What TV series are you watching at moment?

Another good episode of "the night of" - except for one major quibble - the end of the last episode (Episode 5) seemed like a cliffhanger, and they just open with Turturro cleaning the cat shit from the litter? And no follow up at all?

Anyways they have a lot left to wrap up in 3 episodes - hope it doesn't get too sloppy.

this foot illness thing in The Night Of is/was annoying

I started watching Les Revenants and I like it.

why?

The eczema had its day in Episode 1. They really didn't need to dedicated 5 minutes of screen time to it in every episode. 

yeh...

the Box character vs Naz thing in the first three episodes or so was pretty great, would have rather seen more of him than the foot thing tbqh. It's still good, not as great as it started tho imho.

But guys, he got a cat and some healing tiger dick powder. Symmetry.

Really? It shows his flaws as a character, and I don't mean physical ones.

Wheeler Dealers

cars you'd never buy with jobs you'd leave to serious professionals, hosted by 1 bloke who's a short arsed mockney bobby dazzler & the other a lanky more foppy-haired English middle-class type who at some point seems to have converted his interests from model railways to cars. Neither have beards btw, this aint no Richard Rawlins muscle car bollix (cant believe i know that cunt's name)

dont mean to watch, but, just occasionally, if its summat like a Scimitar or an olde Maxi......the TV equivalent of Burger King

Mr Robot is still the hottest shit

it's lit

Lush Anal Stabbing

i don't even know what's happening in this show anymore and frankly don't really care that much, those "OMG WTF!!! twists are becoming tiring, law of diminishing returns and such...

Are they even twists though? For the most part they're so telegraphed that Elliot's the only one who could be surprised by them.

lol. this.

Watched the four last episodes of preacher after giving up on it and taking a break. It ended up being ok I guess, I don't really like any of the people in it other than vampire guy and asshole face. Not sure if I'll return for next season. Such wasted potential. It's fun when it goes nuts, but that happens way too rarely.

just finished the first season of mr robot last nite. just realized that you can just stream current episodes from usa's site and i don't have to wait for them to come up on prime... i haven't been current on a tv series in like 15 years ;O

What's so confusing about it?

The Night Of is pretty good. John Turturro in this totally reminds me of this guy I work with that was a private detective in the 80's, so the whole time I watch it I pretend it's him. Lols abound.

Downloaded both seasons of Amazing Stories, I used to love that one as a kid.

As much as the show outright steals every creative and technical idea that Stanley Kubrick came up with, the show rewards people who look for details and observations on how things are communicated  Not just what the characters say or do but a lot of the camera work, the chess game moves, music, scenery and computer code are also telling different stories at the same time.  There was a lot of foreshadowing with Elliot's twists so they were not unexpected (except the part with finding out who Darlene was in Season 1) Also the show covering the aftermath of what a large, economy destroying hack would do to the world (everyone continuing to live their lives as normal due to habit, the rich being fine off and the working class being even more fucked) is refreshing.

The bigger problem with the show is that it blatantly steals its main American Psycho, Fight Club, and all of Kubricks Films. From the role of Elliot's delusions of living in television shows though it might be related.

someone give me an idea of where to find season 2. i thought i could stream it from the usa site but now it's asking me for fuckin' cable credentials x_x
