Favourite TV Series

This explains why Mrs K likes it. DIP is on constant rotation here.

 

It reminds me of Swallow. Not afraid to break the law if it gets results. Bit of a maverick. Tackling graffiti and vandalism in Norwich.

 

“The capture” and “Then you run”. Are either any good ?

 

The first series of The Capture was good, the second not so much.

 

Joan is ok, set in the eighties, half decent soundtrack, nothing too heavy, reasonably entertaining for an early week night watch.

 

Thought Monsters was good at the start and the end but sagged a bit in the middle. Liked the last episode when it all unravelled with the guy from Prison Break as the prosecutor, not as good as the Dhamer one though. The next one looks promising, with Charlie Hunman playing the Monster:

Season 4 and 5 done. And I'm actually still enjoying TWD. A lot of twists, a lot of different groups. It's really interesting to see how different people deal with the walkers in different ways.

Spoiler

Season 4 and the illness was a bit boring. Glad they resloved the Govenor arc up quickly as didnt want that to drag on. Season 5 and Alexandria has been really good. Shows how season 1's innocent group were the Alexandrians and now they are the hardened guys who do whatever it takes whil the Alexandrians are innocent and clueless. Rick has gone full on, though Morgan showing up might salvage some of his morality if at least temporarily. Poor Noah. It's amazing how sometimes a death of a long time character doesn't bother you and then a small part really does.

But then Beth man. That really hit hard. I feel like I saw it coming and then it came and BAM. That was a big one.

Thought Glen was a gonner this season and then read something and spoiled future episodes for myself. Loving all the new characters though

I actually love Carol now. Hard ass. Sneaky. She played the part of the innocent and feeble woman to the Alexandrians well while being ond oc the main ringleaders to rake them down. I might actually look forward to the DD book of Carol.

I've read that a few people didn't like it for these seasons. Maybe bringe watching makes it a little better as the slow or boring episodes are soon forgotten within s day of 2 after 3 or 4 more episodes.

Still adding spoilers even though this is years old. Just in case.

 

It's a few years old, but I've just finished all 6 seasons of The Americans (on the Channel 4 app)

Really enjoyed it and a very powerful ending that I am spending most of the day thinking about.

Well worth a watch.
