@Tim listened to a podcast with the original mindhunter guy on it, was interesting.
John Douglas? Mindhunter was one of my favourite books. Found it absolutely fascinating when I first read it.

@Bones yep
Wayne Williams, convicted killer and suspected serial killer, is thought to be responsible for nearly 30 deaths in the infamous Atlanta child murders. This 40-year-old tragedy is the subject of the podcast Atlanta Monster. The acclaimed FBI criminal profiler who got inside this killer's head is retired special agent John Douglas, whose work inspired the Netflix series Mindhunter. In this special bonus episode, Atlanta Monster host Payne Lindsey interviews Douglas about his work on Atlanta's Missing & Murdered case.
Was on the insomniac podcast mentioned in the podcast thread.

Blade excepted, I generally loathe superhero stuff, but The Boys was good fun. Probably because it's mostly about how celebrities are fluffybunnies. The guy who played Homelander was really good - perfect mix of smarmy, corny charm and sociopathy.
Antony Starr. He was great, so creepy.
Didn’t take itself too seriously, was fun.

Yus!
I'll reserve judgement until I see it. I can pretty much quote all 4 series, but reboots are a tricky thing. Also not that enamoured with modern times, playing on the vagaries of history is a key part of Bladder IMO. A modern time one will be very political statement based, I reckon.
Hope they don't screw it up.
There was talk some years back of a new Blackadder series set in a '70's heavy metal band. Tony Robinson was to play a drummer called Bald Rick.

Yep. Great read. He's written two books and the Jack Crawford part in Silence of the Lambs is based on on him.

Just finished S1-3 of Stranger Things. Was a mix of Alien, IT, The Tommyknockers, Red Dawn and Cold War paranoia done with panache and humour - bloody loved it.
Recommendations for similar shows welcomed...

Yeah - I've read all of his books - even the delve into fiction that he did!

It’s good but it’s not quite Strike Back levels of slaughtering ethnics and fucking any chick that casts a sideways glance at the main characters though .
I miss Strike Back

well no, they are very different shows. Strike Back is way better (god bless Cinemax) but i was entertained, and, watched a show with my wife to the end. Probably because 8 episodes isn't a big stretch.
Probably start The Boys tonight. It even had a big fucking ad at the movies the other day, they certainly aren't skipping the marketing

oh, and @antipodean i am half way through the new Last Chance U season. Fuuuuuuck it's a tough watch. Jason is such a giant douche!

I was hoping for a replacement for Strike back though , Tom Clancy always had a massive body count of ethnics commies and libtards in his books . Still good though .
