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.

@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.

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 :-)

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.

The Night Agent S3 Netflix.
Previous series have been tight intelligent(ish) action thrillers. This one just dragged its heals for 10 episodes as it checked in each neuk and corner to see if there was an extra back story to be eeked out to stretch the running time further. Once you're fed up after 8 episodes, it's difficult to let go.

Cried my eyes out watching Call the Midwife.

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.

just seen it advertised so i wll give it a go
yesterday i binge watched a man on the inside on netflix . ted danson as a retired chap who takes a job for a private eye investigating a theft in an old folks home .Sounds a bit dull but brilliant acting from everyone involved .

Spot on, I'd say. Just started S3 of Fargo - hoping it doesn't go the same way, after the excellence of S1&2. Cautiously optimistic.

New on Netflix, Sara: La donna nell'ombra (Woman in the Shadows), another Italian giallo.

Set in Naples, so subtitles even more necessary than usual. :laugh:

I tried watching The Lady against my better judgement, and I was losing the will to live after the first half hour. I just don't understand the fascination with the royals.
If you want a comparative scandal, think the Post Office.
But not a comparable reaction. It seems that voters who care about bills and taxes outnumber residents who care about sh!tty streets, rivers and beaches.
Well tonight's episode of silent witness was as clear as mud ....
Silent Witness seems to have been getting increasingly far fetched for a while now.
