Anyone watching Hinterland?

I started watching that with my parents during lockdown and we just finished it this week.It's not bad but it felt reaaaaallly slow. It's well conceived and I enjoyed the interlinking elements.It wouldn't be a great sales pitch for wales though.

I watched"The Wrong Missy" last night expecting it to be fairly awful but I was mildly surprised. I was sync watching it with friends(we all press play at the same time and text as if we're watching it together) so we knew it'd be an easy watch. David Spade was likeable and I laughed a few times.

Not sure when I gave up on modern family but it was a long long time ago, certainly a case of diminishing returns.

I stick with it till the end last weekend
But the last two years were AWFUL (as was the finale )
2 seasons before that not much better
Might rewatch the first few though as it was excellent

The episodes are too short for Netflix but I thought Season 1 was marvellous.

Anyone who likes reality tv shows, I’d recommend selling Sunset. Re real estate agents in LA/ Hollywood.

Lot of dross in June.

Yep, not much to look forward to IMO.

Dark is back, although I'll have to finish season 2.. which means I'll probably need to rewatch season 1.

Also gave up on 13 reasons why a few episodes into s3. Might watch the recap and give final season ago

The Karate Kid thought
YES
Wax on Wax off
Danielson

Watched the American, such a great movie.... I can easily see why people hated it though ....... a throw back to movies of the 60/70s... the movie takes its time to build tension

F is for Family Season 4! Nice!
