I thought all characters were well played but ya, she was notably excellent. That second last episode was brilliant.

Yep that was the episode I was thinking of alright.

A remake of Threads is planned.

Watched it recently enough after it was spoken about on here. It was fantastic.

S3 of The White Lotus at least as good as the previous ones. Apart from a handful of exceptions across the whole thing, it's really been a showcase for great performances of complex characters. Even Schwarzenegger's wee lad!

It was probably the most Mike White season of it too, reminded me of his earlier movies.

I never thought to look up who he was. What else has he done?

Chuck and Buck,The Good Girl & Enlightened would be the ones that'd be in line with The White Lotus.

He's fairly prolific as the studios tend to draft him in to punch up a lot of scripts so there's a load of generic Tentpole comedies in his credits and he's one of the lads who probably inherited a lot of Carrie Fisher's uncredited script doctor work.

Okay, it is the Mike White I had a hunch it was then, although I've not seen any of those films.

This is interesting, a short film following on from Oz. A mate just sent it on to me, I hadn't heard of it 'til now:

Oh wow. Never heard of it either. Will watch that later on. Oz was some show.


Aye, despite all the prison sex.

It seems like a fanmade thing like that Punisher Dirty Laundry short from a few years back, but could well be the set up for a series. I don't know anything about it, not much online about it.

S1 of Peaky Blinders was decent, if not quite as good as I'd have been expecting.

Really enjoying the new Black Mirror so far.

Working my way through The Pitt. It's excellent so far.
