so might have to get Paramount+
Sadly my year of Paramount for $7 is ending next month. Although TBF I think I only watched 1 series (The Offer) and 1 movie on it. But my mate watched a few series and wendyball which he left on the still viewing list which nearly made me revoke his privileges.

You haven't watched 1883?

Just finished The Newsreader on BBC iPlayer. 6 Ep focussing on the fictional workings of an Aussie news channel in the 1980s as it covers actual events like Azaria Chamberlain, Chernobyl, the AIDS crisis etc
Nostalgic and v enjoyable. Great music and shot really well. Recommended.

@Bones 1 ep into Resort, like so far
@taniwharugby speaking of Taron - watched Kingsman with the kids Friday, we all loved it. Tried K2 Sunday, bloody awful!!!
yeah, dont know what happened with Kingsman 2, they killed off or dropped all the foils too the "mad camp stuff"...really disappointed

I don't know how many are watching Westworld but it was the finale of S4 last night.
##spoiler
It's hard to know how S5 unfolds but they've killed off a lot of the main and supporting characters, or have they. If the former is true, then some of my favourite characters have been given anti-climatic deaths.It looks like we're back in Westworld again.

It's not an easy watch, that's for sure - makes you grateful to be living in first world twentieth century though!

I've not seen the prequel, The Kings man, any comments?
K1 is one of my favourite films ever, K2 was arse
-
@Machpants i thought K3 was better than K2...but still nowhere near K1, I thought the premise was good but failed to deliver
-
Sandman anyone?
watched the first episode last night, different...will keep watching

2 and 3 both fell into the trap of a weak storyline to link action set pieces. 1 actually had a story to follow
-
@Crucial agreed, What little story K2 had also involved killing of a lot of what theyd set up in K1 which i didn't like
K3 seemed to have a cool premise from the one kind of serious monologue in K1 about a lot of wealthy families having lost their heirs and wanting create something to stop another great war...and then its just a hare brained plot that accidentally forms the Kingsman...missed opportunity

@Nepia said in TV Serieseseses:
I liked K2. It just took the silliness of the premise and ran with it. I laughed quite a lot when watching it. I thought Elton was hilarious. I liked the premise of K3 but don't think they nailed the execution.
yep agree, Elton was very good, but was not nearly as good as one. K3 was an interesting idea that started ok and lost the plot even further without the intentional silliness as it went along.., IMDB tends to agree as well
I think the Alex Rider series was the closest thing that reminded me of K1 as a Tv series, wasn't too bad either

Oh I agree it wasn't as good as one, but better than the kicking it's getting in the thread I think.
I've seen that Alex Rider series when scrolling through Amazon but have never thought it looks interesting enough to add it to my scroll list.
On the subject of Amazon their new update to a Netflix style interface might look better but it's laggy as fudge to use and gets stuck way too often. It's almost rivalling Binge for shittiest streaming app.
