The Get Down: way too much "wack" and not nearly enough "get down" so far.

2 episodes from the end of Making A Murderer and I'm bored with it. I don't actually care who goes to jail and who doesn't. Does this make me a bad person?

Public libraries are not to be underestimated. I have gotten a bit of a pain in my hoop recently with streaming/torrenting/whatever (possibly due to the wireless going to shit) and was down in the local library yesterday and picked up DVD set of Olive Kitteridge which I've been meaning to track...

Just Google it. Yes it is. I'm excited now.

Is this the new drama series he has been working on?

I thought the Jonathan Strange adaptation was very disappointing too. It got the tone all wrong in my view.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmitt - new Tina Fey- written thing. Something decent enough on Netflix.

I get what you mean about the dialogue. I felt the same about the West Wing and it took me quite a while to get over wanting to punch every overly smug oh-so-clever character in the fact. People don't/can't talk like that. I did warm to it after a while though. I enjoyed the Newsroom but found...

The Honourable Woman - Brit spy story about Israel/Palestine. Maggie Glnnenthal (sp?) is in it. It's all a bit John Le Carre and very good indeed.

Two episodes into Top Of The Lake. It's excellent.

They have aired. Watched them a few weeks ago ....

Just finished Season 3 of Justified. Good stuff again but maybe it's run its course now. Watched first two episodes of Sons Of Anarchy as it's on Netflix now and I never got around to watching any of it the first time around. Very promising.

Also, none of Sorkins characters have lives outside of their work. Work is the only possible fulfilment in life. Work as utopia etc etc

That's what I always felt about West Wing. It was more about work and office politics than it was about politics per se. Haven't seen Newsroom yet but am surprised that no-one seems to mention that there was a Canadian series with exactly the same title about much the same thing a few years...

I'm most of the way though watching this. It's good but the thing I don't like about it is that it goes on for 20 episodes so its completely obvious that the guy who is the suspect in Episode 2 is not the guy who did it. Nor the new suspect in Episode 4. Nor the one in Episode 6. Etc etc. In...

I don't know your reference but I think that is exactly what he is - I.e. Unwilling to bend to social convention. The whole thing is about etiquette, the dilemma of how exactly one should behave in various social situations. Every episode hangs on one of these dilemmas. In some cases he's a...

Season 2 of Justified. Great stuff

I liked it too. It's pretty light I suppose but very enjoyable.

Slowly paced? You think so? Start of the first episode he's a mild-mannered science teacher with a wife and two kids. End of the first episode he's standing in the middle of the desert in his underpants, with a gun in his hand, a cop car fast approaching, and two dead Columbian drug dealers in...

I was prepared for that but didn't really feel there was that much of it really. Except for some portentuous announcements from the John character ...
