Dr Death on Stan
Dramatisation of a neurosurgeon in the USA who was sentenced to life imprisonment following a series of tragically incompetent spinal surgeries.
From wikipedia: He completed his residency having participated in fewer than 100 surgeries. Typically, neurosurgery residents participate in over 1,000 surgeries during residency.
Good watch and slightly concerning given medical incompetence in hospitals was the third largest killer after heart disease and cancer. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7476634/)

I have finally got around to watching Gangs of London. What a weird show. I could accept if they deliberately 'comic booked' it, like say The Boys, but to make out it is realistic? Taking the proverbial.
People getting shot half a dozen times in the back that still manage to function for the next five minutes? Exploding heads from either explosive of hollow point high velocity rounds but when the same gun shoots a main character the bullet just lodges neatly in his side?
I love the OTT violence but at least make it clear that it's all bullshit.
Oh, and it needs more titties. -
@crucial lol it was next on my watch list..will keep in mind

I agree with everything he says, but he didn't say it was bad! Worth watching.

Thanks for the warning. Will avoid.
Can't abide musicals.

The Secret
Based on a true story with James Nesbitt, who plays his role superbly, as a batishit man with absolute faith that everything he does is part of Gods plan.
A couple of avid church goers in Ireland start having an affair, get caught, stop, start again and then devise a plan (a shit one I might add) to get rid of thier respective spouses.

Walking Dead - Season 3
Episode one, taking of the gaol. Every fluffybunny would win an Olympic Games gold medal in shooting.

Oh, and it needs more titties.Yes how it has a gay orgy but no titties in its hetro love scenes astounds me.
Also gangs of London has taught me that the only way to kill a pikey/gypsy is with a head-shot. Mother f$ker Gypsies seemingly are like zombies and can function with multiple bullets in their body.
Still thoroughly enjoyable! Looking forward to season 2.
Anything else on Stan worth watching? City on a hill complete, this complete, Clarice complete…

Even that won’t always work. Tyson Fury got up from a Deontay Wilder headshot that would have killed some people.

so moving through some other series on Stan, have started Power and got through season one. I know this has been around for a while but the first chance I have got to see it.
Drug dealing/taking, night club front, frequent nudity/sex, sometimes all at same time and a few executions thrown in.. looks ok so far, although i would probably like more focus on the business, but good combo of thing I like to watch

Watched S1 of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Found this on Netflix on a wet day, quite enjoyed it!

Dr Death - Christian Slater, Alec Baldwin, Joshua Jackson, Kelsey Grammer
Good series, thought Jackson was superb as the narcissistic Duntsch, Slater was excellent too as the pushy Dr. Kirby.
American legal/medical system is messed up, all about the money!

The Twilight Zone 1959 138 Black Leather Jackets
Three strangers arrive in a small town, three men in black leather jackets in an empty rented house. We'll call them Steve and Scott and Fred, but their names are not important; their mission is, as three men on motorcycles
