Started watching 'Patria' there, Spanish language mini series about ETA and, and the murder of a businessman they were trying to extort. It's an intriguing show. ETA were a right shower of bastards with the extortion, kidnapping ostracism and killing, although that is only the backdrop to deeper familial and friendship ruptures.

Recommended if you don't mind subtitles. Many Spaniards can't tolerate them at all, although less so with younger people. Dubbed shite is pure unwatchable for me (and probably all of you) so there you go.

I always have a Spanish language series I dip into, keep a toe in the water with the missus' lingo, and Patria is next up on the list. Currently I'm about half way through Farina which is about the contraband tobacco and coke runners in Galicia in the 80s. It's actually pretty damn good.

I like to treat everyone the same but if ya come out with the line "I dont like subtitles". Done. Out ta fuck.

I tried watching a few things dubbed but quickly switched back to subtitles once I realised that dubbed is the worst thing ever.

The only dubbing I can sit through is animated stuff, with a good voice cast it's grand, though there's sometimes a strange run-on of sentences in Japanese work, what with matching up different speech patterns.

We won't mention the early dubbed version of Akira.

The only dubbed film I liked was District 13, and I reckon that was because its a bit of a mindless action film and being dubbed just added to the silliness

Been rewatching Misfits the last while, bloody great stuff - X-Men by way of mouthy Brit delinquents.

Watching a French one, Spotless. Crime scene cleaner finds himself in all sorts of bother. Darkly funny and pretty good story with a nice bit of violence.

I finally got around to the marvel shows on Netflix. I'm going to watch them in the suggested order.
Well from now on I will.  I watched the 2 seasons of punisher. 
Season 1 of Daredevil finished. That was good bar the baldy bad fella sounding like he was trying to hold in a shit with every word. It seemed as it progressed his need to shit got worse.

Taking a wee break between seasons of The Sopranos. A girl in work recommended The Virtues, which one of the French stations is streaming, but it's actually an ITV production by the director of This Is England and starring Jason Statham's side-kick from Snatch. It's powerful stuff, have to say.

Edit: Should have said, tis only a 4 episode thing. I guess it's available on the ITV player but I haven't checked.

Finished The Americans. Really really good show. A real spy thriller. The last episode is probably my favourite ending of a tv show ever. A flawless finale to a show that never got the credit it deserved.

You can say that again; don't think I've ever heard of it til now!

When you see how many shows fail to round it off in the finalé, it really is a credit that they did so so well. Definitely an underrated gem.
