What TV are you watching?

Oooh, I remember seeing the end of the siege live on TV at the time. Will have to have a look.

@Dan Lotus Not all that spectacular.

The robbery lasted for a long time, and a nothing like that had ever happened before, or since afaict, that's why the TV cameras were there. I can't remember the exact details, but at some point hostages just started running out of the front door, with robbers mixed in. This made it very difficult for the police to identify, arrest and prosecute those involved.

Yup, gave up on Shrinking series 2 too; it stopped being clever and started to become a soap.

Sadly there's a series 3 and Michael J Fox is in it. Such a badly wasted cast.

Well I am confused after tonight's silent witness episode

X-Files pilot episode on Ch5, ~15mins in. Loved this series in the early seasons, decades ago and long before home internet.

I'm just surprised anyone's watching after last week's storyline truly jumping the shark.

The Continental on Prime. I wouldn't describe it as a series though. Imo it is a trilogy of films at 80-90 minutes long. Perfect for the genre.
If you like John Wick then you will know what to expect. High style over substance and unrealistic action. Great fun and I really enjoyed the subtle nods to other series and films.

Marshals.

Watched episode 1 today. In some ways unsatisfying, but they only have 48 minutes to set the premise, and theyre doubtless assuming viewers will be familiar with the Yellowstone backstory, so I can forgive them for that a little.

Not bad. Will watch next week and report back.

As a firefly fan I kinda forgive the obvious, I still waiting for season 2 😄

The film Serenity is about all there was of Season 2.

 

[Blazing Saddles]

I concur. I have lost interest and am watching it purely for completion. Hope there is not another series and will give it a miss if there is one. Seems to be a trend of mine with ATV+ series as I am going through the same with Silo. Poor value, and I only use it when I get freebies.

The same here. ATV series all seem to start well, fade then just become an uninteresting drag.

Indeed

No that's cool, I wasn't shocked as such, but it was the closest reaction I could find.

Just think it's nice that someone who recalls seeing the actual news footage can now watch this dramatisation of the event.
Be interested to here what you make of it :-)

 

[biggs682]

Well tonight's episode of silent witness was as clear as mud ....

 

[fossyant]

New Series of Monarch, the Godzilla, Titans and Kong Spin off.

Couldn't find S1 so watched the youtube catchup, then realised I had seen Season 1. Not that memorable then...

S2 is OK. Usual story of humans poking stuff they shouldn't, make a mistake, monster gets out. CGI is good though.

I keep turning on the TV and an orange clown keeps coming on. He's never very happy and now doesnt like UK and Spain.
