Love the title, haven't heard of it til now. Unfortunately, I can barely tolerate De Grasse Tyson, but I did make it through his first reboot of Cosmos and it was worth it for 90% of the content.

Nice one for the heads up, in short!

I like him, from what I've seen. He's always paid his dues to Sagan too, and even though he doesn't have that same wistfulness of tone, I reckon he does a great job presenting.

Was there more than one season of Cosmos? I enjoyed the first one - to a point. Just the American presenter voice (like they're talking to children) put me off, but the content was interesting enough to keep me there.

just realised how much sagan looks like walter koenig

The first season is from the 80s, which is fantastic. Then the reboot came out a coupla years ago and the latest season came out in April, I think. There's a lot of CGI in this one but I guess that was inevitable with the title "Possible Worlds".

documentaries from the late 70s to the early 90s have a certain tone you just can't beat.

Ah yeah, I saw the Sagan one years ago and the first season of Tyson's version. This second season is a new one so, I gather. Might give it a look, eventually.

Got halfway through the first ep of Brave New World. Retarded.

As a sci-fi fix to get over Brave New World, started Project Blue Book. X-Files type buzz based on memoirs for some military fella back in the day. S2 starts with Roswell. Really enjoying it.

Sky Atlantic showed it all, that's where I watched it.

I must of missed it. Looks like its on my new streaming service as well. I will get around to watching it again at some stage.

Just noticed that all of The Newsroom is on Sky On Demand, if you're still looking to watch it.

Finished watching The Newsroom last night. Cheers to whomever brought it up, was excellent. My better half never seen The West Wing, so seems appropriate to start that at the weekend now.

I sae them in that order too, both excellent shows, even if the last two seasons of TWW are slightly below par.

Thanks but i'm not in Ireland so don't have Sky but a recent streaming service I signed up for has it so will watch but this service has every HBO show, Twin peaks and loads of great documentaries so it's gonna be a while before I get to it.

As for the West Wing tried to get into that years ago and thought it was terrible.


Recently finished Entourage as well saw most of them before when they use to be on RTE. It's a relaxing show to watch, Johnny Drama is brilliant but probably not a show I would rewatch again. Just have to see the movie which I have heard is shite.

Currently rewatching Six Feet Under what a show. I still think it has one of the greatest ending in the TV history right up there with the Shield.

I thought the ending of Six Feet Under was beautiful. I found the show itself grand, but ya, the ending was done really well.

Tore through the new season of The Young Offenders. Maybe not as good as S1 but it still has its moments.

Almost finished Project Blue Book. Between beer and Liverpool, it'll be tomorrow before I get to it.

I finally got around to finishing Dark season 3. What a crock of horse shit. After 2 brilliant seasons that third one was pure shitty shit.
Prune face and cats hole mouth can get fucked .
