Horrible Histories Season 6
This hilarious series, based on the best-selling books, proves that sometimes the most memorable moments in history are also the least pleasant

The one with Helen Hunt? I enjoyed it, it's a nice pulpy mystery/thriller with lots of plot twists.

Cool will definitely check it out thanks

Is it scary?

Naw not really it's quite fun though and a few twists and turns alright

Have watched 7 episodes of Highway to Heaven. Oh the Nostalgia. Loved it back in the day. It's so harmless, but heartwarming.

Just finished series 1 of Umbrella Academy, and here to recommend it those pretty much tired of superhero stuff, like I am. I had watched the first episode and thought it interesting, and different enough from the usual Marvel and DC stuff to make it worth a punt, but decided to leave it at that. A friend of mine with similar tv interests said I should retry it, and I'm really glad I did. It has its pacing issues etc, but its amusing wild storyline just gets better and better as an ensemble piece, with lots of lovely touches.
Really looking forward to series 2, which apparently is even better.

I’ve watched 3 episodes and I’m a bit lukewarm on it (ep 3 probably the best of them) should I stick with it?

Hunts face is a bit distracting but its a clever enough thriller. Defo worth a watch.

I watched I See You a couple of weeks ago. It is cleverly done. You’re not really sure what exactly is going on for the majority of the movie, and then it comes together.
I thought it was really good.
And ya, good comment about Helen Hunts face. I presume that is plastic surgery gone wrong, and not deliberate wooden acting.
There are lots of plot holes in the film, but nothing too obvious to act as a distraction.
