Ya, you'd be back into the swing of it in 1 or 2 eps. They do the "Previously on..." every now and then too, especially if a character is making an appearance after an absence.

I think they realised they were going nowhere SLOWLY half way through season 2 of Gotham and then just said 'Fuck It'.
When it changes tack and things get a little mental, the whole thing starts to spiral... but in a good way.

Yeah it kind of wait to being a bit of a good but standard cop/mob show to just lashing a load more comic style stuff, but for the most part it worked really well

City on a Hill looks really good.  I'll never see it unless it ends up on telly or Netflix though.

Mindhunters season 2 was good but not as good as season 1. It focused too much on that single story which is fair enough,  but the parts I really enjoy are the interviews with the serial killers.

Tea Tv app on your phone and Chromecast in telly. Sorted.

I'm losing the will to live just contemplating such a hugely mind bending process.

Lol. It's so easy even you Andy could manage it.

Thought the love story was weak. I get they're trying to big up the lesbian thing, show how difficult it was etc, but they took so much focus off of her actual work as a female in that world that for me it missed the mark on all counts. She's a cool character, she likes box, yeah we get it like ffs, let her do her job.

I was referring to the case that they were following.  It dragged on and gave very little back in return.  I think the son's story would have been more exciting to follow closely,  but that was kind of only hinted at.  It would have made the whole thing a lot more tense.

Yep, been very few films and shows I haven't been able to find on it. Only problem I find is the sound can randomly jump up to full volume, but I'm not sure if that's a problem with the app itself or my TV which is getting fairly old at this point

Yep, definitely agree on that point too and though I wasn't always sold on the kid storyline either, it definitely relates to where they're going with the story. In terms of acting and overall presentation I really enjoyed it. The case itself, well there are better ones, and I didn't find it particularly mindblowing, but I'm hoping that whole BTK storyline in the next series will be great. I think they're trying to show just how shit policework was before they started to really utilise this Quantico psychology strategy. It definitely wasn't as cool or as interesting as the first series and yet I watched it all in 2 days where normally I'd turn something off if I wasn't into it.

On a separate note, I have bumped into very few 'famous people' in my life, but I was in a lift in a building in LA around 20 years ago with my then girlfriend and that big dude detective actor walked in, the guy with the psycho kid. I recognised him and said 'you're that actor from 3 kings no?' where he proceeded to say yes and use it as a way to try and flirt verrry heavily with my then 19 yr old gf...like a dog with a bone he was  :laugh: dirty fucker

Fed up of netflix, was having a look around at what else might be worth trying. Using Amazon Video a week now. 7 days free then 2.99 per month for the first 6 months cancel anytime.
Came across Jean Claude Van Johnson.. 3 episodes in... its the best :D

Started watched the comedy show "Letterkenny". Stories from a small town in Canada. Absolutely fucking hilarious. Only discovered it last week and have rifled through 3 seasons already. Dialogue is fantastic. If you haven't seen it get on it.
