TV Series - What Are You Watching?

[Springveldt]

Couldn't get Netflix working. Pesky BiL has changed his password.
Watched the first 2 episodes of The Boys on Prime instead. Fairly entertaining. Might watch another couple tomorrow, as MrsA is away - wouldn't be her cup off tea.

Absolutely loved The Boys. Karl Urban was brilliant in it.

Currently watching "In From The Cold" on Netflix. Up to episode 5 now and I'm not sure about it tbh. I've committed this far so I may as well finish it.

Just finished Reacher on Amazon. I enjoyed it but I enjoyed the books as well. At least they got someone who actually looked the part this time although I just keep thinking of him as Thad Castle from Blue Mountain State.

Even watching that I kept thinking "Thad is going to say something funny here". Just one of those roles that no matter what he plays I'll always think of Thad, such a funny, funny character.

Just checked Modern Family - can I start on Series 3 (currently in TV schedule) or will I miss some important stuff??

Modern Family is in some ways very American, the cultural references are all pretty American, but the style is quite British, with episodes using specific styles like the classic farce, or strongly referencing other shows or stage plays. There is a lot more going on with the characters and plot than it seems.

It was always the unspoken punchlines and knowing glances through the fourth wall that cracked me up.

I thought the last episode of series 3 was really good but tearful.

We have just watched S3 over 3 nights, probably not quite as good as S1 and S2, but we very much enjoyed it just the same. Yes, couple of gross characters with gross ‘jokes’ and attitudes, but that’s life and people isn’t it, and that’s the point (and things work out for them just as I would wish them to - no spoilers here) - and yes…I admit to a bit of curious ‘runny eye’ at times during the final episode. Just a lovely and thoughtful 3 series.

I am considering The Righteous Gemstones on Sky Comedy…maybe…meanwhile back to S3 of Ozark.

Halfway through the second season of Modern Family. Why have so not watched this before? It’s absolutely brilliant. I was genuinely crying with laughter last night.

It’s especially awkward watching it with the kids ?

I did point this out on here ages ago and got slated for it. Glad to see others have now found it, and are enjoying it.

I notice there's not much of a shout for Chloe. I'm loving it. It's totally compelling.

Also, you could try Upload. Nice idea. Early evening viewing as warm up for better things later. His "Angel" is stunning.

Really enjoyed Upload, Season 2 is about to drop on March 11.

I've gone retro at the moment, watching Blakes 7 series 3 on Forces TV. I do not remember any of it from the 80s although I watched avidly back then.

Just finished the last series of Succession, a bit same old, same old but did watch the lot so it cannot be that bad.

 

[GB72]

Still watching The Rookie but not sure for how long as gone a bit OTT this season since they qualified.

Bilions is holding up surprisingly well without Ax and has actually been refreshed.

Seal Team, reliable watch but not sure how much more life it has got in it.

Wakking Dead back next week though.

No you didn't.

Just started Gomorrah, excellent first episode ?

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

The Great Pottery Throw Down.

And so we are down to the final 5 of this lovely programme. Jenny my fave, nip and tuck with AJ, and sad to see Ellie go with Siobhand returning on crutches.

Started on Chloe this evening. Looks intriguing. Not got much idea what’s going on though.

Certainly agree with that, very easy on the eye and fun. Both things you cannot say about Siobhan. ?

As usual they have got together a genuinely nice bunch who just enjoy what they do. The competition is just secondary. It comes across and is enjoyable.
Similar with Landscape Painter of the year on Sky. Not every program needs a body count. ?

As usual I was unsure about the presenter change at first but she really grew on me and was very funny. Shame to see her go. I love the modesty of the potters - they're amazing.

I Know, AJ is the most talented potter in the competition but she has no idea!! So humble every week. Think she will win it.

Agreed. Her genuine shock at the feedback is lovely and not at all contrived. I'd buy her gnomes and otter in a heartbeat!
