Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Finished season 2 of Silo . That was great, shame it'll be another year or so before the next one. Severance S2 started. I really enjoyed the first one, but remember very little of what happened. S2 just starts and I'm a bit lost already. Silo finale was great. AppleTV is knocking ten shades of shi...

Re: Currently Reading

About to start Endurance by Alfred Lansing. It's not something I'd ordinarily read (I know what happens, for one...) it's been forced upon me, but it's been introduced as "the best thing he's ever read"... I'm also reading Fall of Cilivsations, the book of the podcast. It's weird, when I went throug...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Silo is excellent. I’m genuinely invested in the finale.

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Just finished watching first season of Silo , off the back of recommendations in here. It’s good I like it, not as much as others did maybe. I just can’t find myself caring about any of the characters. And Sims’ likeness to Andrew Tate is irritating me. Nevertheless, the finale was excellent, and I...

Re: Your favourite stuff of 2024

Ella Purnell (who I love incidentally), seems to have come out of absolutely nowhere. Is she lead in Arcane? She's lead three of my favourite TV shows of the last few years; Jynx in Arcane, Gwyn in ST: Prodigy, and now Lucy in Fallout. I first saw her in Fallout and thought she was excellent. I thi...

I quite enjoyed Sweetpea also (though it’s not one for this thread).

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

I don't think we're the target market for these clip shows, it's for people's nans who just want to stay sat down after the king's speech and have a chuckle for the 1000th time over Morecambe & Wise and Del Boy falling through the bar, and think about the good old days... Exactly, so why is a new v...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Migraines. Why appear only after fun stuff and at inopportune times. :x I should be allowed to eat cheese and crackers ( at Christmas no less), without having to spend half the night lying in bed like I’ve had a minor stroke. On the subject of those rubbish Christmas clip shows - what I don’t follow...

Re: The Christmas Thread

Some good Christmas telly too, which was nice.

Disastrous numbers for ITV. Coronation Street and Emmerdale Christmas specials both beaten for viewing figures by a repeat of Weakest Link at c.3pm :lol:

All the best.

Hope everybody is having a great day. I’m having to have a 15 min lie down - too much meat.

Bizarrely that isn’t part of More4’s marathon tonight, though apparently it was on the other day so perhaps that’s why.

Nevertheless, I stuck it on this morning because it’s probably my favourite Christmas special.

Re: The Christmas Thread

Extraordinary bump!

Echo my previous message. Hope everybody is suitably oiled and if not, suitably relaxed, stressed and or satisfied.

Currently watching the Father Ted marathon on More4, as has become tradition. All the best to everyone and their families.

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Been using my time off wisely… Watched The Penguin . I’m not ordinarily a superhero person (though this season isn’t really superhero), but I think this alongside Fallout are my standout shows for the year. Also started watching (incredibly late on this one) Derry Girls . Brilliant, funny and intere...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Just finished the new episodes of Cobra Kai. I thought it was excellent, although I hadn’t realised it wasn’t going to be the end so was concerned the ‘final episode’ was going to end up imbalanced and rushed. That being said, I’m unsure where it goes from here. The lack of time spent on the new ant...
