FloorFiller Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 new South Park has been okay but not really been doing it for me. it's all a bit too topical. i know that's been South Park's schtick for the last few of seasons, but it doesn't seem as funny this time round, and the continuing story with each episode, whilst pretty clever, isn't making for great or original episodes imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZigster Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Seems like Monday night has become thee night for telly what with Fargo,TWD,the Leftovers and a new SAS programme.Why don't they spread it out a bit,seems like there's bugger all on for the rest of the week.Agreed, but I'd say there is bugger all on during the summer. Monday again and I still haven't got around to watching last weeks Fargo. Just too much in the autumn.Robot Chicken's back That's another 10 minutes I'll have to find.

5co77ie Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 The BBC have confirmed they are doing Daniel Abraham and Ty Frank's books 'The Expanse' as a TV series - handled right this could be brilliant - looking forward to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 You, Me and the Apocalypse just gets better and better. It twists and turns like a twisty turny thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t8yman Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 We started "The Bastard Executioner" - Kurt (sons of anarchy, the shield) Sutter's new one. It didnt start well, I was very close to turning it off in the first 20 minutes - felt like an extremely poor mans Game Of Thrones. However, by the end of the 90 minute pilot, we both warmed to it somewhat. We have watched to the end of ep 4, and its not a bad story. Its certainly more watchable than a lot of the tosh out there. Ed Sheeran is in it, and so is Scroobius Pip.I think we may well watch it to the end based on what we have seen so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 I had not heard any chatter about that show so hadn't paid it any attention, might have a catch up on a lazy afternoon sometime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Binged through the new Aziz Anzari Netflix sitcom Masters Of None yesterday. Would highly recommend - very funny, and plays out like a more lighthearted Louie comedy wise (without the stand up bits). Plus Aziz is just so likeable - even when he's hit and miss in his stand ups I can't help but love him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZigster Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 How had I not come across Rick and Morty before? Just loving it. So inventive.Bingeing through it with about five to go. I'm going to be sad to get to the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was meant to be a Xmas special this year. I watched the first few episodes of Scream and it's rubbish, the actors are so flat and robotic and why the fuck isn't it Ghostface in it?

FloorFiller Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 new Peep Show was good without being fantastic. it's glory days are obviously over but i'm hoping the at least give all the characters a good send off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
When Jokers Attack Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Fargo episode 5 was amazing, well the whole season has been but that was the standout episode so far. Already feels like we are approaching the finale the way it's going but still another 5 to go. Not a single scene is wasted and I find every character interesting.

There is something magical about those 6 episodes. Rewatching them all now before I get onto the new series has only confirmed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't love the first series, took me a while to get into and I only stuck with it because it was Fargo. Glad I did because it paid off in the end. But this series is the best thing on right now. Got me hooked from the first episode. Everything about it is just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Curious. I'd given it a miss with series 2, somehow it all felt wrapped up well with the first series complementing the film perfectly and I thought it was just milking things. I'll binge watch it when it's done I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipsteak Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 It's a stand alone story with a connection to the first, but you absolutely don't need to know the connection to watch the second series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's anywhere near as good as daredevil i cant wait. Watched the first episode, it's middling. I'll watch it through, but it's not as good as Daredevil (which also had problems) and it's so unbelievably inferior to its source material. To be fair, any TV adaptation of Alias is going to be unbelievably inferior, and this isn't a bad show. It's pretty much what V For Vendetta film is to the comic, serviceable enough, but just a lesser version of what was on the page, leaving me wondering what the point was of adapting it. I urge everybody to read Alias, there's a very strong argument for it being the best comic published this century, and is really easy to read if you haven't read comics before.

As someone who HASN'T read the comics I'm quite enjoying it 3 episodes in. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
