    Like how you tried to sneak Google Music in there, good effort.

    I don’t mind swearing at all, in fact I like swearing, but I agree that in this instance the repeated swearing at toddlers was utterly grating and made Martin Freeman’s character too unlikeable to share any time with.

    I watched the Walking dead until it turned to utter dog ****. I’ve recently started on Fear the walking dead and I’m currently on season two. It’s making me feel a whole lot better about the current situation

    There was supposed to be a new spin-off starting a couple of weeks ago "Walking Dead: World Beyond" which was postponed because of WWC. I have no idea how you watch it in the UK (Netflix?) but the Medieval Korean Zombie Political Drama "Kingdom" is mind-blowingly good.

    Yes I’ve seen its on Netflix, I’ll give that a whirl then.

    These zombie apocalypse shows give me a constant knot in my stomach while I’m watching them, which makes current real life seem not quite as bad.

    The Tiger King is jaw droppingly good.

    The Walking Dead certainly has more bad days than good days now, though like mindless zombies we still watch it in our house while really hoping it's put out of our misery soon.

    Anyone who is into Cricket, The Test, on Amazon is pretty good.

    I like Ozark, series 3 on Netflix now. Also storing up the latest series of Better Call Saul...

    Just finished watching it and it blew my mind that it all took place. It looks like they will all get their day in court and hopefully that Carol Baskin does as well.

    I think the program is about 3 years old and they're all still free...

    The first couple of episodes it all seemed fairly harmless and lighthearted.

    After 3 episodes, it was almost hard to watch as the manipulation and exploitation at all levels became really clear. That is the case especially in regard to the animals and poorly-paid employees, who mainly seemed to accept dismal work/living conditions because they genuinely loved the animals.

    Nobody came out looking good, but at least the main protagonists chose their own fate and themselves to blame. The same can’t be said for the animals and other humans close to the situation who were basically collateral damage.

    After about 15 minutes of the first episode I said ‘so when is the weird sex **** going to start?’

    Next thing you know matey boy Doc has a harem of young women he’s basically groomed to not only service him sexually but also work for peanuts.

    You have to hand it to him, when life made him look like a lemon, he figured out a way to make lemonade.

    Doc looks like the next one to get his comeuppance.

    It's just mad, I knew a couple of things that would happen later on in the show but there was even more to come. It's just beyond mad.

    Completely agree it was a series about exploitation mainly of power and then the animals and then the employees. The husband situation was baffling to say the least.

    Am I the only one who is now into the third series of Westworld, and is still struggling to completely understand it? I find it is one of those series that is difficult to follow, but is compelling to watch so you hope all will come clear in the end :confused:

    Pretty much the same - I have all the eps ready to go and watch (it's the 4th one this weekend?) but I have no real inclination to watch it as I was so disappointed/confused at how S02 'ended'.

    It's way down the list of "things I have to watch" after (and in approx order):

    Better Call Saul S05
    Kingdom S02
    Homeland S08
    Years and Years
    Babylon Berlin S03
    Ozark S03

    Did episode 3 of Tiger King followed up by the episode of Always Sunny where Dennis and Dee’s mum dies.

    Absolutely cracking hour and a half.

    Episode 3 was all about Carol and her ex husbands disappearance wasn't it? The whole thing gets madder the more you watch it...

    Of all the crazy crazy things that happened in Tiger king, a girl losing her arm and then rushing back to work in such a litigation happy country as the US shows the incredible levels of manipulation going on.

    Yeah that’s it, a bit lighter on the laughs than the first two. She’s some character, very comfortable lying to the camera. Joe Exotic’s music video with her lookalike is incredible.

    I’m coming to it late so I’m still in series 3. I love it, I love it so much I’m rationing the episodes because I could just watch them one after the other for days on end.

    It's the Die Hard episode that gets me. Frank is the best character going.

    Season 3 is basically a hard fork in a totally different direction. Bit bizarre really.

    Smashed through season 3 of Ozark during the week. Brilliant show.

    That video was so well done. I had to double take it initially because on initial glimpse I thought it was actually her and I couldn't work out why she would be doing it!

    Quite why she is surprised anyone thinks she did it is beyond me. I mean, you just happen to have in your position a power of attorney document that specifically states "in the event of my disappearance"? Yeah, right. I'm convinced.

    Am rewatching “the long way round” in which Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman go round the world on motor bikes. Really enjoyable 7 episode watch if you’ve not seen it. Haven’t seen it for 10 years and forgot it was such an adventure.

    If the wording of that will had been used as a plot device in a drama it would be too blindingly stupid to still be realistic.
