TV Series - What Are You Watching?

We are watching Mr Loverman. Four episodes in we are enjoying it.

Perhaps not for everyone…certainly miles away from the sort of crime/cop/murder/drugs and guns stuff that seems to be the preference of most on here. But for a change..👍
 
On brother-in-law's recommendation we watched the first two episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Not sure we were that taken with it. The unscripted concept makes it seem a bit waffly and dialogue-heavy - a bit hit-and-miss. Maybe it gets better as it goes along, I don't know. Also found it a bit weird that other celebrities play themselves, and he also plays himself, but with a completely fabricated wife, so not quite himself really. Odd.

It's truly a fabulous series. Stay with it.

It's brilliant. Larry David mastered awkward cringe comedy before Gervais thought of trying it.

Have you watched Seinfeld? Equally funny but less uncomfortable.
 
Agreed. I did wonder if that was the case for a while. Spookily similar 😱
As soon as I saw her for the first time I said to the wife that's the carer, she argued that it couldn't be as she'd aged about 30 years. I had no answer for that unfortunately.
 
Not Going Out.
Loved it from the first series.
This series, 14, is just so disconnected.
Ep1 the house inspection - good old fashioned farce. Funny.
Ep 2 the sex doll - totally surreal. Funnyish.
Ep 3 the two are bit actors in a fantasy "Game of Thrones" t programme (why/how?). Not so funny and no thread to previous episodes.
