mjmooney Posted April 18, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 OK. Daisy Jones and The Six. We stuck with it to the end. It did get a little better, certainly watchable. Although I still think it was corny and predictable. Let's face it, if you know anything at all about Fleetwood Mac - or any 70s rock band, really - you already know the story. Wide-eyed innocence - paying dues - euphoric success - disillusionment - booze - drugs - affairs - mutual loathing - split. But it did look good, and the music was reasonable generic AOR (they all actually sang and played their instruments, competently enough). I fully expect the sequel to be 'Daisy Jones and The Six Reunion Tour' in a year or so. On balance, 6/10 (see what I did there?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I'm loving Ashley Thomas's portrayal of Jaggers in Great Expectations. Far less of a caricature than in previous adaptations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sheepyvillian Posted April 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2023 Definitely looking forward to season 4 of True Detective. This one is set in the long winter of Alaska and has Jodie Foster playing the lead and John Hawkes who was brilliant in Winter's Bone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Got back to watching Shadow and Bone. I quite like the story, and tbf, I'm not the greatest fantasy fan. I do have a soft spot for Alina, but no need to do that to her "gregory", put me right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I thought they toned it down a bit in this series! The last one was crazy. The lead actress is stunning and the main reason I watch really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Kinda hated the final episode(s) of Snowfall. Went the way I thought they would with the ending so a hugely disappointing end to a great series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted April 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 21, 2023 Finished Red Rose. Enjoyable, even though it didn't quite land the ending for me. Very Black Mirroresque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Follyfoot Posted April 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 21, 2023 Just watched the first episode of series 8 of inside number nine. Quite a good start and twist as usual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Slightly OT I watched a 2014 film called Full English Breakfast last night, "starring" Dave Courtney as a retired drugs baron. I love a good geezer film but eff me this was SO bad I had to see it through to the end ! Crap storyline, worse acting and utterly awful soundtrack.....which ended off with the theme song being played as the credits rolled. The lyrics were pretty much the ingredients of a FEB with the words "full english breakfast Dave ? Well, I haven't come in for a curry have I ?" being played during it. All to the tune of "oh I do love to be beside the seaside " Utter gash. Its on YouTube if you were curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 First episode of Mrs Davis was rather fun. Strong Preacher vibes. It's a Damon Lindelof show so I don't have great hopes but the opening ep was better than your usual nun with ties to the Templar Knights fighting against an evil algorithm trying to find the holy grail or something show. First 4 eps are out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
