    I've watched the first two episodes and I've got mixed feelings. I feel there's a lot wrong with the story so far, particularly the Irish angle.I've read some very critical reviews and I can't disagree with what they're saying. But, I have to admit I really enjoyed watching it despite finding fault. I like the characters (especially Dante and Bardon), I like the whole style of it, and I love the music, which is why I decided to watch it in the first place.

    Going to give Huset (prisoner) a go

    Lead actress from The Killing(danish version )is in it

    Apparently Ripley is not as good as some reviews suggest so might can that one

    Have to third or fourth Kinnamin in the Killing, superb.

    Coma which aired on C5 a few weeks back was a huge step up from their usual fare.

    The Jason Watkins and Jonas Armstrong scenes are very well done, funny, tense and you feel sorry for Watkins. How do you say no to the guy who nobody says no to!

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    Enjoyed the first 2 eps of the Colin Farrell new one on Apple. I'm in.

    Ripley is worth a watch, black and white, great shots of Italy. Based on the books.

    Yeah, very slow paced and not for everyone but beautiful and enthralling.

    Has this also got Ben Kingsley in it, he's brilliant in the film version.

    I think it's seriously good. So different from everytrhing else.

    Somebody mentioned Girls5eva somewhere before, and there doesn't seem to be a thread on it. Billed as a musical comedy, the "musical" part put me off straightaway, but I happened to see the trailer, and it seemed quite funny. I've watched the first three and really like it.

    I got a Tina Fey vibe off it, then noticed she's one of the many exec producers.

    3 seasons of it, so lots to forward to.

    I did a binge on The Cleaning Lady, Arman is a big loss, complex but a character with heart, well played by actor, RIP, and great chemistry with leading lady Toni

    Anyone watching The Vanishing Triangle on VM1, was tonight the finale, if so what a let down and the era was confusing me as was not sure if 90s or 00s and why a gay detective, more wrong than right and it had a good premise for an Irish drama thriller that started out good



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭Hippodrome Song Owl


    I watched it. It was good in parts and kept me watching, but a lot of flaws. I didn't see any issues with the setting - it seemed right for mid-90s to me. I thought the acting was quite good and the basic premise of the story was interesting. It lost its way though and the ending was very unsatisfactory. I really disliked the obvious reference to and embellishment of a real case though, it was disrespectful and unnecessary.

    I've just finished watching Screw. I thought it was brilliant. Very disappointed to read it has apparently been cancelled, especially with series 2 ending with a cliffhanger.

    I started watching "The Veil" recently. I think it's a French program but it's excellent. Lot's of tension and great scenes and acting in it. Only two episodes so far. My only worry is that they have kind of rushed it a bit and am not sure now where the next episodes will go as after the first two the whole plot of it seems to change. I could be wrong. Be interesting to see.

    Murder in Provence is quite enjoyable on VM3 with Endeavour actor Roger Allan



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,931 ✭✭✭Brief_Lives


    I started watching the Changeling. I'm not sure whats going on, it's slow but its very interesting.



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,890 ✭✭✭OmegaGene


    parish, I’m 3 episodes in and it’s very good so far
