@Kruse the Cheryl character actually comes right. She has completely nailed the part as is a dead ringer for a young Robyn Malcolm (well you can imagine that she is anyway).
Worth watching for the kiwiana type period memories as they wade through time. It's just really this final series that I am finding a bit difficult.
Some of the main characters are also in a phase where the overall story dictates that they aren't very likable which makes it even harder to watch. -

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.
just started watching that ourselves the other night, agreed, well acted and just a bit different
I tried to watch the Barbarians on Netflix 3 nights ago, but for whatever reason it wouldn't play.so I clicked on TQG instead.
Felt a bit strange sitting down on my own to this with a glass of red, but I kicked on. And I absolutely love it . Not sure why it resonates really, but really enjoyable.

Finished Haunting of Bly Manor.
Was ok, only thing to compare with Haunting of Hill House is they both have haunting in the title.
This is quite different, definitely very few creepy moments, is more one you need to really watch to pick up whats going on, there are hints along the way, but some episodes seem confusing at the time.

And half the cast is the same...
I thought the frights were decent and felt a bit meh at the end... the final scene or two could have been from a completely different TV show! Weird.

@Crucial And I mean spectacular. 11/10
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.
Stacked!

Season 3 of Absentia finished last night. If you are a fan of Stana Katic it is worth watching and there are enough twists in the plot and suspense to keep the viewer interested. No confirmation if the series has been renewed yet but if it is, S4 might be the last.

i am!
Finished The Haunting of Hill House last night. Not sure how i feel about it to be honest. Was great to start. Laboured a little, and then i am not sure about the ending. I think it was good? but it wasn't great.
Sticking the landing is always pretty tough

It lost me early. Never got around to finishing it.

Watching All Creatures Great and Small - UK Channel 5 - and their most popular show ever. (Channel 5 is a generally seen as a downmarket channel)
Not the sort of TV series I'd normally watch, but actually really enjoyable. Faithful to the books, beautifully shot and quite gritty in places. Added bonus is Diana Rigg playing a barmy Lady of the Manor
