    Where the hell is Black Mirror season 5? Brooker said it was "imminent-ish" a month ago.


    Maybe we are living it!

    I was re-watching Fifteen Million Merits from the first season last night and thinking the same thing.

    I watched first episode, didn't really grab me. I was intrigued by the "korean mythology" premise, but it seems pretty generic zombies.

    A series that took good myths form around the world and did them in one/two episodes would be cool. Norse mythology, greek, african, indian, native american etc.

    Hope it will arrive. Bandersnatch was very disappointing. Xmas wasn’t the same without the series, and that film with its viewer choices gimmicks didn’t satisfy me. The film was too dull compared to the 4 series’s. And then further slowed due to the viewer input, with risk of never ending. Even some choices you were told were not valid and pick again. I remember fantasy storybooks when I was a kid that did this but did it well.

    Yeah it's zombies. Some type of vampire ones that don't like the sunlight but it still has that feudal setting that I love. Already better then the entire Walking Dead

    I really enjoyed Russian Doll.
    I stopped watching The Punisher which is annoying because the first season was so good.
    I had given up on Star Trey Discovery midway through season 1 but I picked it back up again and it definitely got better so I recommend.
    Sex Education is pretty funny too if you're into a netflix spin on Skins.

    I read a book on the same topic a few years called A Kim Jong Il Production. It's an incredible story.

    I'm enjoying The Kominsky Method. Not usually much of a Michael Douglas fan, but he's great in this, my wife raves about Grace and Frankie too, so they're giving plenty of work to older actors anyway.

    Dunno when Cuckoo was added, but that's quite funny too, Greg Davies is great, as he is in most things.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    I have enjoyed Bordertown but I feel it could have been so much better. Shedding some more light on the methods of the main character rather than them just being referenced to indicate method to the madness.

    And they could have expanded some of the storylines within because they ended abruptly.

    But I somehow kinda liked it

    The Kominsky Method was a surprise for me, quite an impressive show.
    Cuckoo is great as well, would recommend.

    Series 2 of Medici is very good. Portrays in particular the Medici/Patxi family feuds in Florence in the 1400s.

    Sarajevo is also very good. Portrays the investigation into the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and the unanswered questions about it.
