Watched The Dry over the last few days. Not amazing, but definitely not bad, genuinely funny in places, a little too "chick-lit" in others.

Watched The Curse with Nathan Fielder and Emma Stone. Well, they're in it. We didn't watch it together. Good, weird and awkward as fuck at times. Truly bizarre ending.

First ep of new True Detective was well cool. Fairly Lynchy in parts.

Gonna wait 'til it finishes and binge it, just 6 episodes this series so it won't be too long a wait.

Finished Monarch: Legacy Of Monsters at the weekend. It was grand, a bit of kaiju action but mainly the human side of things. Passed the time alright, Kurt Russell looked like he was having great craic throughout.

Watched the first episode of Yellowstone there. It was alright, worth following up.

Yellowstone is fuckin god awful, but I did watch a few seasons of it.

Yeah, I got I into it too, going out for a fag in the break and it feeling like Alaska outside helped too

Couldn't quite get into it. The Rehearsal was amazing if you've seen that

Really enjoyed E1 of the new True Detective. But yeah, strong Lynch/The Thing vibes in places

I can understand that. It's bizarre. Watched the first ep of The Rehearsal but forgot about it. Will go back to it.

Any of ye know The Night Manager? 6 part British spy thriller with Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie, and Olivia Coleman. I'd never heard of it but saw it on Prime there and gave first ep a go. Fairly class, looking forward to getting further into it.

I watched 3 or 4 episodes but lost interest in it TBH. Thought it was very overacted. I'm in the minority though, it's well regarded.

I watched 2 episodes and gave up.

Threw on that new one on Netflix, Boy Swallows Universe.
Book is pretty big deal down under, apparently.
The story is a little hokey, but an enjoyable watch all the same. Light-hearted at times but takes a few sinister twists along the way.
Good cast and performances from a heap of Aussie familiars. The fella playing the kid in it was great.

Late to the party with this one however very much enjoying 'Louder Milk' currently on Netflix. Ron Livingston playing a similar character to that of Peter from Office Space. Decent soundtrack throughout.

Watched the first episode yesterday myself, after seeing the coffe shop/voice clip a few times. A promising start.

Watched it last year due to seeing that coffee shop scene. Enjoyable but not at all spectacular was what I thought.
