What TV series are you watching at moment?

Is the Preacher actor still bored shitless?

yes

The Defiant Ones - Weird corporate propaganda doco about Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre. I have no idea why HBO is airing this, but I learned that you can't have 'a normal marriage if your husband is a genius'. Really weird watching a dude talk about the artistic struggle in his $10s of millions beach house/second home and his yacht cruising the Amalfi Coast.

Tarantino possibly doing a Charles Manson mini series:

I was pretty impressed with Castlevania. Wish there were more episodes. Especially like how it's following the story from Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse. That game was awesome when I was like 8 years old.

Definitely not my youths version of Castlevania, but I enjoyed the gritty take on it nonetheless.

Good stuff! I quit Netflix for a few months while I go through box sets I get from Sky. Looking forward to plunging back in and catching things like this!

That sounds like the life. I mean I don't care about GoT but nonetheless.

what i like it for is only the shameless portrayal of disgusting and obnoxious women with their disgusting problems, that works even despite the characters being total cartoons. i'm not aware of any other tv/film that fleshes this out so blatantly.

Thanks for articulating what I like about OitNB, I was never able to put my finger on it. It's a nice antidote to the curated, phony femininity you see everywhere else. Would be cool if a better show provided this.

Jodie Whittaker will be the first female Doctor Who ever:

She was OK on that episode of Black Mirror, but Doctor Who is just an awful show.

It's more of a symbolic step, I know a young woman who worships Doctor Who and she was absolutely floored.

every major character dies within the first 15 minutes of the first ep, the rest of the episode is a clever and allegorical 45 minute montage of samwell tarly cleaning librarians' shit. as brave and audacious as one would expect from this landmark show.

6/10

I rather enjoyed it for the slowburn it was. Not sure if they're doing a second season, but I'd be down for it.

A barrel aged dickensian tale sprinkled with a helping of smoked bath salts.

Yes, just watch the first episode, if you don't like it, give the show a skip, it pretty much the same throughout. If you like watching Tom Hardy walking around London docks scheming in that outfit you're up for a good time.
