Quantum Leap was brilliant back in the day. Hope the movie does it justice.

Outcast is pretty good - Season 1 finishes up here at the weekend. It's a supernatural horror story that features people involved in demonic possession.

Based on the comics created by Walking Dead guy Robert Kirkman. It airs on Cinemax/HBO over here.

The first show I can remember watching, along with Macgyver.  I was only 8 or 9 so a lot of it is hazy.

There's a remake of Mcgyver about to be released soon.
Mcgyver and The A Team were my favourites growing up.

Hadn't heard that, good news, was a big fan. It's that sort of an interesting concept it could make a really good movie.

The Night of shaping up rightly. Hard to tell if he killed her or not.

What movie? I was a major Quantum Leap fan back in the day and was one of the pathetic fools back in the 90s that wrote letters to NBC to extend the series for an extra couple of the years. I also had a Quantum Leap website. http://web.archive.org/web/20010404075306/http://www.quantumleaping.co.uk/ * I was unemployed and had nothing better to do with my time.

Didn't know there was a movie being made.

I guess motive is either unrated with you or an alien concept.

Regardless, I don't think it's  a whodoneit drama, the story is in the telling.

They keep putting in more and more potential suspects and persons of interest, I'm looking forward to finding out what went on that night. Meanwhile your man in prison is doing a better and better job of convincing us he is either someone capable of committing the murder, or turning into someone capable of committing the murder. Prison is definitely not a place I would want to go. I have no idea what to expect.

At the start I was like "Why do they keep focusing on the f**king feet all the time" . . . I can see why now after last night, it's a strange but interesting theme and me and the wife did some laughing when he showed up at the support group!!

Workaholics is still a class show.

'Stranger Things' is really floating my boat at the minute.

Started it last night. Two episodes in and so far I'm liking it. That 011 or "El" is an amazing wee actor for all the age of her.

Yip, she'd break your heart. The show ticks all my nostalgia boxes, Goonies, Starfighter, navagator..stand by me...all rolled into one. And the soundtrack and score are superb.
