After Life
Watched it all in one sitting and pretty “meh” after the first couple of seasons. Definitely not a show with a long shelf life. The quirky characters all stopped being funny at once.
I’d say it’s done for good now.
It is. Had a three season “arc”. Don’t think it was ever meant to be a comedy vehicle on the premise it started with.
This becomes more and more obvious as the shows go on. It’s an examination of grief.
I have to admit that the final series was a hard watch but I could see where he was trying to go. It all wrapped up a bit cleanly and feelgood.
Still, I liked some of the characters and it had some very good moments. Tony going to that yoga class with the instructor that kept sniffing was brilliant. -

Coogan has said that he had to think very long and hard about doing this. My guess is that the script is more about the coverup than the man character scum himself. In that respect it is good to publicise how this should never happen again.
Don't count on it. It's made by the BBC, Saville's employer, who knew about and covered up his abuse and rapes for nearly 2 decades.

Finally got round to watching Bridgerton with Mrs M.
Bit like Downton Abbey without the script-writing, acting, atmosphere, humour and entertainment-value. On the plus side, the BAME actors were at least given some of the better lines rather than the usual tick-box quota roles. Utterly dire stuff.

Good article on it's realism. Seems better than most series.
How realistic is Trigger Point? Bomb disposal experts weigh in
Is Vicky McClure's character Lana the real deal? Three bomb disposal specialists rate the pulse-pounding procedural's first episode

yeah I was thinking the same thing, although perhaps I am more accustomed to watching shit blow up in programs than reality ..that is probably their normal

@bayimports i think im just sensitive, when working in the rail corridor we have to wear hard hats the whole time, very few exceptions, and thats with nothing around to actually hit your head on....and they get to take theirs off when there are bombs around!

Ozark
Finished watching Pt 1 of S4, so only 7 more episodes to go whenever Pt 2 airs. This is one of the best Netflix shows in recent years. Julia Garner is just brilliant as Ruth.
Ooh, keep forgetting about this. Might save it for when there is more to binge

I need to go back and start S2 again. I loved S1 but couldn't get into S2 so gave it away but by reports from those that stuck with it it improves again.
