    Watched about 7 minutes of the first episode of The Fix and was ready to kill myself.


    Does Katherine Ryan have something on Jimmy Carr that's why she keeps getting work especially on his panel shows.



    Did Jimmy #MeToo her? Now that is the reason we all have to suffer as well.

    I've watched a few episodes of this and have found it pretty funny so far. Katherine Ryan is easily as good as any of the other comedians doing the rounds on these shows, I really don't get the criticism aimed at her.

    I got a mail for a free month return which I used seems to be the SD quality and 1 device but have 2 €50 gift cards now I used one already but was wondering what streaming quality they are? Anyway of finding out I'm still 3 weeks with the free month thanks.

    Katherine Ryan is very funny. And she takes on some heavy targets. There's a large group of people who won't find her funny as she's female.

    This show is a miss though.

    Anybody watching Perfume? If you like dark European drama, you'll like this.

    Yikes you weren't exaggerating when you said it was dark!

    I thought it was decent enough. Not fantastic but definitely watchable

    I enjoyed Bandersnatch, and while I still prefer to have a story just told, rather than stop and have choices, and I also thought the plot was not as interesting as most other Black Mirrors, what WAS very interesting was being made to consider how actions and decisions can alter our lives so much.

    But some of the choices were odd, and there was only ever 2 (sometimes one was quite extreme, like committing murder, where the other one was do nothing) I suppose that was the point tho - the illusion of choice.

    One thing I think BM relies on too much is having the aftermath or exposition of an episode played out on news programs. Lot of shows do that but its kind of lazy and tired by now. I enjoyed the 80sness tho, when done right it always strikes a chord with me, having been born in 1980.

    Watched the Katherine Ryan stand up last night and really enjoyed it, very funny.

    Just my own two cents on Bandersnatch- enjoyed the concept, novelty and technical execution of the idea, but it didn't work for me at all in the end.

    Was just massively confusing and the editing (for obvious reasons) felt, and was, all over the place.

    Great on paper, but not much fun to watch.

    Another recommend for this. Pulls few punches. Well acted and solid storyline.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,860 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    Mentioned before here but some stuff deserves to be mentioned again

    Only saw 3 episodes so far but cant wait to be home for the rest of Dirty Money tonight.

    I did have a giggle at the news report of Dad's murder, post chopping up, with the headline "Dad found in 8 bits"

    One thing I’ve discovered recently thanks to Netflix, Friends does not age well.

    Didnt notice that , clever enough pun/reference.

    One whack from a skinny kid with an ashtray being all it took seemed a bit unrealistic to me.

    Just finished watching You, really good show but a few things I can’t understand
    Beck is dead and found murdered yet Paco saw her screaming in the basement telling him to open the door that Joe is going to kill her, now I know he knows this is true as he saw him kill his mums evil boyfriend and closed the door probably out of some weird loyalty for Joe killing his mums boyfriend but surely a kid couldn’t keep a big secret like that, let a young woman like Beck be killed and not say anything to even his mum and then not be even freaked out one bit by Joe, fair enough if he only ever knew Joe to kill only the step dad but to kill his girlfriend and not say anything, I really don’t buy that.
    And what evidence did he frame on the therapist guy, ya he buried the bodies in his back garden, how did he do that without being seen? How does he transport these bodies from a shop on a Main Street to his car without being seen? It’s pretty unrealistic.

    I took it that Paco would stay quiet out of loyalty to Joe.Paco had a fairly ****ty life and Joe seemed to be his only friend and maybe a bit of a mentor to him.Similar to the way Mooney and Joe were.

    There was a back entrance to the book store so he could use that to move bodies from the basement.Still hard to move bodies around undetected but not impossible.

    In my house it's never been off the air between channel four(do they still have it?) and one of the Comedy Central channels is always showing a block of eight episodes.
    It's absolute dross.
    Hard to understand how such an average sitcom was that big a part of the zeitgeist.
