All episodes out today.
Episode 9043 of Poldark, and Ross does something or other; who cares? More importantly, here's a pic of Domestos Demelza:
Oh feck off, GLOW's an actual romp. Think it's the most I've enjoyed a Netflix show really....helps that no one is seemingly forcing it on me(yet). It's nothing groundbreaking, all the 80's tropes are generally there, but it just works, and well, Alison Brie chews it up, she's nuts, her Fight Club-esque wrestling herself is hysterical.
Just seen half the first episode. It's good enough to give it a season atleast.
Too soon. I fell out of love with Mad Men at some point, but it really redeemed itself in the end.
I don't understand this thread lovefest about The Leftovers. I started season 3, but couldn't continue beyond ep 2, it was so bad.
Did you not enjoy season 2?
I liked S1 better. I mean the initial premise was promising. But then 'Lost' like Christian mystical mumbo jumbo began to creep in, and everything, at least for me, went rapidly downhill.
That's quite unusual. I seem to like season 1 a lot more than most people but still thought season 2 was on another level and season 3 continues at that level. I also thought the season 3 premiere was brilliant. If you're expecting answers then it was probably wise to give up as very little is resolved or explained.
just finished it, was interesting.
next series on picasso apparently
Bosch is good- Amazon- detective from books by Michael Connelly
Deutschland 83 from Sundance was great. Cold war stuff in east/west Germany

Preacher season 2 has started , first 2 eps are out there.
Finally seen The Exorcist. Never did care much about the film and the subject matter, so postponed and postponed the start of the series. It was good though, glad I've seen it. Maybe the plot wasn't its high point, but quite liked the cast and characters, priests and the Rances both. Short season too, which is another plus.
Guess they'll go with the priests only in next season, as the story of Rance family looks quite over. Also, glad for the final scene.

Did you guys watch The Mist yet? 3 episodes out so far, pretty darn good. It's based on the Stephen King novel.
For the Narcos type people, there's Ozark (not out yet, i think) and El Chapo.

I liked the movie The Mist. How does the tv show differ?
Coronation Street.
Anybody else like the docu-shows they have on the Discovery Channel? I've been a fan of Wicked Tuna, Biggest Catch, Ice Road Truckers, Gold Divers and the like for a few years now. There's a new show only 3 episodes in called Devils Canyon - this article explains it much better than I ever could:

Thanks for the tip, I love both gold mining, general mining shows and survival shows. Think I've seen every gold mining show out there.
Will check this out.
Little known tip if you've seen most gold mining shows is 'Aussie gold hunters', it is about 4 crews mining in different ways in the outback. Not any fake drama and the likes but just mining and prospecting.
Im guessing its just an elongated version of the movie but like how much more can you expand on it?
Any fans of Blackish on here? It's slowly become one of my favourite comedies.
I'm watching it. I do quite like it, and Anthony Anderson is excellent as per. But I think alot of episodes are hit or miss, Doesn't seem to be a middle ground with it. That might just be me though.
Exactly. It's got 5.4 on imdb. Think I'll give it a miss.
So what's the general thoughts on 'El Chapo'?
It's a fantastic show.
My wife is watching Love Island every night, and theres only so much I can watch on the WWE Network without getting burned out so Ive starting watching Sherlock from the beginning on Netflix. Enjoying it but having a short attention span and an inability to binge watch anything is a bit of a problem when it comes to watching tv shows. 
Anyone watched Taboo? How is it?
I thought it was pretty shite, it's just hours of Tom Hardy grunting
Yeah it's a borefest.
Nice. I see TNT have a show called 'Will' about Shakespeare coming out this July
Currently hooked on 2 Broke Girls
I liked the film , I just wanted more from it, did not know this was even out.
Straight on my to watch list.
Yeah, it's a bit superhero-ish, but I still enjoyed it. Narcos are better though.
good show too.
Did you know that one of the actors was singer Kate Nash who had a one hit wonder in the UK in like 2009ish?
And we even got to see her boobs. 2007 me would have loved that. Actually 2017 me kinda liked it too, they were quite nice.
This is yet another time Mystry when I agree with every word of your post.
I enjoyed the show,
but wish they'd have shown more of the first part of his life, ie the build up to his arrest, his rivalry with the cartel. Maybe that should have been season 1, rather than him being in prison. Having said that the prison bit would have been quite boring if i was just focused on that rather than the flashbacks to his past.
Pretty similar premise. It's just that they've dramatized the whole thing and built up the characters greatly. It's totally worth a watch in my opinion, especially if you've watched the film
Watched it this week, really enjoyed it, a lot of laugh out loud moments.
