I’m surprised they haven’t done a special Q&A in the build up to the last one

Rewatching Band Of Brothers again after 20 years. Forgotten how fantastic it is. Well worth watching if you've never seen it before.

Band of Brothers will always be brilliant. The Pacific was okay. Masters of The Air was a real struggle though - didn’t rate it at all.

Will watch The Pacific next, never seen that. I quite liked Masters Of The Air.

A good nights telly for me…

Ozark…finally got round to watching this. Just starting 2nd season. Boring it ain’t!
The Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan…I’m really enjoying this series. Madagascar tonight.
Inside No.9…brilliant.

yep, got my tickets booked. Can't wait.

Watch Dark Matter on Apple. Wasn't so sure at first, but now am really into it and loving it.

Hoping it doesn't end up turning into Quantum Leap / Sliders

Band of Brothers one of the best ever. The pacific rubbish imo, hated the format of them all being in different units. Masters of the Air was a slow burner but loved it by the end. Takes a few episodes to work out who is who with them all dying off, I think I'll give it a re-watch sometime.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Just finished 'A Gentleman in Moscow' available on Paramount+ or whatever illegal way you choose. Ewan McGregor starring.

Without giving too much away a Russian aristocrat is sentenced to life imprisonment in a hotel following the Russian revolution and his time there he views the progress of Russian society and interactions with people through this narrow world.


7/10 in all worth a watch.

that was genius. had no idea how they were going to pull off a finale with a show that's a completely different story every week but they absolutely smashed it.

there's not many shows that give the fans the ending they want but they managed to do it when none of us had a clue what we wanted!

It was a great way to end things.

Yeah, I felt it was full of warmth and love and it was like an old school reunion, but with a bit of tension thrown in there.

I laughed at the On the Buses nod, but I just wonder how many "younger" viewers (so anyone under 50), would know too much about the programme at all.

 

[shmmeee]

So should I start watching Inside Number 9 then?

Most definitely

 

[shmmeee]

Most definitely

Just start at S1 and go through?

 

[Otis]

Just start at S1 and go through?

Yup.

I'm the words of Julie Andrews "let's start at the very beginning.."

 

[chiefdave]

Just start at S1 and go through?

The last episode is the only one that references anything that's happened previously so apart from that you can watch them in any order. But you might as well start at S1E1 and work through, there's not really a 'better' order.

One episode was a live episode which won't give you the full experience watching it on catch up but still well worth watching.

 

[shmmeee]

Was more checking that they’re all worth it. I know some shows don’t hit their stride until later seasons.

 

[Otis]

The Boys are back in town.

Don’t worry if you don’t think S1Ep1 is all that much - I didn’t. Love the series though!

It's an anthology so you can jump in and out whenever you feel like it. I recommend just going from the start as something someone advised as rubbish you might find great.

S1E2 would be in my list of top 5 episodes so definitely don't skip the early ones.

Loved the episode especially Robin Askwiths cameo

I’ll be getting that watched after work

Watch Dark Matter on Apple. Wasn't so sure at first, but now am really into it and loving it.

I really enjoyed the first five episodes. It's getting a little tedious now, get out the box, not the world they want, get back in the box, repeat...

On it now. Very good as per usual.

My main fear is that it could now run for 127 seasons.

 

[ajsccfc]

Despite loving both LOG and Psychoville I've only ever seen the odd episode here and there of Inside No.9, I need to fill in the blanks with it

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Hmmm…just watched the last Inside No.9. I can’t say I rated it. Maybe I was missing something.
Great series though.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Yeah not the best, a bit soppy. If you were chasing a random one to watch you wouldn't pick it out.

 

[torchomatic]

For the love of God please let something actually happen in Dark Matter.

 

[AOM]

Saw The Watchers at the cinema this week. First film directed by M. Night Shyamalan's daughter.
Meh, started out quite interestingly but felt it was a bit too silly in the second half.

Looking forward to 'Trap' later on this year by her dad, although I think the trailer gives the twist away

 

[ccfcchris]

No idea if this has been mentioned but I enjoyed the first series of Slow Horses.

Follows a team of British intelligence agents who serve as a dumping ground department of MI5 due to their career-ending mistakes.

 

[ccfcchris]

The Bear was excellent as well.
