I usually don't quote myself. I find it extremely vulgar. However I just watched
s01e08 of TLOU. Wow, hard core.

And then I thought, the next show I will watch, Mando, will also be Pedro Pascal. So 66%
of my entertainment tonight is from a guy named Pedro.

And if you delete one letter from his name you will get the subject matter of
s01e08. Haha.

I'm plowing through season 1 of 'Taxi' atm. I haven't watched it in over 40 years. Funnier than I remember, and I'm enjoying it way more than when I was 18 or so. I actually remembered the 'blind date' episode where Alex met the large lady from the message center. That part of my brain must still be functioning nicely  :smiley:

Thanks for the spoiler.  Why do people feel the need to do that, I'll never know.

*POSSIBLE SPOLIER ALERT*

I just started watching this a week ago when I found it on that pretty cool site Van the Man mentioned, moviejoy or whatever.  It's good.  I also wondered why they had to have the two gay guys subplot.  It didn't add anything to the story.  Once I realised it was just checking a box that seems to be required in all new shoes I just started dragging that cursor along.  It was a sweet love story but completely unnecessary. I just finished episode six last night.  Nice to see Graham Greene from Dances With Wolves make an appearance.  I was bummed when they comically had him blown up by a stick of dynamite he held onto for too long.

Talking about spoiler people, I had a guy pull up outside my work office as I was setting up my video player to the TV. It was an All Black rugby game that I had recorded overnight and was going to watch at work on the Sunday morning.
He looked at what I was doing, and I said that I was going to sit back and watch the game. You know what he said... "Damn shame the ABs got beaten by so much"...cnut!

But yeah, I agree...TLOU is one out of the box bar the hairy old gay guys.

I would agree. It’s not TLOU canon and that makes it great. It explores humanity and choices, just like Joel’s in the last episode. Although, his choice was pre-determined.

Not this fella. I stated before that I understood it upon reflection but still did not enjoy that particular story. Now if you are talking the final of season 1...yeah...great! Followed closely by most of the others.

Just watched Season 1 and 2 of The wrong side of the tracks. Spanish series, I really enjoyed it.

On my list to watch. Good to see Jack Bauer back again.

Edit: Just watched the first 2 episodes and its no "24" but still really good. Takes a bit of time for the story to pick up and develop but it sures leave you hanging on which way the plot is going.

I have been sidetracked from The Last of Us by the return of Drive to Survive on Netflix.  I have never paid much attention to or followed F1, but I really enjoy this series.

I watched episode 1 of the new BBC series 'Great Expectations' last night. Very good viewing. I'm going to watch the second tonight. No need to explain the plot  :smiley:

Reacher Season 1.

Some moments (minus 3 of the best): https://youtu.be/njCsDEl3Hts

The Night Agent

Political Spy drama on Netflix. An FBI agent working in the White House mans the phone when US spies want to call in for help. Pace moves along nicely and has enough to keep you guessing. Am 3 episodes in out of 10.

Very binge-watchable.

Cheers Savant! Already on my Netflix to watch list but nice to know that it's a decent show. I'll save it for a rainy weekend.

1/ I turned Avatar 2 into a TV series. At 192 minutes it is too
long to watch all at once, so I have turned it into a four part
miniseries of 48 minutes each.

2/ I installed "The Last of US Part 1" on my PC thinking this
will be great after watching the TV show. It was  an absolute
dumpster fire of cut scenes. Cut scenes are not gaming. This
game was then unceremoniously deleted from my system.
