Just watched Stan and Ollie the film staring Steve Coogan , thoroughly enjoyable

Agree bigron its a good film. Growing up as a kid I used to love watching laurel and Hardy. Proper slapstick comedy.

Reruns of Reggie Perrin starting next week on BBC4. I didn't get where I am today by not recommending classic sitcoms.

I watched an episode of Seal Team yesterday, shockingly bad.

Breeders s2 and its not very good.

Also finished Meh of Easttown, whats the fuss about? Winslet doing an accent?

Anyone seen Pacific
If so was it good & worth a watch ?

Yes, yes.

Just finished "Darkness: Those who Kill".

Brilliant.

That Time on the Beeb is grim but gripping stuff.

Mrs Spike and I recently started Breaking Bad and are watching 2 or 3 episodes each night. Now about halfway through the final series. Very much enjoying it.

Gawd knows why it took me so long to get around to it - I was late to the Game of Thrones party too. I blame Mrs S for poo-pooing my TV suggestions until I wear her down.

Loved season one so disappointing to read. Not worth it?

You got the prequel treat of Better Call Saul to do too, Spike?

Next on the agenda - although she's already saying stuff like "I don't hold with spin-offs" ! We'll get there. And there's a movie too I think.

Yesterday I watched the film entitled Yesterday.

I can recommend it solely for the vicious dig at Oasis which was amusing.

Still not watched either .
1 day maybe

Train to Busan

A stormer of a Korean zombie-flick, wherein the zombies are upwardly mobile in the style of Usain Bolt..

Last chance U basketball. Enjoyed it better than the last American football one.

Also gregg Wallace big weekend or something. I hate him but can’t help watch him. Literally a laugh a minute at how cringe he is.

This time with Alan partridge..hit and miss. Laugh out loud at some and other bits must have sounded funny on paper but miss the target. It’s no ‘I’m’.

Motherland...enjoyed this Season. Always funny.

Inside no9...really enjoying this season. Engrossing half hours

Just seen the 4th Predator film, "The Predator", if there is any way to kill off a fantastic franchise then this film is how to do it. I have never seen
a more shockingly rank, bad imitation of truly brilliant franchise than this one. Like Alien 1 and 2 and Predator 1 and 2 both excellent films the
later ones, trying to cash in, are always rubbish.

Just started Sweet Tooth and Loki. Think i'll enjoy both.

I was watching Ragnarok

Started Time

Frank of Ireland is a decent watch on 4od, if you're into Irish comedy.

Time was solid if a bit dramatic to play to the oh how terrible Guardian crowd

Right - Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul done - very much enjoyed both and looking forward to the last series of BCS.

Have now started The Handmaid's Tale - (I know, late again). It's great.
