What telly progs are you bingeing on?

Still on All Of Us Are Dead, here. Just coming into the home straight. Twelve one hour episodes is too long, but it’s very well made. Genuinely quite grim as well, which I didn’t think zombie stuff could get to me with any more, but there you go. 

Inventing Anna is next up.

Just watched the first episode of Peacemaker, I laughed a lot more than I though I would. Not sure where it will go story wise,  but definitely worth a watch.

Looking forward to watching the Yellowstone (love this programme) spin off, 1883

I’m surprised with all the constant Simpsons memes on here there’s no talk about Disenchantment. I really enjoyed season 4, it’s not hit the same highs as either The Simpsons or Futurama but it’s the long form story telling really has me engaged. I keep trying to figure out if a joke is a throwaway comment or a hint for something to come seasons later.

Just watched the first episode of This is going to hurt. Really good - but hardly a good advert for anyone wanting to work in the NHS (or indeed anyone thinking of having a baby)!

Have you watched Bodies? It's from mid 2000's, when this is set, and is very similar, except more exciting and grim. It's brilliant, and on iplayer. You'll love it if you like this.

Did AP BIo, The Tick and the new season of Curb recently (all good).

Now enjoying Arrested Development. Struggling with Parks and Rec (but apparently it gets better from the second season on).

That's a blast from the past, I enjoyed it too, it's an early series from Jed Mercurio, who created Line of Duty.

am quite enjoying Reacher with the big fella...(after finding out it was a thing on here 👍)

Is it just me though, or does he walk like his shoes are 2 sizes too small..??

Screw was quite bingeable. Also Clickbait.

Currently working thorough Disenchantment, Inventing Anna, McCartney and Snowpiercer.

I can’t watch the Snowpiercer series after a friend described it as CSI: Train.

I've only ever seen a couple of CSI:Wherever episodes so can't really comment, but aren't they a bit formulaic?

CGI Train definitely.

Sean Bean's character is really sinister (and not dead. Yet...).

Watching the fear index 

 

Strange but good

Just watched 4 episodes of The Curse. Brilliant.

Big Mick is one of the best characters on TV for a while, his voice cracks me up!

Peacemaker has been fun.

It also has one of the coolest title sequences ever. I never skip it. i sometimes watch it twice.

[BlueDaze]

The Beeb had Hot Chip 'Over and Over' as their backing track on the Winter Olympics highlights today...

Wouldnt you love that job.!?

Would be a great job.   It’s amazing how many obscure tunes you hear as backing on tv .  

As for the winter olympics surely the curling should have had Roll away the stone by Mott the Hoople?

Started the new Apple show Severance tonight. Only two episodes available so far. Really bizarre, in a good way. 

[deepkittycaz]

I've just finished the HBO adaptation of Station Eleven. Does take some detours from the book, but it's a joy to watch. Really well done.

Half way through inventing Anna. Good watch. Fascinating how con artists work. I know it's wrong but I am impressed by her.

+1, it was an enjoyable ride. Not sure it should get a second season. unsure where it would go.

[BlueDaze]

I finished Reacher S1… pretty good.

so whilst on Prime I discovered Bosch (8 years late I appreciate…🙄)

This looks really promising (1 episode in).. 

Titus Welliver looks spot on for Harry Bosch.

[fred quimby]

Finished inventing Anna. Really enjoyed it, and a mention of Glastonbury as well

[Boomtowner]

After the plaudits on here, started watching Yellowjackets last night. Two episodes down and I'm hooked, shame I can't just burn through them on my own, especially with Mrs Boomtowner wanting to watch Great British Menu tonight and the Liverpool game being on on Wednesday.
