For whatever reason, can't stand Bill Hader.

I picked up the Chernobyl DVD and I'm on episode 3. Simply stunning telly.

Brilliant show, there was a podcast released the same time for it that gave a lot of extra insight into the show and the disaster that's worth a listen

Up there with Band of brothers as best stand alone season of television.

Just finished Deadwood. Could be my favourite series. Absolutely brilliant all round performances. Such a shame it was scrapped but looking forward to seeing the film as I've heard good things.

Thought S3 would be messy but I actually thought it was great.

Halfway through S3 here actually; summer threw us a big pause after S2. Enjoying third season so far too. Been thinking though, it is kinda funny and a shame that, for a show with one of the greatest ensemble casts ever put together for TV, one of the closest characters it has to a central protagonist is without doubt the weakest link in the performances: Seth Bullock/Timothy Olyphant. Can't help feeling that someone as good as literally any other member of the cast would have really lifted the whole series up yet another notch.

I see your point but I think he works well for the character.

[Ollkiller]

You're overthinking it Chris.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Washing my hands in this case! Was near beginning of S2 that my "I think that's just how the character is supposed to be!" lost the battle to her "Nah. He's annoying because he can't act, not because he's supposed to be annoying"

Ya. I always felt the same about him. Wooden as fuck in an overtly colourful cast.

Named an On Pain of Death song 'Tell Your God To Ready For Blood' after a line in Deadwood.

Finished Chernobyl last night. What a fucking nightmare of a story.

[Circlepit]

Finished House Of Cards. House of shite.
It started so well and never mind the fact that Spacey got the boot it was shit before he left.
Having said that the last season.... It was like the local community hall players tried their hand at a political show.

First season was deadly. Subsequent seasons had good parts but they fucked it with too many seasons. Should have been 2 seasons long and it would have been perfect.

Watched the National Theatre one-woman show version of Fleabag last night. So funny and a genuinely great underlying story (slightly different from the TV series). Some woman for one woman!
