Re-watching Maniac. Very much up my street - mind-bending and with lots of People Being Nice To Each Other. Also has Emma Stone

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

Fully caught up with What We Do in the Shadows now. Still magnificent.

 

[David Kronenbourg]

Reservation Dogs. Yeah, this is good but not quite sure the tone or audience they're going for. Not quite YA, not quite adult oriented. It's good though, spirited performances all round

Picking up Game Of Thrones where we left it about 4 years ago. I'm waiting for the penny to drop and actually remember who the fuck they are and what the fuck is going on.

Once, when I was in A Dark Place mentally, a friend let me house sit for her, and it included pirated GOT. She was trying to help.
So I sat there for a few days, broke, cold, hungry, but somehow always drunk, watching S4 and S5.

When I cleaned my shit up later, I had to rewatch the whole thing. Twice.

I think I need to rewatch it again. Was it actually any good or was it all just tits and swords?

Was watchable while Robson/Jerome and Peter Dinklage, and The Hound and Arya were teamed up and then went to shit after that.

The owl service,
On YouTube. Originally aired 1969 into 1970. I've seen this mentioned on folk horror lists. Old legions, family secrets and strange going ons in an old house in the Welsh countryside. Not bad. It's very slow moving but looks good (shot on film) I liked the atmosphere & the one playing Alison (Gillian Hills) is gorgeous.

Reservation Dogs

Kinda like On My Block, but with Native American kids. Its fine. A bit slow moving at the start but good fun overall.

 

[David Kronenbourg]

Letterkenny. Comedy about a group of small town Canadian hicks who love fighting, drinking and chatting shit. Aamazing.

Watched episode 1 of The Rehearsal. I liked it. My wife DID NOT.
I'll be watching the rest on my own.

Love, love the book, the author is one of the most interesting (albeit inconsistent) English authors of the past 50 years imho, and he was heavily involved with making that adaptation, and I still found it almost unwatchable! Probably too slow moving for me, would you say I should go back and try again?

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

It has a voice over thing that reminds you what happened in the previous episode and when things start getting a bit out-of-the-ordinary I found that most of what was explained by the voice had gone totally over my head.

 

[Lili Marlene]

Its all based on part of the Welsh saga thing, Mabinogion, specifically the Blodeuwedd character, which I have to admit I haven't read, never mind reading it in the original Welsh.

Blodeuwedd - Wikipedia


The ending is weird in the book, I'm iffy about what it's saying, something about education saving stupid rural idiots who are stuck in their stupid rural life cycles. It doesn't sit right with his other stuff, which is incredibly ambivalent, if not downright hostile, to formal education. I should read the Mabinogion... I'm probably wrong about the message.

First two episodes of The English ..brilliant

Maybe....if there's another lockdown.

Still enjoying this? I found it had run it’s course after a few episodes. Very parochial.

Yeah, I was over it after three episodes

Highlight reels on youtube are the best way to watch Letterkenny. Bit like the real town in that regard, best in small doses.

There's a few dragons as well.

Atlanta season 4. One of the best shows ever
