Started S3 of The Fall with Gillian Anderson, 2 eps in and while not a lot has happened yet, is interesting enough as you are speculating what will happen...although I think something needs to happen soon.
-
Watch The Grand Tour first show last night. Started off well. The opening sequence was worth watching, high production values etc.
Clarkson and Co were never going to change from being parodies of themselves (after all it is playing to what people want) but for me it gets tiresome. Show had some top visuals but by fuck it was stretched out to fill time. -
Still better than Top Gear without them. They were always doing that three-car comparison, now hopefully they just have their season specials and challenges.

It was certainly stretching belief that these clowns were allowed to drive those rare multi-million dollar super cars at high speed especially with no safety gear. When the pro driver hops in he has full kit on yet Clarkson looks like he has going down to the dairy for a packet of fags.

Caught up on some Westworld and Walking Dead last night.
Westward: He's a robot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG
Walking Dead: Jesus is farking cool.

Show needs more Jesus, he's not as cool as Daryl and Michonne but both of them are preoccupied at the moment .
On the other hand that mopey teenage girl irritates me a lot. Hopefully she dies soon. -
I don't believe either of those two have ever karate kicked a walker. That was hilarious.
You watch any Fear the Walking Dead recently? I gave up after blond mom and black dude were sinking shots in that bar. I wonder if they ever got round to actually killing off a main character.

Yeah I did and I'm pleased to say one of the whiny teenagers died horribly which was quite satisfying then uncle bully beat his killers to death with his bare hands.
Missed the karate kick but his entrance to the show last season was pretty cool.
-
I think he will be a pretty key player this time round.
Unfortunately I think the show will be like GoT a bit now. With 4 different communities to move back between, the pace will be pretty damn slow.

@Rancid-Schnitzel as Jegga says above, yep one of the annoying teems gets his just desserts, which is a direct result of him being a complete fucktard.
And yep, they made Cliff out to be a pussy for most of the series before he remembered he was Jake the Muss' bro....
As to TWD...I am tiring of the 'Saviours' a bit, so hopefully they wont over use them, or will at least resolve that issue sooner rather than later, although with Carl and Jesus going to visit....
Yea 'Jesus' needs to be on screen more, would like to learn a bit more about him, as he seems like he could have a cool backstory.
and on Westworld, yeah that dude being a bot was a bit left field, which now makes you wonder who else is.
-
Jesus, i need to stay off this thread, i hope to one day actually watch the Walking Dead.
Anyway, i am currently battling my way through Season 2 of Mr Robot. Now the first season was some seriously great TV, a real interesting premise.
But this 2nd season is fucking hard work. It's like they've tried real hard to up the "dark" side of it. And I've just got to the point where
:::
the whole first 7 fucking episodes were a sham, he's been in prison the whole time? fuck you fluffybunnies, that's not a plot twist, or a mindfuck, it's a giant 'fuck you!"
:::
I will stick it out, because I've come this far, but it doesn't have me riveted, and i don't feel compelled to watch a shit load every night. But this better be fucking going somewhere.
2nd Season syndrome is very real

@mariner4life FYI - spoiler function does not work at present, @Kirwan broke it
I watched S1 and really enjoyed it but had too many people say the same thing as you about S2 that I haven't bothered

Supposedly the 5 worst ads of recent times and they do indeed suck.
http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/tv-radio/86681737/five-of-the-worst-new-zealand-tv-ads-ever
The NZpost ones with the dancers suck and somehow don't get a mention, the one where Paris Goebell inexplicably raves about how good NZpost is just as bad as that blaring fucking trumpet going while the three chicks dance around .
-
I see that horrendous Hyundai 'GetLost' ad was voted NZs favourite.
Obviously most people have a much higher tolerance of precocious little kids screaming at them than I do.
If I was near that kid she certainly would run the risk of 'getting lost'. A shallow grave or the bottom of Lake Pukaki spring to mind.
-
@Bovidae agree its not as bad where the rugby team wipe their butts with baby wipes and tell Madeline Sami how clean their balloon knot feels now its more on the tedious side like the McCaw ads imho. The ones with the penguin are just stupid, would that make you want to buy their insurance?

Somehow this never entered my consciousness until you bought it up, good god shes like a young Lilly from big save. Any road trip with her is going to involve a dustbin full of ritalin and xanax, fuck what an annoying child.

Gilmore Girls. No show other than perhaps Greys Anatomy forced me to spend such long periods away from my own living room. And now that abortion of a show is back. What sick bastard did that? Fucker.
