@Virgil supposedly an inspiration for some real ones too.
For sure, serial killers often inspired other ones too
Like a cool little club, trying to out do the other guy.Sounds like the fern meme thread.
It's also not proven if Gein actually was a serial killer either.
I think this guys life would be better on screen.....

@MN5 yeah isnt the 'club membership' 3 victims?
yeah on his brother, it was all speculation, as he supposedly had bruising, but no autopsy. -

yeah on his brother, it was all speculation, as he supposedly had bruising, but no autopsy.Well yeah ( no spoiler needed ) I'm fairly sure he was actually "only" convicted of two murders ( loads of other post mortem fucked up shit though )
Rookie numbers compared to Darmer and Bundy.
A lot of unsolved deaths were attributed to him so he probably committed more although they weren't proven.

Slow Horses - S05E01
A couple of seasons ago they showed the door to my old apartment in the background
Today - several solid shots of the window of same apartment, and then the Rod-ster dances around the outside of me old local - The Shakespeare.
I'm... like... it's like I'm on the telly, myself, innit?
But yeah - impressive that they continue to actually film stuff in the actual locations used in the books. -
I've just started Dark Hearts (BBC player in UK). It's a French Special Forces story set in Iraq. Only seen one episode so far but even with the subtitles it seems worthwhile persevering with.
3 what the fuck are they saying out of 4 tense action scenes.

I thought he was good last season when used sporadically, but I find him increasingly annoying now that they've increased his screen time.

4 pints is the magic number.

Up until then, there had only been 4 action scenes.
Caveat: I may have made that up to mask my idiocy.

The Responder S02
- not a fun watch
- but rather good
- some good acting
- dubious logic in decision making by characters at times, but usually easily explained away by circumstances
- a show that I typically avoided when wanting an easy escape from reality (99% of time) - but when I managed to commit to something more than popcorn-TV... Worth it

The Paper
The US Office was pretty rubbish compared to the UK version. What is it about Americans not being able to do subtlety like the Brit’s ?
( I still think the best US Comedies compare favourably with the best British Comedies but not this style of comedy if that makes sense )
This is a spinoff of the US office and is fucken unfunny and complete crap compared to that.
I lasted about 15 minutes. Utter shit. Avoid at all costs.

Makes you realise how good Ricky Gervais and all of the others were at what they did.

Sugar: Colin Farrell starring private detective show with a twist that came out about a year ago on Apple TV. Done in neo noir style, Chinatown style brightness though rather than the low lighting of traditional noir. I was pleasantly surprised by this after not really being too interested in it. Short episodes help, mostly around 35 minutes.

Hotel Costiera (TV Series 2025– ) ⭐ 6.5 | Action, Comedy, Drama
Hotel Costiera: Created by Elena Bucaccio, Francesco Arlanch. With Jesse Williams, Jordan Alexandra, Maria Chiara Giannetta, Antonio Gerardi. Daniel De Luca is a half-Italian ex-marine who returns to Italy, the land of his childhood, and takes up problem solving in one of the most luxurious hotels...
Fun premise and started looking like it was gonna be decent, but pretty quickly descended into bubblegum meh. Watchable, but nothing special.
Could have been much better, so disappointing in that regard.
