@MiketheSnow yeah Good Beahviour is a decent watch, Michelle Dockery is tidy!
Watched a mini-series that aired on Nat Geo called The State which is a dramatization about British Muslims that go to Syria to join IS.
Obviously take it with a grain of salt, it claims a lot of research into it as it shows the harsh realities of what these people go through once there.

Norsemen
An excellent pisstake of recent Viking shows.
Only six episodes. Hardly any nudity.

Really enjoyed The State. Certainly a different take.

Ooh The Sinner is peaking nicely

Only Fools and Horses.
My youngest is obsessed with cars and has a thing for 3-wheelers. He was looking up images and found the Trotters' van. He asked me what Only Fools and Horses was and now loves the series and keeps imitating Del Boy and Rodney. It's terrific because I used to love watching that show with my granddad when I was a kid. Don't make shows like that anymore.
White Gold:
Series about double glazing salesmen in Essex in the 80s. Made by the Inbetweeners crew with 2 of the guys from that show. Quite interesting, but the main guy (he was on the abortion that was Gossip Girl) is just a total prick without charm or any redeeming features. If you're going to have an anti-hero you have to make it him likeable. Like I said, it's interesting to see how that industry operated and the 80s styles etc. but it's a very ordinary show. -

I guess less authenticity will be the go for the next season of Narcos...

@Mokey yeah I just caught up and yep, shes certainly creeping into WTF territory alright.
Obviously some of what we thought we knew earlier hasn't been very clear.
Gonna be interesting to see where they go for the finale.

@taniwharugby A lot of stuff left to explain!

Watched first part of Black Lake a Swedish thriller/horror about a group of friends on a trip to a remote ski lodge with a view to buying it. Spooky noises, strange child drawings, a weird janitor etc.
The scenery is stunning and there are titties.Speaking of ... where is Jegga these days?
Halt and Catch Fire final season is airing at the moment - they're doing the search engine this season.

watched the first ep of Mr Mercedes...wow, brutal opening sequence.

Mr Mercedes is a great show all round

@tim You haven't seen him in the Daredevil series? He was easily the best part Daredevil season 2. And no, they didn't spend much time on brooding and morals, at least for that character. His character becomes a vigilante after his family get murdered so I guess some brooding is inevitable.
If you haven't seen it, at least check out the prison fight scene he's in....
Warning, graphic violence:

A neat resolution to The Sinner.
Or is it?

I was seriously disappointed in the finale of The Sinner. After such gripping buildup in episodes 1-5, and the batshit crazy of 6 and 7, it was incredibly tame, disjointed, showed huge leaps in logic, forgot how certain plot points had been described (like winter) and offered some truly stupid moments. Did you kill him? No! It was ALL the other guy who is freshly dead. And in my opinion, it also left some key questions not answered, or answered in a VERY vague/weird way. So I kind of hope that isn't it, although with the number of deaths, not sure where they could go.
