I'm in over my head here

Ha. Just get one that says "ENG subs" or something like that.

Which means english subtitles.

I'm watching this German yoke - Unsere Mutter, unsere Vater. A German friend sent it.
WWII from the German perspective. Only three episodes, but quite good for all that.

Thanks a million for the heads up on this. Watching it because of your post. Excellent so far (just one episode left)...

Nathan For You

This is my favorite new comedy series at the moment.. Nathan Fielder, a very deadpan Canadian comedian, travels around the US presenting himself as a marketing guru to various real small businesses. He comes up with very risky, bordering on ludicrous ideas to bring customers in, presents them to the business owner with a totally straight face and then they actually implement them and film the results. Couple of clips to get the idea:

Is this guy not screwing with people's livelihoods?

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

I watched Ken Burns' The War the last few days

It really brought home the ferocity and relentless nature of the conflict. About 16 hours of TV and very moving.

Told from the American POV so it may not be of interest to you guys.

Yeah a little bit.. The impression I get though is that the publicity from being on the show outweighs any short term negative effects his stunts might have. He pays for it if they lose money as a direct result of his ideas, also.

Has anyone here watched Luther?

The only people that seem to like it are women. Is the show just Idris Elba being sexy?

i didn't think much. the few episodes i watched managed to be both formulaic and completely presposterous at the same time.
