Television, drug of the nation

Exactly the comparison I made when I described it to a friend last week.

It definitely reminded me of Catastrophe (which is great, Catastrophe is probably my most favouritest show evaaaaah) but with a cute dog on wheels instead of lots of sex. Definite parallels between the Ashley and Sharon characters.

I feel that way about most plot twists in any series that is longer than 3 episodes TBF.

Binged Perfect Couple whilst bed bound. Enjoyed it more than I expected.

Started The Old Man. Jeff Bridges is just so effortlessly good.

I'm struggling. Everyone is so unlikeable and not in a good Succession kind of way. Only two episodes in.

Didn't realise there was a S3 of Loudermilk. Very good show, different, interesting and still comic.

Loudermilk

I thought it was shite. I only saw it from the kitchen so missed a fair amount, but it seemed it make no sense and was badly acted.

Think that’s the appeal. Similarly to some of the characters in the white lotus.

Enjoying Big Boys on 4OD. Funny, light, but thoughtful/touching.

All good light entertainment.

Attention Sopranos fans. Very well put together, David Chase is always interesting, the audition tapes are fantastic. Hard to think the first episode aired more than 25 years ago.

Enjoying Kaos on Netflix.

This BBC train hijack thing is absolutely fucking abysmal. Yet I'm still watching just to see how much worse it can get.

Watched the first part. Good reminder how good it was and how much it defined the genre.

Now want to watch it all again. Just need to convince my OH to agree.

Knocked off pt2 as well.

Cute ending.

Did this recently in about six weeks. Still incredible.

'hackjacking'...
Same here. Had never even looked at this thread before, but came here purely to see if anyone else had been watching it too. It really is staggeringly terrible. I've somehow made it through 4 episodes trying to comprehend how it got made.
I'm going to predict the child on the train is the real villain and is some sort of superhackjacker controlling it from his games console. But it'll probably be something even stupider.
Christ. Can I really waste another 2 hours of my life on this?

This chat reminds me of The Rig. Can’t believe I finished that.

Oh, gods, don't remind me. Must learn to walk away.

For a while i thought i'd stumbled onto an extra long M&S advert. Absolute shite.

The BBC put out some really questionable programs

Silent Witness has been absolute dog shit for the last 2/3 series

It was known as Silent Shitness in our household. We gave up on the most recent couple of series. Utter brain rot with people making the same fucking mistakes every episode.

Not really into interior design, but Designing the Hebrides is very watchable. Stunning scenery.

Is Slartibartfast the presenter? I know he did the Fjords

Yes!

Got into Culinary Class Wars on netflix. It's the cooking equivalent of Physical 100.
