What TV are you watching?

Last night I watched Friday Night Live, featuring Kylie Minogue amongst others. Most of the audience were teenagers and most of her fans would be old enough to be their parents. It would have been a bit like The Word featuring Tommy Steele in the 1980s.

Worse still it is the first time I have seen this and the flat tone start by Kylie and no glasses on I thought it was a look a like programme, even more so given the title.

I’ve been watching the 3rd season of Billions.

It really is rather good.

Plebs (ITV2) - not as good as it used to be. It's really not the shame without Stylax.

I’ve reached the point in my viewing of Stargate SG-1 where I am now alternating with Stargate Atlantis.

Watched the 1st episode of Picnic at Hanging Rock last night... enjoyable but not sure what to make of it. Stylish, yes. Over-stylised, quite probably. I'll watch episode two before I judge it further.

Looks like Midsomer tonight as its on series link

 

[NorthernDave]

Tonight, Midsomer.

Also still enjoying Lucifer on Prime, although gutted it's been cancelled by Fox in America - hopefully it will be picked up by someone else as it's still one of the best shows on Prime.

Which brings me to Bosch, which is the best show on any platform (in my opinion) and is as well scripted and acted as ever. With only the last couple of episodes of S4 left to watch it will leave a big hole in our telly watching.

I might give American Gods another try.

Watching my first ever episode of midsomer murders. It will also be my last.
The plot is ludicrous and the acting dire.
I laughed when that young lad was stabbed by the knife dropped from the drone.

To be fair, it's not been the same since Bergerac left.

Bare Knuckle Fight Club

Not the testosterone fuelled rampage you'd expect from the title (though there are some brutal fight scenes), but a thoughtful and at times very moving documentary following the fortunes of underground boxers. I'm only a couple of episodes in but am already pretty sure the efforts of Shaun Smith, the guy trying to legitimise the sport, are not going to end well.

Well worth a watch, even if fighting isn't your thing.

Currently binge watching Salvage Squad from 2002/3 ish... the blackpool 'Jubilee' tram was an absolute beauty when refurbished. Suggs is a far better presenter than that bloke who hosted series one.

Been watching Tuesdays episode of 'Gotham'

Enjoying the new series of Gotham.

Just started the latest series of The 100, where despite the collapse of society, everyone still looks good and has access to unlimited new clothes and cosmetics.

A Handmaids Tale. S2. E1.

Weird. Will watching S1 help ? Its kinda compelling but I havnt got a clue what's going on ?

 

[AndyRM]

interesting programme, although he is a proper scumbag but there is a deep sadness, inner turmoil that is very much opposite to the image he projects.

Yeah, you can see this sort of defeated rage in eyes. A very troubled guy who has clearly made terrible decisions and know he will be haunted by them forever.
