TV Series - What Are You Watching?

Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams. Brilliant TV. Honestly not sure why I like it so much. Freddie's ok I suppose, can't stand gobby teenagers, hate cricket. Love this programme.

I'm not a cricket fan but love this documentary!
I think Freddie's great, and to be able to keep the interests of more than a dozen misfits takes some doing.
Especially the lad that captained the team last week. At the start of the series he was a real pain in the arse but Fred made him captain for the match against a very good girls team. I particularly liked the way he showed the girls captain a lot of respect at the end of the game.

So much more than cricket and they are building those lads into different, better human beings. Sean (I think) even told his team to quiet the celebrations if they win, to show respect, and then celebrate on the trip back. Good stuff.

We are four parts through the six of The Perfect Couple…on Netflix…Nicole Kidman (looking gorg ) and Liev Schreiber as the couple. Set in mega wealthy Nantucket…it’s a perfect whodunnit - as in…any of the characters other than perhaps the investigating detective could have.

Finished series 4 of The Boys. It's like they are constantly trying to one-up themselves in goriness and weirdness, but it's still fun. Quite a downbeat ending but setting it up for a world war 3 final series I guess. Butcher has fully lost the plot. Still not sure what way Ryan is going to go.

Season 2 of Lucifer polished off, it certainly has some cheesy moments but we are still really enjoying it.

Did you watch "Gen V"? That took Weird to a whole new level!

Nah. I normally don't bother with spin-offs. Is it any good? Will I need to watch that prior to Boys series 5 do you think?

I think S4 was a major disappointment. It lacked the humour of the earlier series, didn't have any novelty deaths this time. Much darker, less interesting, to me.

I quite liked GenV. Took a couple of episodes to get into it but then it was good. Better than the usual spin off.

Agree, season 4 went too far down the Trump political commentary line and was worse for it. The connections were already there and clear and so that could have been dealt with far more subtly whilst focusing on a better overall script. In the end it felt like a build up to the final season rather than a season on its own. We all knew where it was going to end pretty much from the start (even if you have not read the comics).

Good to see the Gen V characters come into it in the final episode and will be interesting to see how the second series of Gen V ties into the final season.

There was a bit of a lull in the early-mid part of the series, but I thought it came back to life in the last two or three episodes. I was wondering why JD Morgan was there in what seemed a completely pointless character, until the rather good twist came.

Spoiler

Complete rip-off of Fight Club but I still didn't see it coming, haha.

I loved Gen V, one of the really good spin offs.

Just finished season 4 of The Umbrella Academy. Seemed like a "we need to write something" season, thought it was complete garbage. Shame as I loved the previous 3 seasons.

Also watched some weird anime called Kengan Ashura, was a bit mental but enjoyable.

Signed up for ITVX and watched Grace S1 E1 last night. Very good.

Seasons 1 and 2 were great, thought 3 was a bit duff with the ridiculous hotel thing, season 4 was just stupid… personally think the show went off course when a certain actor forced their personal crisis into the show.

Watching "Intergalactic' on Now (Sky?). I know it's not new but no idea how old it is. It's terrible. But I'll persist to the end - at least to end of season 1 anyway.

Apple TV.
Highly recommended

After starting Greys anatomy....I stopped caring after a while. My wife is hooked though. For me it's Coronation Street...in a hospital.
