But yes, this is excellent

This show gets me crying laughing. The Santa Claus action movie trailer/interview from the latest season was so fucking ridiculous.

weather vane 10-05-2022 11:32 PM

That show is unreal. Detroiters too.

ron the dial 10-05-2022 11:33 PM

detroiters was ace

Binging Harley Quinn season 3..... "emotional" @ hearing Matt Ryan as Constantine again....

Lock Jaw 10-10-2022 09:34 PM

Finished up the season.... the show is just top notch...

Seanny One Ball 10-13-2022 03:03 PM

“Sprung” was marvellous stuff. I watched for Garret Dillahunt and stayed for Martha Plimpton’s finest ever performance. That’s a 3.5/4 show out of nowhere.

Bunch of early release prisoners move in together and take on the Covid society. It’s consistently hilarious and the acting styles mesh like butt skin on a burn victim.

Fignuts 10-13-2022 06:54 PM

Finished the latest season of what we do in the shadows. All in all didn't quite hit as strongly as other seasons. Kid Colin was funny at the start, but wore thin with me after a while, and the whole nightclub thing wasnt hitting either. Still head and shoulders above most stuff out there though

Fignuts 10-13-2022 06:56 PM

Oh I will add however that the House Flipping episode was fantastic.

XL 10-14-2022 02:49 PM

Finished rewatching Brooklyn 99 S1-7. Can’t find S8 on a streaming platform in the UK.

Seanny One Ball 10-14-2022 06:12 PM

WWDITS did have a weaker season. It will recover hopefully, and if not the first three seasons will still guarantee it legendary status.

Lock Jaw 10-16-2022 12:11 AM

Been binging The Flash season 8.... had watched the five part Armageddon story and then no more....

Arrowverse and Flash definitely past its prime.... but I dunno.... gonna miss it and the "wholesome style"....

Lock Jaw 10-23-2022 01:22 AM

Been rewatching Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist.... such a shame it got canceled.... want more....

Seanny One Ball 10-23-2022 09:04 AM

Jane Levy shows get cancelled.
It’s a shame because she’s great, I liked Suburgatory a lot.

Seanny One Ball 10-26-2022 03:06 PM

Binging “Barry” this week because I watched a couple of episodes a while ago and then forgot about it. I’m kind of glad I did because I didn’t know anything about it and honestly it turns into a Sopranos-style tour de force fairly quickly.
You can’t even call it a comedy really, if it’s a comedy then my theory of The Sopranos being a comedy has to hold water.

It is exceptional television though, it is equal to every other truly great show in that it enforces its rules on you and you bend to them because the quality is so thickly portioned across the table.

The drama is actually better than the comedy, the comedy is purely a relief by season 3.

So much fucked up stuff happens. It’s very well put together. Also the action scenes can be great, that whole Taekwondo episode was just magic.

Seanny One Ball 10-26-2022 04:57 PM

Every episode of Barry moves forward. Some shows are terrified of progress because it signals the end.
Changes come thick and fast in Barry.

So far this is a 4/4 show.

rez 10-26-2022 10:11 PM

watching all the spooky shit on Netflix and Shudder

Seanny One Ball 10-27-2022 02:20 AM

Barry was fucking incredible…

Roll on season 4.

Seanny One Ball 10-27-2022 08:08 AM

Now onto Fargo season 4. I have kept it in reserve because it was never going to disappoint me.
There is too much quality on demand right now…

Found it pretty lackluster overall with some wonderful highlights here and there.


It was the worst season, and the tragedy is that because the previous seasons were so strong it’s actually hard to tell if it was bad or simply not as good.

Nadja was particularly annoying this season.

#1-norm-fan 10-27-2022 01:54 PM

Yeah. Especially with the night club storyline I felt like this season got too cute and campy at times. Deviated from the usual vibe of the show too much. Jokes seemed kinda lazy too.

#1-norm-fan 10-27-2022 01:55 PM

I still need to watch the movie. My big concern was that I would be comparing too much but after a down season it might be a good time.

Seanny One Ball 10-27-2022 04:01 PM

The movie is an all time horror-comedy classic.
Watch it ASAP.

Seanny One Ball 11-05-2022 06:15 AM

I watched every episode of the hit 1990’s show “Fantasy Football League” on YouTube over the last week. Football currently annoys me but if we could go back to the 90’s I’d love it again.

Dion Dublin the horse cocked warrior sells houses now.

rez 11-07-2022 01:01 AM

One of the twists of Interview with the Vampire I called.

Seanny One Ball 11-08-2022 02:11 PM

I’ve been looking for a good show to sink my teeth into and there are a lot of options so I went for “The Expanse”.
I saw an episode a year or two ago and it was ok but it didn’t blow me away, it has great reviews and I have been told to just press on through season 1 so that’s what I’m doing.
The cast is extensive and the sets have a lot of money behind them so hopefully it’s worth the hours I’m about to devote.

XL 11-08-2022 02:39 PM

Watched The Devil’s Hour starring ex-Doctor star and Lewis Capaldi’s second cousin once removed Peter Capaldi and the guy who plays Commissioner Pete Savage in The Batman. Pretty good.

Seanny One Ball 11-08-2022 04:53 PM

The Expanse is pretty good so far. It’s a mystery spread across the solar system.

The best thing so far has been a piece of imagery used immediately after a terrible act of terrorism perpetrated by the UN of all people. So far so good.

slik 11-14-2022 12:42 AM

Season 2 of The White Lotus so far is fantastic.

Seanny One Ball 11-14-2022 12:58 AM

I’m onto season3 of The Expanse and it is a very solid science fiction effort. Wes Chatham is an anchor but I sort of wish he was the lead. Steven Strait annoys me.

Helmsphere 11-14-2022 02:08 AM

I've heard great things. Just hard for me to go down the science fiction road for space stuff.

Says the guy with some much merchandise of Monkey fighting warriors from space.

XL 11-15-2022 03:40 PM

Watching Reboot on Disney+.

Tulsa King

Sylvester Stallone plays a mafioso who gets out of prison after 25 years and is sent to Tulsa by the boss he did the time for.
If that doesn’t pull you in it’s by Ty Sheridan. I swear that man is his own industry now.

Seanny One Ball 11-16-2022 03:25 PM

I don’t want to get my hopes up too high after this opening episode but this has huge potential. Stallone was the right man for the role.

Watched the first season and a couple of episodes of season 2... really like it

Wasn't liking it for like the first half of the first season but then started getting very good imho!

The first season of Rome was gold, and then before they even started filming season 2 it was announced that it would be cancelled, and they ended up trying to cram 2-3 seasons worth of stories into one, and suffered for it.

I recently watched House of Dragon, which I liked, though it lacks the humour and verbal jousting of GoT; it is kind of like season 5 of that show. After HoD, I decided to re-watch GoT, and I'd forgotten just how good seasons 1 to 4 were, and the crap-fest it became in season 6 to 8. It saddened me.

I'm about 3 years behind the times, but I'm watching Chernobyl at the mo, and it is very good.

I've stayed away from The Rings of Power; sounds like an absolute shit-fest of wokery.

Seanny One Ball 12-01-2022 03:53 PM

Chernobyl would be a perfect show if it didn’t blame the scientists so much.

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-02-2022 04:46 PM

I finished Chernobyl and it was pretty darn good. I'm a low-key Jared Harris mark, so I tend to enjoy anything that he is in.

I recently bought the fourth season of Westworld, so I'm going to re-watch the previous ones before starting on that.

I've also gone a bit old school and I'm on the first season of Miami Vice. I'm loving the 80s cheddar, and the woman who plays Gina Calabrese is an absolute dime.

Volchok 12-03-2022 09:20 PM

The wife and I have been watching Yellowstone, on season 3 now.

Blonde Moment 12-03-2022 10:28 PM

Started watching North of 60.

slik 12-03-2022 11:39 PM

Season 2 of The White Lotus is excellent so far, better than season 1
