 My cinema hd app doesn't seem to be pulling in watchable streams of ep 3 and 4 of Succession which is highly annoying, anyone any alternative suggestions as to how I can catch up and see these latest episodes?

I remember watching the early seasons and you couldn't like any of them. All so unpleasant in their dealings with anyone and willing to drop people at the drop of a hat.

Last night took me back to that. Last few weeks you'd have been rooting somewhat for the kids, they pulled together, working as a group and moving on. Last night at first sign of openings they back to own ways and all too willing to knife each other for their own advancement, even if it's obviously short term.

Some great lines as always - Tom getting reminded of his place; Greg trying to find out what his place is; Kerry been sent to her place out the back door.  :)

Also they talked about Logan having no friends when it obvious they the same. They didn't even know that the security guy had family. They never look inward.

It's some show, never wastes a line in the dialogue.

Wonder how the Murdochs like it? The auld lad won't be around for ever. Whose name is on the piece of paper? :D

Night Agent was a decent watch.

Been watching House again from the start, loved it first time round and its just as good this time round (3rd time for most of it).

Finished "Anatomy of a scandal" last night on Netflix
Excellent show.  The twist halfway through really got me.

Thoroughly enjoyed The Diplomat on Netflix. Moves along at a decent pace.

Kin is fairly heating up.  I am enjoying this series much more than i enjoyed the first.

Kin season 2 is better. The daughter Anna is the worst actress ever though.

Citadel on Amazon Prime seems good so far.

Started watching that sitcom Colin from Accounts on BBC iplayer. really enjoyable Aussie comedy and it's only half an hour so goes by quickly.

Well worth a watch!

Nearly 10 years late to the party but True Detective Season 1was one of the best series I have watched in along time Harrelson and McConaughey  were outstanding in it (doubt the Louisiana tourism board would have enjoyed it as much through)

It finished brilliant. If I remember right, first 5 or 6 episodes were slow enough though. The jumping back and forward through the years added alot to it too.
Yep it was a slow burn for the first  few episodes but so worth it ,  also had one of the most unnerving/creepy antagonist's in any series/film I have seen

Flip me how have I never heard about this? One episode to go on the first season...excellent show

The first series was excellent. Definitely up there. One episode Woody Harrelson was the luckiest man on the planet lol. The rest of the series were absolute rubbish considering the stars  and budget.

First season was some of the best tv there's ever been.  Two fantastic actors at the peak of their powers.  Second season I gave up on; it was just terrible.
Third season I also really liked.  Although it wasn't up to the standard of season 1, it was still really good.

Finished season 2 and meh...at times I was thinking okay this is getting good, at times I was thinking what the Feck is going on, at times I was thinking Vince Vaughn is brutal...still watched it to the end and then the last episode I was like 'you mother f#$kers' to the writers. Shite ending

Love Harrelson and McConaghey. Apparently they could be brothers too.
