What are you Watching Today Part 2

[Dunners]

Nobody

Good, old fashioned, shoot/f*ck 'em up thriller.

[StillSpike]

We binged on the miniseries Black Bird last week - thought it was really very good and the 2 leads, Taron Egerton and Paul Walter Hauser were superb - really really great acting - also, I think, Ray Liotta's last outing - again, a lovely performance.

Sounds great

"Here to serve"

[Dunners]

Picard (the Star Trek spin off). But season 3 only.

The first two seasons are cack, full of typical tropes used by studios in a ham-fisted attempt to appeal to what they think "modern audiences" want while avoiding the hard work of proper plot and character writing. But for season 3 they appear to have had an epiphany and though, "f*ck it, let's make something that is actually good!"

And they have. It's only 3 episodes on so far, but it's like proper Star Trek. And you can pretty much watch it without having to watch the first two seasons (although you may well enjoy those if that's your thing).

^For those of you who enjoyed the TNG series back in the day, this is definitely worth watching. Episodes 7 and 8 went off the boil a bit, but episode 9 was something else. If you absolutely have to cynically exploit fandom nostalgia, then that was an excellent example of how to do it right.

I am continuing to enjoy the latest series of Succession (so glad Roman said what he did) and Barry

Is he still pre-grief or is it time for him to get Kendal's grief guy?

[The Mindsweep]

Enjoyed watching The Resort on Now TV. Just 8 short, around 30 min, episodes. Not too taxing but kept me engaged throughout. Likeable characters too.

Started Barry last week, how is it not much more well known? I just got up to the s2 episode with the invincible man and his feral daughter

[Long slender neck]

That episode is one of the greatest 30 mins of recent TV, imo.

Agree. It’s kind of jaw dropping how they just lean right into it from the moment she goes on all fours and hisses. And the scene in the car before the drugstore is just perfect

[Proposition Joe]

Really enjoyed S1 of Barry, need to watch the rest at some point.

Now MAFS is over (stoked for Melinda and Layton), trying Colin from Accounts. Promising first ep.

[Max B Gold]

I watched Irvine Welsh's "Crime" the other week. The Bill it is not and it was a bit rubbish but I was impressed by the Begby like detective.

[The Mindsweep]

My money's on Greg to be the last one standing in the new Waystar world.

[Constanza]

I'm team Kendall but hard to predict. Incredible tv.

[Long slender neck]

It looks like Roman is out of the running. I'm wondering if Kendalls secret could still come back to haunt him?

[Omygawd]

I like Shiv and would.

Colin from Accounts was magnificent telly. Big fan.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Rain dogs - about halfway through but incredibly dark and depressing but slightly addictive and brilliantly acted.

Jury Duty - mad idea but brilliant and easy tv. The last episode is phenomenal.

[Proposition Joe]

Rain Dogs - is that the Daisy May Thingy one?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Yeah that’s it

[Omygawd]

The Last King of the Cross on Sky, marvellously brutal. The Aussies do some good stuff like The 12 and Jack Irish (I wanna be one of the bar blokes….) but the shows and films show they have a comparatively small pool of Actors.

How many of our dramas have you watched? Martin Compston, Siobahn Finneran, Lee Ingelby and Nicola Walker pop up in every second series.

Oh and Keeley Hawes too.

[BIGRON]

Just watched the Premier league darts finals night , Michael Van Gerwin is something else

Plenty, thanks for asking.
