oops, editing to fix.

Started watching a Netflix documentary series last night called "Losers" about pro sportspeople who lost, and what it did to them.
Episode one was Michael Bentt, who hated boxing, but became a world heavyweight champion before nearly dying at the hands of Herbie Hide.
Episodes are nice and short and look reasonably interesting.

That didn't look half as funny as I expected.

finished this last night. Pretty good little series. Nothing hugely insightful, but it's pretty varied, and i love a sports story.
I watched and learned about curling; dog-sled racing; figure skating; desert ultra-marathons; English soccer; and last night the last episode of the season was Jean van de Velde and the '99 British Open, and how it affected him.

Saw the final of The Umbrella Academy.
Really was a slow but well done series with a fantabulous final episode! Loved it. Hope they do a second season.
Is The Afterlife (Ricky Gervais latest thing) a series or a Netflix Movie? Looks excellent.

Yeah this is OK. Kind of wished they'd gotten some bigger names though. I mean like guys who missed a vital penalty or someone who kept choking when it mattered the most. Might be difficult to get them to speak. Ian Baker Finch would have been a great addition.

Ian Baker Flinch is the best, and harshest nickname.
Maybe if they get a 2nd season they will go bigger? This was sort of quirkier stories. The curling one was surprisingly compelling.

Poor fucker.
Hope so, there's amazing potential there. Haven't seen them all yet. I'd imagine the winter sports with the ridiculously minuscule margins for error would have some serious examples of choking.

Me too . It is really dark though, I don’t normally binge on shows but his character was such an awful person I wanted to see where it went.

I watched the first one to see what it was like, and ended up watching the whole season. Was excellent, very unusual look at grief.

Watched The Widow - Kate Beckinsale, Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister)
Thought this was pretty decent, felt they tried to have too many little sub-plots running, but all tidied up in the end reasonably well.
