    Think I'll try Unbelievable or Don't **** with cats tonight. Decisions decisions.

    Both are overrated for me
    Don’t **** with the cats less so
    It’s good
    But it all could have been done in one long episode imo

    Yeah, real drawn out Netflix job, 90 minutes stretched out to 3 hours. Grand if you get the flu n are off!

    I don't want to ruin it for you, but when you finish it you'll realise it could've been two hours long and been much better.

    Finished it this evening. I disagree completely with your idea it could be 2 hours long and better. I felt every minute of it was important and cutting it down to 2 hours would have done serious injustice to the amount of time and effort that went into the investigation. It was important to show how all of that, the dead ends, the endless paperwork, waiting for results from other places etc. etc.

    Obviously everyone enjoys and appreciates different things but I thought it was a fantastic piece of work and would recommend it.

    While not exactly the most original synopsis in the world, I have heard good things about this - currently 100% on RottenTomatoes.

    Only You is... grand. It’s well-made and the two leads are great. But I could never shake the sense it was a film I’d seen many times before. It’s an emotional study of a young(ish) couple experiencing unexpected and draining turbulence... and that’s it. Take it on those terms and it’s effective, and maybe might speak more to those who’ve had similar experiences :)

    Mark Kermode really seemed to like Only You when he reviewed it on his podcast with Simon Mayo...

    Finished season 2 of "You". Its a bit of fun when you dont take it too seriously however much of the season almost felt like a copy paste job.

    The last few episodes took an interesting direction. Not sure I can say much more without giving away the plot!

    I'd rather if they didnt do a 3rd season though. The premise is already wearing a little thin

    Trailer for S2 of Sex Education, coming next week-ish. The first series was a really pleasant surprise for me, very funny but with lots of heart and great performances.

    https://twitter.com/NetflixUK/status/1214562563582648322?s=19

    That looks like Anne-Marie Duff with Maeve, possibly playing her mum?

    We watched this, on your recommendation Higgins and we weren't disappointed. What an incredible story! Unbelievable really.
    I strongly suspect there was something very dodgy about the family.

    The Imposter is insane . . If it happened in a movie you’d think it’s very far fetched. A very compelling watch.

    Just to be sure you're looking for the right thing even. There's a few other things with similar titles

    Looked like someone half remembered Buffy and tried to make similar. Which, in itself, isn't a negative...
