What are you Watching Today Part 2

[The Mindsweep]

Watching the first series of the sci fi/horror FROM. and l am really enjoying it. On to series two.

Is that the one with the kid who has an accident and is given a walking stick but forgets which leg it is and doesn't limp at all.

[Max B Gold]

Binged that one a few months ago. Excellent. Recommend.

Its a west end show now.

Will it be coming to the Paisley Arts Centre?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Happy severance day to those who celebrate

[Long slender neck]

I'm rewatching S1 before I start that

Dylan: You? The king of fucks don’t trust us?
Burt: I do.




00:34:18
Burt: But people just talk about MDR. Stupid old stories, jokes even.




00:34:24
Irving: What do you mean?




00:34:25
Burt: I… It’s literally silly. Like, they say you all have pouches.




00:34:32
Irving: Pouches? Like to c-carry young?
Burt: Yes.




00:34:36
Burt: According to some, you each have a larval offspring that will jump out and attack if we get too close.

Bingo. That's the one.

Episode 1 didn't disappoint.

[Proposition Joe]

Watched the first 2 eps of American Primeval on Netflix last night. Horrible, but really good. Something about that era that always fascinates and already touching on a few things I had little idea about, such as the Mormon militias.

I was a bit disappointed actually. The gang is back together (probably too quickly) but where do they go from here? Wheres Ms Cobel? We didnt see any outies either.

[Dunners]

Season one was slow to start, with gradual revealing of the story over multiple episodes.

Finished this. Loved it, although the very end was something you could see coming an absolute mile off, which was a bit of a shame.

[Long slender neck]

Trailer looks decent actually. Did you ever watch The English ?

[Proposition Joe]

I did not. Good?

[Long slender neck]

Yep great stuff, if you're a fan of that era I think you would too. On iPlayer

3 episodes in and that woman who's banging on about getting to Cooks Spings with her son needs to learn to shut the f*ck up and do as she's told.

The horror film "Smile", it certainly made me jump a bit.

[BIGRON]

Currently having to suffer Coronation street , for some reason eeer indoors loves it

I hope I don't ruin things too much by saying this theme does continue and I may have shouted at the telly once or twice.

I'd posted that before seeeing the end of ep 3, in which F*cking Annoying Woman gets taught a lesson, only to transform into Girl Boss trope and single handedly taken down several opponents regardless of numerical and strength disadvantage.

Episode 4 confirms my fears. The injuns are all cast as the "noble savage" trope, who never knew fear, death, disease, war and suffering until the evil white people showed up.

But, thankfully for them, they have White Saviour Woman who, having spent a couple of days as their captive and witnessed her friends having their throats cut, discovers a new found respect for their "noble ways". And, what's more, they suddenly start listening to her as if she's some Oracle.

It's brilliantly shot and directed, but the writing is cringe as f*ck. I suspect a purple-haired Disney writer or two, who have recently been made redundant, were employed and they just couldn't shake off their old ways.

[Proposition Joe]

Well that's ruined it. Still, the scenery was nice.

[The Mindsweep]

I saw Pearl on the big screen when it came out and just watched it again on Netflix.

Mia Goth just owns it, she is brilliant

[Long slender neck]

Traitors S3- thought it was all sewn up but cant see them prevailing now. Wonder who will be ruthless and win with some last minute backstabbing

[Admin]

Can I just mention Departure which has just appeared on Netflix. Mrs FTC had this on a few nights ago and I can heartily recommend that you avoid this utter turdfest at all costs.

Dreadful acting with huge holes in the plotlines - not seen anything this bad since Amy Turtle left Crossroads Motel in 1977 to get some Ajax for the kitchen sink and wasn't seen again until christmas 1980.

Clearly designed for the dumbest of American audiences. Christopher Plummer died shortly after finishing in Series 1 and 2. Presumably from the shame of appearing in it.

More worryingly, Mrs FTC thought it was decent.

Having watched this all in one evening, I'd have shot her at the end of episode 2. I did like the red indian girl - mainly because she couldn't speak.

Watching S1 of Severance before S2 and knowing what's going on is making it even more enjoyable

[Long slender neck]

When does The Penguin get good? Waddling along like a 6/10 so far
