    @JC I usually avoid anything with Grant in it, although I thought he was good in The Gentleman recently, so might give it a whirl, if only to see an up and coming new actress...

    Support the arts.

    @taniwharugby He’s actually good in this. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, don’t know if you saw A Very English Scandal, he played a very depraved gay MP and was great in it.

    Watched The Queen's Gambit on Netflix, a good show to watch with the missus. Acting is very good and story is interesting. Basically set in 60s following orphan girl who turns out to be a Chess Master and follows her struggles through life.

    I'll go as far as 9.5/10 (I'm a tough judge)

    You had my hopes up that the alltime best TV breast appearance award, currently held by Alexandra Daddario in True Detective, had been beaten.

    Finished S2 of The Boys.

    Still pretty good, plenty of shock value in some of the scenes.

    I do like Butcher...comment he made which alludes to his Kiwi background and his characters British heritage - where I come from, c*nt is a versatile word (or something to that effect)

    In that vein, he says to a 10 year old kid, and what did I tell you?
    Kid - Dont be a fluffybunny!

    I know I posted this a few months ago finally got thru season 7 of Sons of Anarchy wow what and ending I’m sad that’s it done, I’m now about to start watching Mayans MC I know from what people say it has nothing on SOA but I will give it a try.

    In terms on Gangs of London I enjoyed it, definitely worth a watch.

    Yeah GOL is worth a watch, but they just took it waaaay too far beyond the realms of believable after a few episodes when it started off like it might have a bit more of a "real feel" about it.

    Loudermilk is definitely a winner, getting some good laughs from me now.

    Barbarians - the new Netflix series about the Roman defeat to the Germanic tribes in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest.

    Only a 6-part series so a quick watch. Reviews have been generally positive although there has been some comparisons to Vikings due to the hottie lead actress Jeanne Goursaud.

    Gangs of London is still not here despite Stan having the rights.

    On The Boys S2 it was good, but I don't think it was as unputdownable as S1. It still cracks me up that there are two Kiwis as the leads.

    Brave New World: This was both good and crap at times. Based on the Aldos Huxely novel. The main characters best friend (Kylie Bunbury) was hotter than her so that was kind of annoying as she got way less screen time.

    Upload: Another afterlife show from one of the Parks and Recs guys. I thought this show was great and the female lead (Andy Allo) in it is hot.

    Roadkill on BBC is very well acted.

    Yeah bit different from the usual and a distinct lack of huge drama or action but despite all that, extremely watchable and catchy.

    Felt it faded as things went on, and slipped a bit into the typical David Hare cliches.

    Mrs. Pakman and I finally got round to first series of Luther. Very watchable, even if somewhat far fetched. We like fact that episodes fairly self contained.

    Watched that first episode of The Undoing

    Didn't hate it. Love Nicole Kidman, though she is starting to look old (he says as a fully grey haired man these days)

    Full Frontal was good but by no means a must see.

    Hugh Grant, in a break from tradition, is playing the role of Hugh Grant so far.

    I hope it goes somewhere.

    I watched a couple of decent shows on Netflix. Sneakerheads is just funny LA urban sports culture comedy, and the Playbook is a show that features a top coach each episode, a great insight into the minds of greats like Jose Mourinho, Patrick Mouratoglou and Jill Ellis

    @MiketheSnow I have bailed half way through S3...may revisit after a while, but seemed very samesy for me.

    Half way through Haunting of Bly Manor.

    Is decent story, not as good as Hill House in the creepy side, couple of episodes are tough to get your head around whats going on, although figured out part of it early enough (re Miles & Flora)
