Exactly. It’s amazing to me that services are so poorly resourced. I worked out that we probably have 100 cops on duty within 1km of here - and that’s Tokyo.
Shit, if you’re lost, you just look for a policeman.
I worked out that the cops to population as a ratio is about .46 here. There? About .1 with crazy ass crime. I had a look at some murder rate data - about 100-125* per year in Tokyo (9 million ppl) and around 50 there (100,000 ppl).
I just can’t imagine a place which doesn’t support law enforcement in that situation.
Anyway, so far I give it four holy fuck don’t go to Michigan’s out of five star spangled banners.
*this is murders and attempted murders, so the number is actually less. Around 70-90 going by murder rate stats.

My parents lived in Flint for a while when dad did a secondment with GM. The got married there too and keep in touch with friends from those days. A few years back they went there to see their old home. They knew it would be run down but I don't think they were prepared to see it completely derelict.

Sky Atlantic is one channel that is a pain to see shows that they own. The cost to access them doesn't stack up against the likes of Netflix or Amazon as you are only really paying for one TV channel (the rest are often bundled among other products anyway) e.g. I pay a little bit extra on my Virgin TV to get SkySports and that gets me quite a bit. All the sports channels plus Eurosport and Motorsport TV (shows V8 Supercars). To add Atlantic in costs the same as Netflix.
I understand the need to recoup on your own developed shows but I don't think that the model is correct to attract in non-Sky customers. For Amazon/Netflix I get their shows plus a massive catalogue of movies and other shows. -

haswatchedis watching the series -
The Fighting Season
Story about the summer period in Afghanistan leading up to the elections. 6 part miniseries which is OK in terms of a look into the relationship between ISAF and the ANA / ANP during the protracted handover.
A few firefights, a few idealist Yanks who say "The Afghans are ready for this" while not sounding 100% convinced.
There are some fucking awesome dudes in it tho. Jamsheed from the ANA is completely badass, and there is this big black dude in the US platoon who is just cool as fuck.

@rocky-rockbottom where else is your other world portal gonna be, your lounge?
Sheesh!
Maybe they created the portal there to control it, not wanting people cruising back and forth willy nilly, some people!!
Did you expect something like this?

Nick "The Honey Badger" Cummins is the new Bachelor. I can't wait...............
To be fair to this though, it is good marketing as this will pull a few blokes/fans to the show. I can see it being the most cringy/funny entertainment that this show could produce
