Current TV Boxset Addiction

[Hawkmumbler]

Just Started GAME OF THRONES.

Yes, I'm six years late to the party.

First episode is a bit slow but does a reasonable job of setting up lots of characters and their relationships - some of them actually seem likeable. 
(cf with the new Beeb historical boobs thing Versailles - which won't be getting anoher watch).

Only another 49 to go in this box set - then onto Season 6!

Look forward to seeing you in the gutter with the rest of us soon, Tips!

And don't worry, you'll hate everyone pretty soon.

I'm about half way through the first series of Silicon Valley and it appears to be quite humerous. A show about a bunch of nerds trying to make it rich from some music app they've come up with. Better than it sounds.

We've been devouring the new documentary series OJ Simpson: Made in America, which makes for an excellent companion piece the equally brilliant dramatisation The People Vs OJ Simpson, which we watched earlier in the year.

Frankly, the doc doesn't even question whether or not he did it, it's more about the wider context of the case, and how he got away with it.

Orphan Black

While out and about I spotted a twin pack of series 1 and 2 for a price so cheap I couldn't pass it up. I knew nothing about it beforehand other than reading the words science fiction and clones on the box. Well we managed to devour the two series over the course of the week and then picked up number three which ate through the weekend! Suffice to say we were both very impressed. Some of the shots with the lead actress playing up to four different people in the same scene is a joy to watch. And there are a lot of laugh out loud moments too. If anyone hasn't seen it yet for whatever reason, go out and give it a try. I think there is enough of everything to keep most people happy. Great couples viewing.

I think that's on. Netflix. It didnt really appeal when I read the description but maybe I'll give it a go.

I finally started watching Agent Carter. I say 'started', I'm five episodes in already. While they lay some stuff on a bit heavy and there's some stuff that's a bit predictable, overall I'd say it's very good.

GAME OF THRONES

Up to Episode 7.  Am worried for Sean Bean.

Also thinking about how the casting call for this must have gone.

"We are doing a fantasy, historical drama."
"Sounds interesting, I'm in".
"Good. Do you have any porn film experience?"

half way through latest Peaky Blinkers... loving it!

Nah he'll be fine - Sean Bean NEVER dies in anything ... 

[TordelBack]

Yep, I can guarantee you haven't seen the last of Ned's disapproving scowl.

Bloodline

As watch both seasons on Netflix, first season was brilliant but there no needs for 2nd season, as this is example of why it better as one-off season.

‎Ben Mendelsohn is one to watch!

There maybe another Jock coming but my lips are sealed  ... so still in double figures!

Pity about the GRennie droid... I wanted my Rain Dogs co-signed.

Why can't any thread stay on topic here?
