Untamed
Starring Sam Neil, Eric Bana, with the latter as the cliched moody cop with the tortured past.
Not a must watch, but a decent enough watch with a couple of little twists.
Tires
Finished both seasons, pretty good with some funny, silly stuff.
Just started this as well.
That opening scene was pretty horrific for someone like me who hates heights.
Some pretty stunning scenery too, not sure if they’re overdoing shots of it to make up for a cliched story we’ve seen so many time before. Will keep watching and decide !
I couldnt believe how "by the numbers" this was. And who the protagonists turned out to be.
It was laughable.
Best episode is episode 1......and then it descends into farce.

No.
Could possibly say yes if you compare her trajectory to the mum's.

Alien Earth
Deep. Dark themes. Formulaic. Scary. Derivative. Every trope from the films on display. Nonsensical sets (CRT screens in 2150 FFS).
Bloody brilliant so far. Seriously outstanding.

Thoroughly enjoyed it
Very happy there's a season 2

@Victor-Meldrew The creator, Noah Hawley, wrote scripts for Star Trek movies and TV pilots. They made the most stupid shit instead.

1 episode into Chief of War. Really like it, although I'm going to refrain from checking the historical accuracy on some parts in case that annoys me too much
I watched 2 episodes then got tired of the sub titles I don’t mind the odd French movie, but it just seemed unnecessarily painful watching a bunch of blokes speak a foreign language hen o know they can all speak English perfectly well

But its cast, story and cracking soundtrack are still top.
Didn’t even realise the supporting cast included Boba Fett -

That was a cool show, I’d love to see how it holds up today.
Little John is also the only man to ever beat up Clint Eastwood on screen without reprisal ( White Hunter Black Heart )

@Virgil Another vote for "loved that as a kid".
Rooobin..... the hooded man!
I had that soundtrack on LP, must have played it until the needle wore through it
Even listening to it now some moments give you chillsThe show wasn’t as great when Michael Praed left. Its cancellation was a shock at the time. Apparently cost was the main factor, at the time it was one of if not the most expensive show being filmed at the time

Yeah I remember the fight scenes, costumes etc being pretty good for the time.
Not Game of Thrones as you say but bloody entertaining.
That magical bad guy scared me, what was his name ?
-
@MN5 I can't remember any magical bad guy - but remember the druid guy - Herne the Hunter - creeped me out a bit.
Looking at wikipedia - you might be referring to Baron Simon de Belleme, or Gulnar ?
Turns out Gulnar - pagan sorceror - kiwi-ish. Tauranga Boys. -
