I couldn't get into it at all.
Yeah I’d say it’s a marmite show. You either love or hate.
The Banshees of Iniserin is pretty good. Watched it last night.
I liked Severance. Didn't live up to all the recommendations I got for it though. Kinda meandered for a lot of it but the last episode was brilliant.
My wife started watching Severance a while back. I didn’t like it at all for the first half of the season. I couldn’t understand why she was watching it at all. But it came good in the second half and by the last episode I was hooked. Wouldn’t have bothered with it myself initially but glad that she stuck with it tbh.
I finished watching Jack Ryan season 3 last night and while it was entertaining enough to keep me in for all 8 episodes, if you told me it was written by an AI I'd believe you
I should really be target audience for that show as I've read most of Tom Clancy's books and the Rainbow Six books amongst others within his Jack Ryan umbrella but really struggled with it. I gave up on season 2 but got through season 3 mostly because I was dying with the flu and stuck in bed.
You are spot on, it's completely formulaic and riddled with continuity errors and plot holes. "Jack Ryan" is also a complete placeholder, It's Jason Bourne without the baggage and in no way resembles the Ryan character from the books or movies.
Last year was solid for TV shows all the same. First episode of "The Last of Us" was very enjoyable so will get stuck into that. I'm also enjoying the Mayor of Kingstown which is a lot better than it's critical reception would have you believe.
The opening for the Last of Us was fantastic and the rest of the episode was pretty great too. I never played the game but am considering getting it when it comes out on PC in March
Where is best to catch the 6ns games in Belfast? I'll be up there for the first round but haven't a breeze where to go.
Very good film.
Latest episode of The Last Of Us was absolutely incredible
It was very well written and exceptionally well acted but hard to watch and quite upsetting. If you've been through a painful loss it was a piece of cinema that drilled down a bit and resonated with a realism that was cutting.
There is a companion podcast that comes out each Monday that is worth listening to as well
It was unexpected and very, very good. Really quality tv.
What streaming service is it on? You can’t get HBO in Ireland yet?
Its on Now TV
Sky carry all the HBO content in Ireland.
Sky Glass is the business.
On boards on my phone, I constantly see a notification, despite having already looked at the post in question (say, if someone had quoted me).
Is anyone else experiencing this? Doesn't happen on desktop.
Same
Congratulations! You are now my eternal notification! :D
You have to click on the notification itself. Reading the post doesn’t register.
Same, always one notification showing
Don't have that issue myself.
But I think that's mainly due to never saying anything insightful enough to be quoted on 😊
Very true 😆
Ah sh1t!!!
Hi all,
After a couple of months of high posting volume and a lot of rugby watching, I imagine I won’t have the time for as much of either for the next while as I’m really glad to say my wife gave birth to our son and hopefully a future Leinster and Irish out half on Thursday morning!
(Who am I kidding, a 60 year old Johnny Sexton will probably still be hanging around even then).
Absolutely delighted.
Brilliant news. Congrats FtD.
Disappointing lack of stats on the midwife's delivery speed and your own significant involvements though, I have to say
😂😂😂
I played a similar role to POM against Australia last November; hung around on the wing, grimaced a lot, minimal actual involvements and yet still everyone was congratulating me afterwards and telling me I did great (while my teammate did the heavier lifting!) 😉
Congrats bud...great news.
Get him used to your roaring at the TV asap. 😊
