done. Currently working our way through Dexter. Lots more to get through (Line of Duty, Sherlock, From).

We are HUGE Mike Flanagan fans too. So we've done The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass and The Fall of the House of Usher.

We have also watched Silo, Severance, Pluribus and have started Windows Bay.

Got the new Cape Fear reboot locked and loaded.

Early season brand pitches by Don Draper are so good.

@Giles said in TV:

Did Harry Hole a few weeks ago, thought the story line was a bit lazy and some of the characters too damn obvious. Watched it to the end though, and yep, the soundtrack was great......

I love the books so was looking forward to getting round to this

[goosehd]

@Giles with all of the free time on your hands…(sarcasm on), I don’t know how you find time to sit down and watch a series of any sort. Mister, I’m sailing to Paris, diving with sharks, eating sushi in some back alley restaurant in Japan that most of us never would know existed, and on, and on.
