    @MN5 haha yeah, that was a but shit and I went 3 eps on that one!

    The implausible bullshit needle went past critical for that show. Absolute crap. Woulda stayed on longer if Jennifer Connolly went back to how she looked pre anorexia and got her tits out though to be fair.

    Did you like the movie? (I may have already asked this and forgotten).

    I enjoyed the movie but the show hasn’t been getting great feedback.

    @mikey07 A great series. I still dip into it now and again. Re-watched the first two seasons a few weeks back.

    It would be an interesting re-watch to try and pick the shark jumping moment. IMO they landed the jump but things got quite wobbly.
    The whole Irish season (was it 3?) was a waste of time but they pulled back in line for a bit after that.
    I just remember watching out the end out of obligation.

    @Crucial Yeah it was a bit hit and miss. The good bits though were very good imo, whilst the bad bits were just a bit meh rather than complete Barry White. Irish times - agree. Added very little.

    Prompted me to google the origin of jumping the shark. Not sure if this is really it, but its a cool clip of the Fonz in his undies and Richie C giving a white supremacy sign

    Happy Days

    Schitt's Creek was great. Wife also chose it but I enjoyed it.

    Written by Levy father and son. There is some funny schitt in there.

    @Snowy I started this the other day, about half way through S1

    Annie Murphy is tidy, Kevin McCallister's mum is a bit scary though!

    Yes. Annie adds to the scenery (and is pretty funny too).

    They did 3 months on set each year to make each series. Never won an Emmy until this year as the show grew in popularity, then won every comedy award (7) plus two others a few days ago.

    This was amusing (and I don't think a spoiler):

    *One of the most brilliant pieces of writing comes towards the end of season one when David, who everyone assumes is gay, sleeps with the motel owner, and best “girl friend” Stevie. There is confusion on both sides as David comes out as pansexual.

    Stevie: So, just to be clear
 I’m a red wine drinker.

    David: That’s fine.

    Stevie: Okay, cool. I only drink red wine. And up until last night, I was under the impression that you, too, only drank red wine. But I guess I was wrong?

    David: I see where you’re going with this. Um, I do drink red wine. But I also drink white wine. And I’ve been known to sample the occasional rosĂ©. And a couple of summers back I tried a merlot that used to be a chardonnay, which got a bit complicated.

    Stevie: Oh, so you’re just really open to all wines.

    David: I like the wine and not the label. Does that make sense?

    Stevie: Yes, it does.*

    Ha, just saw that episode last night. The dinner party afterwards was outstandingly awkward, fair to say the olds had way more fun at the Hawaiian party.

    @taniwharugby I still can’t quite work out what makes it such a good show, every single member of the family are soooooooo fucken annoying in their quirks and selfishness. Maybe that’s it ?

    Roland and Bob crack me up whenever they’re on screen as well....and my boys think the black chick with the bug eyes look like something out of Jabba the Hutts gang.

    @MN5 Roland and his deliberate annoyingness is almost too much for me but Bob is hilarious in an often creepy way.

    Just read now it won all the Emmys. It was one of those shows that kept popping up as recommended on my Netflix feed and eventually I started watching it.

    Anyone else tried Ted Lasso on Apple+ ?

    First ep was a bit of a slow burn but this has real charm and good characters. Some good laughs too.
    You start off thinking Ted is the joke but start liking him real quick. Set up like a standard fish out of water show but doesn't follow the formula. Ted isn't out of water, he is in his element, just that no one realises.
    Very enjoyable

    Loving it

    I didn't realise that eps were still being released weekly and caught up too quick.
    Now I have to wait for Fridays!
    Potential one to watch with the missus as well. Plenty in there for the wimmin.
