    Finished The Expanse.

    Very good, Amos is the coolest, warmed to Bobbie, and her accent has softened alot since he first season too.

    Do we know how many seasons it will be on TV? I'm holding off until they're all out, but I could break if it going to be forever until it's done. I've read the books, so I'm very keen.

    Edit season 5 signed up but that's it. I might start watching then

    It’s been getting good numbers for Amazon so should get at least 6. Helps that the last book is due out next year, so they know how many seasons are left.

    Finished The Watchmen tv series. A really well crafted series that got better the further you went into it. Only 9 episodes long, but a complete story and great character development. Good that Damon Lindelof (creator and head writer) learned his lessons from Lost and manages to finish a story arc properly.

    :::

    Nice dick shots for those who care about those things

    The Mandalorian was pretty bloody good. Great visuals, cool little stories.

    Would have been amazing if they had upped the rating, but again, I understand i am not the primary audience.

    I'm with i think it was @taniwharugby who thinks Gina Carano is hot. Dangerously scary hot.

    Very enjoyable show, thought Gina's casting was great, nice to have a kickass female character who actually looks the part.

    If you want to see more of her then see Haywire the film Soderbergh wrote specifically for her.

    I didn't realise that it was the last episode ... I assume it's coming back next year.

    Just watched the 1st episode of BBC's Dracula adapted by the genius that is Mark Gattis & Steve Moffat. 4.5/5

    Utterely bonkers, camp, scary, ominous, funny and threratening at the same time. They've set it in it's origonal location and time but updated it without being overly-PC or deviating too far from the characters in the book.

    If it carries on in this vein, it could well be the one of the best things the BBC have done for ages.

    The Mrs and I have really been enjoying 'Wellington Paranormal' . First season was a little hit and miss but the 2nd was good right through. Police Ten 7 laid the platform for Aussie viewers, I imagine it could do well in the UK too

    I've started with The Witcher

    The first episode was really fucking cool

    The 2nd episode was absolutely fucking terrible. I'll give it the 3rd tonight to decide whether or not i continue.

    @mariner4life I have 1 ep to go.

    Is a decent watch, if you keep watching you will see b00bees, if that kind of thing floats your boat...

    I found it a bit difficult to know whether what you were seeing was a flashback or current timeline initially.

    @Victor-Meldrew I watched ep 1 too, was mad alright, interesting enough for me to keep watching though

    @taniwharugby it's going to take more than tits to rescue E2.

    Game of Thrones has set the fantasy bar pretty high. And while i don't expect everything to have that level of budget, or visuals, i am going to need some sort of compelling character and storyline. 8 episodes is not enough to be wasting them

    If the bard sidekick is in the next one i am turning it off.

    The one where you meet the O'Leary's mum is gold . One of the Topp twins is her mum saying she never had a boy around but was always texting her "softball friends".

    yeah he is in it for most of the eps IIRC, to varying degrees.

    He was less annoying for me than some others.

    Its good when Caville is on screen, but the actors are very hit and miss. It's only 8 episodes and have watched worse.

    Don't compare it to Game of Thrones and you'll enjoy it more. Less flattering comparison I've heard is Xena/Hercules with better production values.

    I bristled at that, but it's actually pretty spot on.

    I'm not comparing, they are different. It's just that 2nd episode looked and felt like all the terrible fantasy i have seen in the past (Zena isn't a bad comparison. Also the Sword of Truth stuff that suuucked)

    As i said, I'll watch again tonight.

    Okay episode 3 and we're back on. That was cool.

    Didn't expect to see Quazimodo Corleone's titties.
