    Has anyone else watched Jupiter's Legacy?

    I decided to watch it knowing that Netflix had already cancelled the series. There was a lot of stuff happening behind the scenes in making this show, mainly the showrunner leaving after Netflix baulked at the price per episode he wanted to make the 8-episode series. The end result was still a series over budget and behind schedule as a lot of work had to be done in post-production.

    The show itself had promise but the pacing was too slow.

    I watched it do, was just disappointed after a promising first couple of episodes.

    Just realised last night I have finished The IT Crowd.

    I really liked it, as with any comedy, some stuff is a bit meh, but overall, really liked it, were a few eps which were hilarious!

    Onto S3 of Blackadder, and is some funny stuff, but not as good as I hoped/expected.

    I may have a look at the original Office (given I now dont mind Gervais) Teachers or Black Books.

    @taniwharugby we're watching teachers currently, not as good as i remembered, quite dated and the characters become straight up unlikeable

    @taniwharugby original Office is absolute gold.

    Falty Towers always worth a rewatch while you're figuring out what else to watch.

    Black books is classic. Takes a little while to hit it’s straps but has a brilliant purple patch.
    As for S3 Blackadder have you not got to the dictionary episode?

    Brit one best IMO but can understand that the cringe factor may hit harder for brits.
    Gervais can be a hard watch when you don’t know whether to laugh at him or think he’s a sad human.

    British version shits all over the American version.

    However that’s not always the case, check out this horrific Pommy version of Married with Children……

    I know. Who takes 12 cans of beer out of a fridge and doesn’t drink a single one ?

    I can’t believe I actually watched that much of it.

    Might have been a flop too. The best TV series are the ones that leave you wanting more.

    Yep. Good one to watch with the wife. Has some chuckles and doesn’t try too hard.

    Hard part will be deciding whether to watch as it comes out or wait to binge.
    Best show of 2020.

    Jack Irish would be one of the better shows that has come out of Oz TV over the last few years

    Yeah it’s quite good fun if you leave your brain at the door. The amount of bullshit situations he got out of was just ridiculous.
