Well there's kind of a love triangle with the certifiable Enid and his dad killed the kids father.<br><br>
This is kind of the same plot line as the book now, sashas hit but rosita is hotter and the big ginger was doing well to score her in the first place -
<p>I guess in a world of zombies, guys like Abraham and Glen can score way above their station!</p>

I loved the first two Ash vs Evil Dead episodes. Its tailed off unfortunately.<br>Watched first episode of Jessica Jones... thought it was a bit ordinary but I must admit to being over the Marvel franchise.<br>Hoping it picks up.<br><br>Watched the first few episodes of Limitless... cant stand the lead character, he's too much of a smug schmuck.<br>Probably wont stick with it.

<p>Started watching Hannibal and Peaky Blinders recently are hearing good things about both.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hannibal I've found to be pretty average, I don't really like the set up of how he becomes the criminal at the scene and have fond myself playing a lot of scrabble on my phone when watching.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm loving Peaky Blinders, I'm about mid way through the first season and it's on automatic start the next episode when I finish the first.</p> -

<p>Hannibal doesn't start very well, but gets better as it goes on.</p>

<p>I think I'm about 8 episodes in, is that past where it gets better? (That way I can decide whether to keep going, as I really should watch The Walking Dead so I don't have to avoid half the posts on this thread).</p> -
<p>I liked Hannibal, good watch (not a must watch kinda series like TWD, GOT, The Americans) although it did get tiresome about half way through the final series!</p>

<p>Caught the first few minutes of into the badlands , some hottie was cutting up a bunch of guys with about 8 different knives. Lots of matrix style violence, unfortunately is seemed a bit same old after that .</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was like Summer Glau going nuts in firefly but with way more blood and smaller knives, more of that and less talking would be nice.</p> -

I remember not being too impressed with the first season but I thought the second season was excellent. <br><br><br>

<p>Depends on what you want it for. The new one is apparently more powerful and can do more but, like many products NZ doesn't reap the full functionality anyway.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have an older one and it has been great as a way of connecting my other Apple devices to my TV eg if you see something on your ipad or phone that you want to share on the big screen, it just airplays across.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It works well (on a good connection) for watching movies from iTunes (at their prices obviously) and the Netflix app works well.</p>
<p>With a VPN or DDNS you can trick it to being in the US and use a US Netflix account if you want.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>NZ suppliers of product eg TVNZ OnDemand and TV3 on demand and Lightbox, for some reason, won't/ can't get apps on it. The OnDemand ones also won't Airplay stream from your device to the TV due to supposed licensing restrictions, although I think it is more to do with deals with Smart TV manufacturers. Lightbox currently doesn't stream because the numpties there didn't notice that iOS9 changed the airplay protocols to AppleTV and weren't prepared for the change.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you don't have other Apple devices and just want to stream then look at a Chromecast stick instead. If you want to access all of your Apple media such as music and photos, hire some movies, watch some Netflix and Airplay from your iphone/ipad then it does the job. </p> -
<p>yeap we have apple tv ~ bloody easy to setup up ~ mind you we are streaming off wife's mac so not sure how it works with a PC. You just plug it in allow homesharing on your iTunes account enter the password and your off to the races</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I really like how I can mirror my iphone onto the TV through apple.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>it also streams your picture library as a slideshow which is pretty cool</p>
<p> </p>
<p>downside is</p>
<p>the remote is bloody tiny and easy to lose ~ you can use your iphone as a remote though (which I haven't done)</p>
<p>when streaming from iphone it can lock up.</p> -
<p>Apple TV makes getting US Netflix easy. That's pretty much what i use it for. Handy for renting movies too. </p>

<p>Actually I forgot that you don't need to VPN for US Netflix if you set up a US iTunes account and point your AppleTV to it.</p> -

Have 2 of them, one in the bedroom for the girls ( and me at night) so easy to use Netflix my 5 year old knows how to use it. <br>
The US one is better -
<p>Had the Apple TV4 demo'ed and it is now the next gadget in the DK household.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Key features for me</p>
<ul><li>Plex TV app</li>
<li>The ability to search using Siri for all movies across your subscriptions, for me Plex (own movie library), iTunes, Netflix. You can have fuzzy searches such as best action movies of the 1990's and it will show the full list across all your sources, you can continue refining them by, only Stallone movies, which refines it further. Select the movie you want to watch and it will give you a choice of source to use.</li>
<li>Pretty good looking Game apps</li>
<li>Remote Control, easy to use (but expensive if you lose or break it)</li>
</ul>
