    Haven't heard of it. Comedy or drama?

    It's a real goofy comedy. Mightn't be for most people. I'd say it's closest to Pushing Daisies in style.

    Stumbled upon a good comedy series Norsemen

    I saw it listed on Netflix months ago when browsing and thought it was just another quickly put together show trying to piggy back on the success of Vikings. Then a few weeks ago I saw a gif on Imgur that looked fun and it turned out to be Norsemen, never realised it was a comedy.

    It's a goofy comedy, but it actually gets very interesting in its approach towards the end of season 1 and the start of season 2. Starts in one place, and takes a bit of a journey.

    Also, started watching Big Mouth, am a few episodes in and really enjoying it.

    It's an animated show about young teenagers going through puberty and dealing with all the weirdness and hormones. Genuinely laugh out loud funny at parts. The male hormone monster cracks me up!

    Finished Mindhunter there, whatched it in 2 days. Thought it was excellent. It’s like Zodiac and True Detective meshed into one.

    I can see why some people wouldn’t like it, there’s no action whatsoever in it but it’s fascinating stuff if you’re into detective tv. Some great tension in parts and the soundtrack is excellent.

    Only got around to finishing Narcos S3 last night.

    Great show and the last couple of episodes was gripping, cant wait for the Mexico installment.

    Man, I’m getting sick of hearing about the continuity errors. I wish people could just get over it and enjoy this for what it is. A great f**king television show. Only five EPs in, but IMO it has the potential to be the best Star Trek show since TNG.

    Star trek discovery, am warming to it after watching the 4th episode. The story line is beginning to take shape, characters v. good. I did not like 1 & 2, the relationship between the two women really irritated me, for some reason.

    If Jason Isaacs is doing Star Trek, what about series 2 of The OA?

    Anyone else finding Star Trek Discovery a bit tedious and slow? Watched 2 episodes and it's okay, but.. not sure.

    No I'm really enjoying it and look forward to Monday's

    Just finished watching Netflix's film Wheelman starring Frank Grillo and really enjoyed it nothing new or original about it but Grillo has "It"




    How Grillo isn't a bigger star always amazes me.

    I’d be shocked if you keep that opinion. It’s an interesting idea for 30 minutes, but goes completely off the rails then.

    Maybe if you stop watching now it will save it :pac:

    I’d give it 2/10. Dire.

    So far I like Jason Isaacs. Not exactly Captain Picard, a much darker character.

    Apparently he's getting some hate from the Alt Right on the interweb.

    I have always liked J. Isaacs.. a grittier darker Captain is exactly what was needed. I like the cast so far.

    I just found episode 1 and 2 far too sweet and wholesome. Episode 3 was so much better.

    I wouldn't even put it in the same sentence as TNG.
