3 episodes into the first season of Marcella. Seems decent enough so far.
Meanwhile those of us who can access Your Honor can bask in the drama excellence of Bryan Cranston and  the understated menace of Omar Little.

Omar Little?

Indeed. Don't think he's in it though. Clay Davis is for sure.

Nah, I think I realise now who he meant - Danavian Lewis played by Martin Bats Bradford

The Clay Davis actor plays the exact same character in Your Honor!

As an aside, does anyone spend half their time on imdb these days when watching somethin?

Yes, it is just as important as the watching itself

Usually just to prove the wife wrong when we disagree about what was yer man in  ;D

Amazon handily tells you the names of the actors in the scene when you hit pause.  Always aids the google search

Omar Little?

Is he in Your Honor or are you mixing him up with someone else?
After his "interrogation" in ep 2 ,  the car thief received a call from  Omar (or his twin brother), requesting him "to take the hit, I have your back".

Always been a wikipedia man myself, or if a show is big enough you are lucky enough to get a fandom version that gives you loads of trivia and easter eggs etc. too.

Yes! The missus can't watch anything without saying "I know him/her from somewhere". Episode guide on imdb is the lifesaver.

No for me the worst feature google now has on films is the rotten tomatoes ratings.. I hate reviews I like the general gist of a film, that's it.

If its got decent actors and made by a decent film maker/production then I'll give it a whirl, this ditching it before it starts annoys the f**k out of me
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

IMBD was grand when they had a discussion board and if you had a question about anything in a  film or tv program , just go to the discussion thread  and more often than not, the question was already asked and answered. They stopped the board-- moderation issues.  Ziggy Ego would have sorted them out in no time.

I started watching Parks and Recreation lately as it is now on Netflix.
I had never seen it before . It's very good and I'm flying through the episodes.

But what genius came up with the great idea that the master actor Gabriel lasts just 2 episodes?
I felt cheated.

It didn't suffer at all for it though. Some great performances in it.

Also, spoiler alert there!!

It was similar enough in Vikings I think. I wonder is that the kind of work he's after. Short and sweet.

I found the first episode of ZZZ very hard work. But then took off nicely.
