For some reason I never watched it but just watched two season of an idiot abroad. Entertaining stuff and funny as fuck.

Where is than on? Not on Netflix or Sky anyway.

Just finished the last season of Gotham. Loved it!

For a show that started off very straight laced and pretty mediocre, it evolved into pure madness for the latter 3 seasons.

Aye, fully agree. Did you start Pennyworth yet? Bruno Heller again so I reckon it could be great. Not entirely sure we need an Alfred prequel show, but whatever.

The Mandelorian trailer is out, looks like it has potential, the cinematography looks like a movie.

Been waiting for this, really hope they don't balls it up and try to force comedy bits into it etc etc

Comedy, or moreso humour, and even farce at times, was an element of what made Star Wars so cool in the first place. It's the quality of the humour that has been sadly lacking and a seriousness that doesn't match, in any way, the tone of the originals. Rogue One was visually cool but the lead actress left me cold as did many of the performances...felt like a Swedish detective story at times it was so grey. That said the overuse of humour ruined Solo. There's a balance to be struck there somewhere, the trailer looka cool, I just hope they are able to inject some fun and humanity into the whole thing.

Rogue One is I think my favourite of all the post original trilogy Star Wars movies.

Deffo, though it's not much of a compliment really  :abbath:

Not yet!
I need to catch up on a few other shows first before I head into something new.
Looks like it could be a DC version of Peggy Carter.

I wasn't mad about Peggy Carter.

I'm a coupla eps into Legion. Did you watch that? It's fairly mental for a Marvel show. Not necessarily in a good way either.

Peggy Carter was slow burner. It was slowly building and could have become something if given more time.

On the fence with Legion.
Liked season 1 for what it was.
Season 2 was hard work.

Not rushing into the new yet.
Need to psyche myself up for it.

Mindhunter season 2 amazeballs

Peggy Carter was awful, it looked cheap and the acting was either wooden or cartoony. Hayley Atwell, though. Jaysus.

I gave up on Gotham in the second season, I think. It just wasn't going anywhere, unless it picked up drastically after that.

Just finished season 5 of House Of Cards, thank christ. Poor season compared to the first two at least.

Gotham turns into a brilliant show. As John above said, it started fairly run of the mill but by the end it's whopper.

Watched Perpetual Grace. Coen Brothers feel to it in its daftness.  It's not bad story-wise, but Luiz Guzman and Ben Kingsley in particular are superb and elevate it a lot. Dunno if I'd be arsed with a S2 though.


I watched the first 2 seasons of Gotham when it came out and thought it was decent.
I can't remember fuck all of it though. I wouldn't mind getting into it again.
Would I need to rewatch it again from the start or could I just start on the 3rd season and still have a good idea of what's going on?
