its very good. I thought it was starting to run a bit out of steam a few episodes in, but its picked up again

Glenn from the Walking Dead is deadly.

It remains satisfying until the end

 

[David Kronenbourg]

Turned off so many shows recently after a few episodes. So much garbage on

 

[therealjohnny]

Was saving Succession to binge watch. Spoilers everywhere has dampened my enthusiasm

 

[David Kronenbourg]

It's a good show but I am looking forward to it not being on anymore. It's a bit exhausting.

 

[therealjohnny]

I agree. They are so un likeable and it's all so tense that I will also be glad when it's over.

I found this weeks episode genuinely moving ..I had compassion for these monsters

 

[Unicron]

Watched a couple of episodes of Beef last night. Really good stuff.

 

[rettucs]

I watched Unstable. Basically Chris Traeger with science. But its worth the watch,

I watched the first two episodes of Big Door Prize and I'm enjoying it so much, I might stop watching and get the book

This has gone a little bit Terry & June, just with f-bombs and lesbians and sex jokes and dead teenagers

Go on…..

Go on…..

The early episodes were good - some intrigue.
Why do we explore other versions of ourselves?
If we're not already who we truly want to be, then do the people in our lives love the 'wrong' person?
Why do we need our potential shown to us.

I am not a fan of hijinks
And people falling over and their pants falling down sort of stuff
I think I have limited patience for watching people resolve trauma also


Gonna give it a few more episodes

First episode of Mrs Davis was a blast

 

[David Kronenbourg]

Dead Ringers. Good so far. Squirm inducing

 

[GO]

The Diplomat. Excrable. But I'm enjoying it

This is great. Absolutely fucken stupeh, but class. Reminds me a little bit of Preacher, but not really? Great to see Russ Hanneman show up

Yeah. Put me in mind of Good Omens or American Gods, but there's bits of everything in there, I think.
Really entertaining TV. All over the shop, and still keeps you engaged.

Great to see Russ Hanneman show up

That guy fucks.
Stellar supporting cast up and down.
I will take all the Elizabeth Marvel you got.

Pretty sure it’s super blasphemous.

Pretty sure it’s super blasphemous.

Oh yeah
There's a scene near the end of Ep03 that reminds me of that famous Terry Pratchett line

“If complete and utter chaos was lightning, then he'd be the sort to stand on a hilltop in a thunderstorm wearing wet copper armour and shouting 'All gods are bastards!”



The thing it reminds me most of is Hitchhikers, but nothing too specific; like just that the showrunner must love Douglas Adams

 

[MacDara]

Dead Ringers. Good so far. Squirm inducing

Watched the first one on Friday. It’s got a different feel from the Cronenberg film, which is good. Rachel Weisz is playing it more stagey than everyone else in the cast, which I’m not so sure about.

Squirm inducing

I wish I could enjoy this kind of thing.

I feel like it cuts me off from a lot of stuff.
