Television, drug of the nation

Been good so far. Haven’t watched the last episode yet. Still recovering.

Just finished the season with a suitable end point...

Anyone spent much time with either Devs or Tales from the Loop? Started and keen to hear if its worth carrying on with them...

Intrigued to check out Devs... Been watching S2 of Project Blue Book, it's just the X Files with more flying saucers but it has hit the spot during these strange times...

Dolores totally kickass and new season going all bladerunnery. Can't wait for next episode

Devs

only watched the first two so far and there's a few things that I really enjoy about it yet I got a hunch the story is gonna be a bit shit

From the loop is slow.
Two in and it feels overly styled

Devs

Really enjoying it, hope it's a single season thing. Can't imagine it being dragged in to more.

OK. Devs started off well.

Kind of think the main Boss guy needs more bacon though.

We watched all three parts of the coughing major this evening, trash tv but well put together.

Unorthodox on Netflix.
Limited series.
Such an authentic insight into Heredi Jewish life and traditions. Couldn't believe the actors were not haredi jews.
Fluent in Yiddish and in Hebrew songs and payers.
Acting in general is awesome.
It does have the Netflix Original style, with the opening credits and score a bit like one of the Netflix marvel series

Been watching Hunters on Prime the last few days. About of group of Nazi hunters. Al Pacino mumbles a bit too much but a dark but fun show.

Homeland looking like it is going out super strong until the very end

I gave up about three seasons ago - should i pick it back up again?

Who am i kidding; i've got fuck all else to do!!

Guess it depends why you gave up but looks like it's going to be a rollercoaster until the final episode.

I think the last couple of seasons have been better but one thing is I think it has been really good at being super current, not sure if that will hold up even a couple of years out of sync, for example was a character who was blatantly meant to be Alex Jones who is now less relevant and they completely fumbled thinking Hillary would win and making a character based on her

Finally had the time to watch Sopranos.

Have considered this, is it worth it? Does it hold up?

Yes. I know it's not exactly a hot take, but it's still one of the best shows ever made. I probably rewatch in once a year.

Enjoyed it but wonder how much was made up. Felt a lot like a British version of "I Tonya."

is it worth it

YES

The Alex Jones character series is the one I stopped on (I think). I will try and get going again.

Just about to hit S3 but it is a great box series.

The Last Dance is great viewing, particularly if you’re clucking for some sport.

I'm very late to the party, but Detectorists is very good.
So calming and low maintenance. Easy after work viewing with a cup of tea.
Highly recommended.
