TV Series - What Are You Watching?

Just watched the first episode of that Sunderland Til I Die on Netflix. It's actually quite funny, the way they're building them up for their imminent great season. It's like watching the start of the Titanic where they're saying how fantastic the boat is when you know full well it's going to sink.

I absolutely loved that, the way it turned from a feel good doc to a living nightmare was just class, for anyone interested the family on Netflix is one of the best things on there at the mo, a must watch

Manifest on Sky. I'm 4 episodes in but I'm not sure about it. The female police lead in particular is annoying me. Anyone seen it all? Is it worth sticking with?

I watched all 16 ep , a few twists and turns, i got a bit fed up near the end.
Keep watching and let me know what you think.
I'm not sure if there's a 2nd series being made.

I'm not convinced I'll get to the end but if I get close I'll come back. It's an interesting idea but some of the characters are starting to grate a little.

Agreed, it was a great story line, but seemed to loose the plot . I kept thinking about the missing Malaysian flight 370.

I gave up after somewhere around the 4 episode mark. I think I mentioned it earlier in the thread. I simply couldn't buy into any characters as the acting was appalling. Truly awful.

I'm currently watching episode 12. It's not bad. I'm sticking with it to see what happens.

Yes really enjoyed the first episode - certainly very gripping and can’t wait for the next episode to find out what happens - BBC are really excelling themselves in regards dramas

Also saw A Confession - it’s a decent start as well

 

[Pin-seeker]

Yes - BBC are really excelling themselves in regards dramas

Not just in regards to dramas,I’d say anything to do with the bbc is blooming marvellous tbh Phil 👍🏻👍🏻

Got stuck into Mindhunter last week and god damn it's good. 8 episodes into Season 1 now and loved it. One of the best shows I've seen for a while, the portrayal of Ed Kemper is utterly fascinating, captured him so well.

Just started two different series, Copper (2012) on Amazon Prime, enjoyed the first episode and will continue. Then Russion Doll on Netflix, it's a take on Groundhog day, 3 episodes in and quite enjoying it.

Finished Killing Eve S2 last night, not bad but maybe just a couple too many plot twists for my liking.

Being watching a lot of the series about serial killers on the moment on a high number tv channel.

Find them interesting, fascinating(not the brutal aspect of the crime, but the workings of the mind that leads to the crimes and the persons thinking), wish my English had been good enough to have studied psychology or similar at degree and beyond .

You'd love Mindhunter. Understanding the psyche of a serial killer, what makes them commit the crimes they do and how they justify it to themselves is basically the concept behind the show, it's based on a book detailing the criminal profiling of a series of serial killers completed by the FBI. It's fascinating viewing.

Is that the one where they go around teaching cops the mindset of serial killers?
Watched the first three or four a while ago and was very impressed, need to get back into it.
