Homegrove I’m ok with that, they clearly had no intention of keeping it going after the first season. Too bad, I though it had a lot of potential.

    I thought RBW was good too and had potential . Shame . Looking forward to the new series of For All Mankind . Mars here we come !

    Watched a WACO documentary on Sky last few nights.

    Quite interesting but seemed to skirt the “why did they go in” question.

    Mad government fucks had tanks, choppers and all kinds of shit, seemed well over the top.

    Interesting to see Timothy McVeigh in the crowds that were gathering in the early days of siege

    Homegrove …camera work, styling, art direction were all so beautifully done in the first series, the first half of which was particularly good. When it was just the two androids raising the kids in isolation there was a purity to it (in combination with the title sequence/music which I LOVE) that was kinda lost in the latter part of S1 as soon as the religious nutters were introduced, and a couple of moments aside, S2 has been a real disappointment.

    What is it with sci-fi series that they end up introducing more and more characters until they become soaps about some fucking ramshackle community on a foreign planet?… it’s almost like the writers give up and are desperate to revert to Coronation-Street-on-Mars. Anyone remember Spielberg’s Terra Nova?

      The Outlaws series 2 ep 1. Very strong start to what was an excellent first series. A couple of priceless comic moments when Merchant’s character tries to chat up a work colleague (in the lift and club)

      Not knowing anything about the story the ending of We Own This City really packed a bunch. If it was not a real story everyone would say it was way over the top.

      Homegrove that car/bike chase was amazing. There’s a break down of it on YouTube, the variety channel I think, which is quite interesting. Bill Hader reaching genius levels with this season.

          Homegrove started watching that a few days ago and nearly finished the second season. It’s very good, had never heard of it before

            Needed to watch some cat videos after the season finale. I really hope he gets into directing movies after season 4. His episodes are the best. Really happy he’s going to direct all of season 4.

              I don’t care what anyone thinks… zero fucks… I’m really enjoying Everything I Know About Love on the IPlayer … it’s warm, funny and, erm, girly…. Love it 👍

                Homegrove just watched the last episode of series 3. Fucking brilliant.

                The progression from being quite comical in series 1 to pretty dark in series 3 was really well done. Looking forward to the 4th installment.

                  Blocco 181.
                  New Italian drug gang series set in Milan. No Gomorrah but then what is. Couple of episodes in and liking it so far. Seems to be focusing on a Romeo and Juliet type relationship across the gangs.

                  Jules72 I mean fair play to you for owning up to this. The trailer for it makes me want to baseball bat my TV. It looks shite.

                    Hot water bottle for your tummy, Jules?

                      Sherwood is bloody brilliant. Anyone else watching?

                        Yep. It’s half decent. All based on a true story I believe.
